Orthodontics: Achieving a Healthy and Beautiful Smile

Orthodontic Dental Treatment with Our orthodontic specialist at Bloomfield Dental Center, Dr. Youssef, has undergone extensive training and possesses vast experience in providing individualized orthodontic treatments that cater to the specific needs of each patient. Dr. Youssef specializes in correcting a wide range of dental issues, including overcrowding, spacing, and malocclusions, through the use of innovative orthodontic procedures, such as braces, aligners, and other dental appliances. Under Dr. Youssef’s care, patients can achieve a beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime.

Diagnostics (Evaluation)

The first step in the orthodontic treatment process is the diagnostic (evaluation) phase. During this phase, Dr. Youssef will evaluate your overall health and dental issues to ensure that they are under control before treatment begins. This may involve taking X-rays to see the root of each tooth and to determine any pre-existing damage, as well as using an intraoral camera to take photographs of your existing case for diagnostics. The goal of this step is to ensure that we are underlying any dental issues so we can address them before treatment begins.

Casting

After evaluating your dental health, our team will take the next step by creating a model of your teeth, which plays a crucial role in determining the position of each tooth and its relation to the others. To accomplish this, we utilize a process known as casting, in which we take an impression of your teeth to create an accurate representation of your dental structure. Once we have completed the model, we can design a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific dental needs. Our team will work collaboratively with you throughout the process, ensuring that your treatment plan is tailored to your unique situation, resulting in optimal dental health outcomes.

X-Rays

In addition to casting, Dr. Youssef may also take X-rays to get a better look at the position of your teeth and the structure of your jaw. These X-rays will help Dr. Youssef determine the best course of action for your treatment plan.

Customize a Treatment Plan

Once Dr. Youssef has evaluated your dental structure and taken X-rays, he will develop a customized treatment plan for you. The plan will take into account factors such as your age, overall health conditions, and the dental condition of the misaligned teeth that require correction. By tailoring the plan to your unique situation, our goal is to create the most effective treatment possible for you. The plan will also include recommendations for specific devices that will be best suited for your case. Our team will work with you every step of the way to ensure that you receive the best possible orthodontic care.

Start the Actual Treatment Plan

After finalizing the treatment plan, we move on to the actual treatment phase. During this phase, we may utilize braces, aligners, retainers, or other dental appliances to help move your teeth into the desired position as agreed upon in the treatment plan. Our team will continuously monitor your progress, making necessary adjustments to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. The length of your treatment may vary, typically lasting between one to two years, and is dependent on several factors. These factors may include age, overall health conditions, and the dental condition of the misaligned teeth that require correction. Rest assured that we will take the time necessary to achieve a healthy and beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime

Retention

Once the required treatment time is complete and your teeth are looking great, it’s crucial to prevent them from shifting back to their original position. To maintain the new position of your teeth, Dr. Youssef will recommend a retainer during the retention phase. Following through with this phase is essential to ensure that the results of the treatment remain permanent throughout your life.
