What Is

Orthodontics?

Your teeth and jaws must be in proper alignment in order to function properly. Orthodontics is a dental specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention and correction of misaligned teeth and malocclusions.

Some of the most common problems that orthodontists treat are overbites, underbites, dental protrusion, and crooked, crowded or gapped teeth. While it is most common to undergo treatment as adolescents, patients of all ages including adults and younger children can also benefit from proper orthodontic treatment.

Orthodontists can help young children stop harmful habits such as thumb sucking and also improve airway function. For adult patients, orthodontists often work closely with your general dentist to achieve proper tooth position for restorations or implants.

Board-Certified

Orthodontics

A board-certified orthodontist is an orthodontist who has undergone additional testing, attended a top-tier orthodontic residency program, and passed rigorous case peer reviews to meet the high standards set by the American Board of Orthodontics. Becoming board certified signifies the orthodontist’s pursuit of continued proficiency and excellence in orthodontics and only 30% of practicing orthodontists are board certified. Dr. Hsu is proud to be one of the select few Board-certified orthodontists in the Houston area.

You’re unique — and your treatment should be, too

Orthodontic treatment is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and the type of care a child or adolescent receives can be different than that of an adult. No matter what your special case requires, you can be certain that we will formulate the best treatment plan for you. Call us today for a complimentary consultation at our office in Spring, Texas.

Braces

Braces are the most common type of orthodontic treatment, and for good reason. They are simple, easy to wear, and very effective. Braces work by gently moving the teeth with a set of brackets and wires. When you get braces installed, your orthodontist will attach brackets to the surface of the teeth that need to be moved. Then, the orthodontist gradually pulls the teeth into alignment by making small adjustments to the wires that connect these brackets. The wires are held in place using rubber bands. An orthodontist can change the color of these rubber bands, giving kids a fun opportunity to customize the look of their braces.

While braces used to be large and uncomfortable, modern orthodontics has majorly improved this technology. Today’s braces have smaller brackets with a more subtle look and a greater ability to subtly move the teeth. Discover the benefits of modern braces for yourself at Adventure Orthodontics. Dr. Hsu has helped improve countless smiles through braces and can create a personalized orthodontic plan based on your needs.

Ceramic Braces

If you think braces are only for teenagers, think again. People of all ages use braces to straighten their teeth. While many adults choose traditional metal braces, others feel self-conscious with a mouth full of metal. Clear braces are a great alternative to traditional braces because they use the same technology in a more subtle way.

Clear braces work in the same way as traditional braces, but they use clear or tooth-colored brackets in place of dark metal brackets. These brackets are the same size and shape of traditional brackets and straighten teeth in the same amount of time. Clear braces require a little more maintenance than traditional braces because they can become discolored, but the people who choose this option find the maintenance to be well worth it.

If you want a straighter smile but don’t like the look of traditional braces, Dr. Hsu can help. Call us today to learn if clear braces are the right option for you.

Invisalign

For years, braces were the only tool that orthodontists had to straighten teeth. Clear aligners like Invisalign were first created in the 90s and have changed the game. Invisalign is a subtle and effective way to adjust teeth without using metal or wires.

Invisalign is a clear aligner that is professionally fitted to your teeth. The aligners completely cover the teeth’s surface but are designed in a way that makes them hard to notice. You will receive new aligners every few weeks that gradually shift your teeth into the correct place. Some people will need attachments to help anchor the aligners. These attachments are placed on the surface of your teeth.

One of the best things about Invisalign is that the aligners are removable. This means that you can easily brush and floss your teeth during your orthodontic treatment. You can also remove your aligners and enjoy foods that are off-limits to people with braces. If you are in interested in straightening your teeth without braces, Adventure Orthodontics can help. Call us today to schedule a consultation.

Retainers

After an orthodontist straightens your teeth, it’s important to use a retainer to maintain the changes that have been made. Teeth that have been moved with braces or aligners are likely to shift back to their original place. Retainers prevent this from happening by holding the teeth in position for a certain number of hours each day.

Retainers are custom-made devices that use hard plastic and wires to help maintain the position of your teeth after they have been straightened. Some individuals will need permanent retainers installed, while others will use a removable retainer. Permanent retainers (also known as fixed retainers) are usually recommended for patients who had significant bite issues. Removable retainers are usually recommended for people who had crowded teeth or other simple orthodontic issues. Removable retainers are often only worn at night, making them an easy way to care for the teeth.

Dr. Hsu and the team at Adventure Orthodontics can fit you with a retainer to help you maintain your orthodontic work. Call us today to learn more.
