Combination treatment - when it is necessary to combine different orthodontic methods to achieve the desired result
What are combination treatments?
Combination treatments uses the benefits of different types of orthodontic treatment methods to meet each patient's individual desires and needs. In combination treatments, braces on the front teeth are avoided, as the ground work is carried out with braces on the back teeth. This approach first transforms a complex case into a simpler one, allowing Aligners to complete the treatment. This method ensures both a functional bite through traditional treatment and discreet, aesthetic orthodontics with Aligners.
Why choose combination treatments?
At TandreguleringKBH, we offer combination treatments tailored by our specialist orthodontists. With expertise in traditional methods like metal and ceramic braces, along with years of experience in Aligner treatments, we can combine these approaches to achieve the best result. Combination treatments are ideal for patients seeking both a beautiful smile and a healthy, functional bite, especially in more complex cases where standard Aligner treatment alone may not be sufficient. This way, we meet both aesthetic and functional needs without compromising on quality.
Why choose combination treatments?
How does it work?
The metal brackets are glued very strategically and precisely onto each tooth. When they are connected with a suitable metal wire, they will eventually line up in a straight line. When the teeth are nicely aligned in both the jaws, small elastics bands are often used to pull the teeth together to consolidate the teeth in both jaws for optimal function and aesthetics.
How does it feel?
Braces may feel rough and sharp on the surface when wearing them initially. Bear in mind that the inner surface of your mouth is only familiar to the smoothness of the surface of your teeth.
It may therefore, take some time – getting use to, before your mucous membranes develop tougher “skin” which can tolerate the different surfaces of your braces. In the first couple of days of wearing braces, your teeth may be soar.
