Nanda Orthodontics

Braces

Yes! We do braces! We treat patients in Edmond and OKC with many options offered to help straighten the teeth of Oklahomans including clear braces, metal braces, Damon, lingual braces, and more! The benefits of adult orthodontic treatment often go beyond the obvious physical changes of an improved bite and straighter teeth; it’s also a great way to improve a person’s overall self-image.

Why Braces?

Braces can do more than just give you a beautiful smile. By straightening your teeth and aligning your jaw, braces can help you avoid potential oral health problems like tooth decay and gum disease. Left untreated, crooked teeth can be difficult to clean and may even lead to tooth loss. Additionally, misaligned teeth and jaws can cause issues with chewing, speech, and tooth wear.

At Nanda Orthodontics, we offer traditional braces as a reliable option for straightening teeth and improving overall oral health.

Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation with Dr. Nanda, our expert orthodontist in Edmond, and discover your options for achieving a straight, healthy smile.

Damon

The actual procedure of braces placement is absolutely painless! We promise! While some patients experience little to no discomfort other can feel some discomfort or soreness

The Damon System, a self-ligation technique that moves teeth faster and more comfortably than traditional braces. The system’s lighter wires and lower friction brackets result in shorter treatment times, while its slide mechanism and solid walls control tooth movement with speed and efficiency. Plus, the Damon System makes it easier to maintain good hygiene because it’s easier to keep clean. And don’t worry about the placement process – it’s painless for most patients, with little to no discomfort.

Orthodontics Combined with Corrective Jaw Surgery

People who can benefit from orthognathic surgery include those with jaws that are positioned incorrectly. Orthognathic surgery is also the treatment of choice in patients who have not had the benefit of dentofacial orthopedics for growth guidance or in cases where the deformity is so severe that orthodontics alone is not enough to correct it. Orthognathic surgery can eliminate severe aesthetic and functional deformities and be a life-changing event for a patient.

How long will I need to wear braces?

The length of time you’ll need to wear braces depends on several factors, including the severity of your orthodontic issues, the type of braces you choose, and your compliance with wearing them as directed. In general, most people wear braces for 1-3 years.
