Braces 101

The decision to seek treatment for your orthodontic needs is an important one. Your treatment with Cheron Orthodontics should be a positive experience, and making sure our patients understand the entire process is a major part of that. It’s much easier to get on board with treatment when you know exactly what’s happening. Typically, patients are more at ease and comfortable when they’ve had an in-depth explanation of the work being done. This is the reason we’ve created the “Braces 101” section on our website!

With Braces 101, you can learn more about the ins and outs of living with braces and what to expect while you’re in treatment. First, we discuss what you’ll experience the first few days after you get your braces on, and how you can make your treatment easier. There is also a ‘Types of Appliances’ section with explanations and videos of the different parts of braces. Next, we talk about another very important phase of treatment, retainers. In addition to all of this information, we’ve got a section on emergency care. We want our patients to be prepared in the event that something goes wrong! Take a look at Braces 101 today, and we’re confident you’ll feel more comfortable with the whole process.
