HOW DO BRACES & INVISALIGN ACTUALLY WORK?

Braces and Invisalign are a brilliant and safe way to get beautiful straight teeth. This video shows and explains clearly how Invisalign (which you can continue with at home), and braces work to move your teeth into their correct positions, resulting in straight teeth. We discuss the mechanics and biology and explain the reason why sometimes braces can be painful. We also explain the reason for retainers being necessary at the end of treatment.

Straight teeth can give you more confidence and encourage you to smile more. So many types of teeth straightening systems can be done at home by you! (with a little help from your dentist/orthodontist)

Thanks for sharing this video Dr.Sarah. This is helpful. I just had my braces 6 weeks ago. I enjoy watching your video and its quite informative. By the way, you look like a tooth fairy here, cute :)

Thanks for the video! Very interesting even when I’ve had my braces for 2 years already it’s interesting, I only have 6 more appointments to attend and they’ll take them off!

[choufleur]

fascinating! i'm starting invisalign soon and i always thought moving the teeth would cause harm to roots...

[MomyT]

I love your necklace! Just got power chains on top & bottom..close to the finish line!!

How much does it cost to use that brace to straighten my teeth

[vkng_dragn]

I have metal braces in my life 3 times. Then I wasn't on top of the retainer habit on a constant basis but my teeth look pretty good and straight. I have asymmetric face and my jaw is crooked. The Ortho did the best he could without surgery. But I feel that over the years my bone structure is changing and on the gum area on one side of the top jaw is more visible and wider. I'll love to fix that and fix my jaw once and for all. I have massive headaches and sometimes I feel the top teeth and molars moving or getting loose.

Thanks Dr. Sarah.This is an very informative video..
Actually I got my braces 6 weeks ago & my orthodontist remove my 4 tooth on last week. But the day when I have to get my wire fix my orthodontists hand got fractured.. So he can't treat upto 2 weeks.. If I don't fix my wire will it affect??

Question ⁉️ is it possible for your teeth to fall out from the "remodeling 🤔

[NNM]

I only have one bracket on the lower and one on the upper I have to put an elastic on that goes from the bracket down inside up to the one on the top outside the pressure is so hard it gives me ear pain (it’s the last molar ) what can I do help I’ve had braces before but the pain was everywhere now it’s only on one spot and I never experienced ear pain from them before

[rathipriya]

Mam actually after getting braces on it looks like my right side face is moved inward and my left side is wider as it was before I got my braces, , so my question is that does braces starts to move teeth from oneside?

[rue]

This is the most interesting and thorough explanation on teeth straightening I have come across.

[emmat]
