Braces and clear aligners are orthodontic devices designed to straighten teeth and correct bite issues. Orthodontic treatment options, such as traditional braces and clear aligners like Invisalign, offer distinct approaches to achieving a straighter smile. Traditional braces consist of brackets, wires, and bands that are periodically adjusted by an orthodontist to gradually reposition the teeth over a period of one to three years. In contrast, clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays crafted using 3D imaging technology, offering a discreet and flexible solution. Patients progress through a series of trays, experiencing gradual tooth shifts, with the ability to remove the aligners for daily activities. Both methods apply controlled forces to the teeth, stimulating bone remodeling for alignment and bite correction, ultimately enhancing overall oral health. Choosing between the two often depends on individual preferences, treatment needs, and the orthodontist's recommendation, emphasizing the importance of consulting with a professional to determine the most suitable approach based on specific factors such as misalignment severity, oral health, and lifestyle.
Our highly knowledgeable team is well-versed in a variety of materials on the market, allowing us to tailor the cost of your dentures based on the chosen fabrication material. During your consultation, our team will provide a detailed explanation of the materials available, highlighting their differences and suggesting the most suitable options based on your specific case. We recommend booking a consultation with our team to explore the extensive range of choices and find an affordable denture solution that meets your needs.
The Questions Most Frequently Asked By Our Patients After Extractions
A certain amount of pain following the removal of teeth is not uncommon. If no prescription for pain medicine is given, you may use over the counter pain medicine such as Tylenol®. Do not use aspirin products.
A small amount of bleeding is to be expected following tooth extractions. Oozing may continue twenty-four to forty-eight hours. If a lot of bleeding occurs, remove any large liver-like clots, then place a piece of folded gauze over the bleeding area and bite down firmly for twenty minutes. The gauze pack must be thick enough so you can press when biting down. Repeat this procedure if necessary. Biting pressure on a wet tea bag may be effective in stopping bleeding. If bleeding happens, avoid hot liquids, stop mouth rinse, sit upright and stop exercise.
Following extractions, swelling and sometimes bruising can be expected. Normally, swelling will reach its peak on the third day after surgery, then go away. To help swelling go down, ice packs should be put on your face where the swelling is twenty to thirty minutes each hour for the first twenty-four hours, then five to ten minutes each hour for the next day if swelling is extreme. After two days, stop the ice.
Vigorous mouth washing may cause bleeding if clots are not formed. Therefore do not rinse your mouth for at least 24 hours following extractions. You may then gently rinse mouth with warm saltwater solution (1/2 teaspoon of salt to a glass of warm water) four or five times a day for several days. If bleeding continues, stop all mouth rinsing and bite on folded gauze. The third day following surgery you may use a mouthwash such as Cepocol®, Lavoris®, or Chloraseptic® in addition to the salt water. This will leave a more pleasant taste in your mouth and also act as an antiseptic.
Your diet should be light, smooth foods (soups, custards, junior baby foods, egg nogs and Jell-O, etc.) until healing has gotten to the point where more coarse foods can be chewed. Dietary supplements such as Nutrament®, Sustacal® or Boost® may be helpful to maintain daily dietary requirements. Drink six to eight glasses of water daily. Maintain normal bowel movements. A mild laxative is recommended if necessary.
- Temperature – Following extensive oral surgery, it is not uncommon to have a temperature. Rest and plenty of liquids will help you return to normal temperature.
- Stitches – Following the removal of your teeth, an alveoplasty (surgical bone trimming) will be performed to prepare your mouth for dentures. Stitches have been used to reposition the tissues and speed healing. After a few days, the stitches may cause a “drawing” to tight feeling. This is normal and will be relieved when the stitches are removed. Return for the removal of stitches at the time your doctor told you.
