Specialized Orthodontic Services Tailored to Each Patient

Everyone’s dental and oral structure is unique. That’s why we customize every orthodontic treatment based on these individual features. Our orthodontic services are offered in three main types, and the best option should be chosen based on age, dental condition, and patient preference:

 

Fixed Orthodontics: Precise Treatment for Misaligned Teeth

In fixed orthodontics, the specialist attaches braces to the surface of the teeth to gradually correct their position over time. This method is ideal for patients with complex dental and jaw issues.

Types of fixed orthodontics include ceramic braces, lingual braces (placed behind the teeth), and traditional metal brackets. Clear aligners—commonly known as invisible braces—are also an option for those who are concerned about aesthetics and prefer not to have visible wires.

 

 

Removable Orthodontics: A Flexible Approach to Oral and Dental Correction

Removable orthodontics is a method where the patient can easily take out the orthodontic appliance at certain times, such as during meals or while brushing teeth. This method is commonly used for children’s orthodontics, helping to guide jaw growth or correct abnormalities identified at an early stage. The main advantage of removable orthodontics is its ease of maintenance and hygiene.

 

Invisible Orthodontics: Treatment Without Changing Your Appearance

If you're someone who feels uncomfortable with the visible metal wires of traditional upper and lower jaw braces, invisible orthodontics using clear aligners (Invisalign) is designed for you. This method does not involve wires or brackets. Instead, it uses a series of transparent, removable, and replaceable aligners to gradually guide the teeth into their proper positions.

Overall, it’s best to let an experienced orthodontist recommend the most suitable treatment method for you. For example, one of the common reasons patients seek treatment is for correcting “bunny teeth,” which is usually caused by protruding upper front teeth.

The type of orthodontic treatment should match the structure of the patient’s jaw. In some cases, the abnormality may vary in type and severity, and a different treatment plan may be required accordingly.

Choosing the Best Type of Orthodontics for Your Teeth

 Selecting the right orthodontic treatment requires a thorough examination of the mouth, jaw, and teeth—something only an orthodontist can determine. The key factors influencing this decision include:
 •            The severity of tooth misalignment or crowding
 •            The presence or absence of jaw abnormalities
 •            The patient’s age and stage of dental development
 •            The aesthetic expectations of both the patient and the orthodontist

During the consultation session, the orthodontic specialist in Tehran will assess your condition and, using radiographic imaging, recommend the most suitable type of orthodontic treatment for you.

 

 

Orthodontic Costs: Is Orthodontic Treatment Expensive?

 One of the most frequently asked questions by patients is: How much does orthodontic treatment cost?

 The truth is, there’s no fixed answer to this question. The cost of orthodontics depends on several factors, each of which can influence the course of treatment and the final price. Below, we’ve outlined some of the most important factors affecting the overall cost.

 

Type of Orthodontic Appliance

 Will you be using metal brackets or have you opted for clear aligners? The material type directly impacts the cost of orthodontics. For example, the price of invisible orthodontics is not the same as fixed orthodontics with metal brackets.

 

Severity of Jaw and Dental Issues

 The more complex the problem, the longer the treatment period, which may require additional sessions or specific adjustments. This greatly affects the cost of orthodontics. For instance, the cost of full upper jaw orthodontics is different from the price of treating just the four front teeth.

 

Doctor’s Expertise

 Specialized clinics equipped with high-quality imaging systems, digital oral scanning, and experienced teams offer higher standards of care, which naturally affects the final orthodontic cost.

 

Patient’s Age

 Generally, orthodontic treatment for children at a younger age is easier and faster. In contrast, adults may require combination treatments, jaw surgery, or the use of auxiliary tools, and the treatment duration is usually longer.

 

 

Before Getting Braces: Take These Points Seriously

 Before starting your orthodontic journey, it’s essential to become aware of the key aspects of this treatment method with the guidance of a skilled and experienced orthodontist. This knowledge will help you move through the process more smoothly and prevent potential issues. Understanding the following points before beginning treatment is crucial:

• Examine the Condition of Gums and Teeth
  Orthodontic treatment is performed only on healthy teeth. If any dental issues arise after the braces are applied, the orthodontic appliances must be completely removed and reinstalled. To avoid repeat procedures and extra costs, address any cavities or gum disease first.
• Radiographic Imaging
  To design an accurate treatment plan, complete and precise images of the jaws and teeth are required. At our clinic, we use digital imaging to analyze and evaluate tooth positioning effectively.
• A Clear Understanding of Treatment Commitments
  If you’ve chosen orthodontics to treat your dental and jaw issues, you must commit to regular visits and actively cooperate with your orthodontist. Following proper orthodontic care is essential for achieving the best results.

 

 

Common Misconceptions About Orthodontics

 You may hear things from people who lack accurate information or have had unprofessional orthodontic experiences with unqualified doctors—things that might discourage you from seeking treatment. Here, we address two major misconceptions about orthodontics:

• Orthodontics Is Only for Aesthetics

 Orthodontic treatment not only improves the appearance and alignment of teeth, but also corrects bite and jaw positioning, helping to reduce issues such as headaches, jaw pain, or enamel wear.

In some cases, changes in lip shape after orthodontics occur due to the correction of protruding or receding teeth and jaws. This not only enhances facial aesthetics but can also improve speech articulation.

• Orthodontics Damages the Teeth

 If you neglect oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment and don’t use an orthodontic toothbrush, cavities may occur. However, this is not caused by the braces themselves, but rather by improper brushing and flossing techniques.

 

Post-Orthodontic Care: How to Maintain Your Results

 After the braces are removed and the treatment period is complete, a significant part of the treatment’s long-term success depends on how well the patient follows post-treatment care. The following key recommendation will help you preserve your results:

 

 

Consistent Use of the Orthodontic Retainer

 Not wearing your retainer can cause your teeth to gradually shift back to their original position. Depending on the type of retainer, you’ll need to wear it for a certain number of hours each day, as instructed by your orthodontist. In some cases, a fixed retainer—a wire placed behind the teeth—is used and typically remains in place for one to two years.

 

Oral Hygiene Maintenance

 Proper and regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups are essential to preserve the results of orthodontic treatment and prevent tooth decay.

 

Proper Nutrition

 In the first few weeks after treatment, it’s best to avoid hard or sticky foods to prevent putting pressure on the teeth.
