Orthodontic Diagnosis
Understanding Your Unique Needs
At Longmont Braces, we believe that every smile is unique, and the path to achieving a beautiful, healthy smile begins with a comprehensive orthodontic diagnosis. Our team of experienced orthodontists takes the time to thoroughly evaluate each patient’s dental and facial structures, ensuring a personalized orthodontic treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.
The Diagnostic Process
During your initial consultation, our orthodontists will conduct a detailed examination, which may include:
- Visual examination: We’ll carefully inspect your teeth, jaws, and facial structures to identify any misalignments, crowding, or other issues.
- Dental impressions or 3D scans: These allow us to create precise models of your teeth and bite, enabling a more in-depth analysis.
- X-rays: Advanced imaging techniques, such as panoramic or cephalometric X-rays, provide valuable insights into the positioning of your teeth, jaws, and facial bones.
- Photographs: High-quality photographs from various angles help us document your current dental and facial aesthetics.
Comprehensive Assessment
Through this thorough diagnostic process, our orthodontists can accurately assess the following:
- Bite alignment: Evaluating how the upper and lower teeth fit together when the jaws are closed.
- Tooth spacing and crowding: Identifying any areas where teeth are too close together or overlapping.
- Jaw growth and development: Monitoring the proper growth and alignment of the jaws, particularly in younger patients.
- Facial symmetry: Assessing any asymmetries or imbalances in the facial structure that may affect the bite or aesthetics.
