We know it’s still October, but with the holiday season around the corner, soon your schedule could become very hectic. If you have dental insurance or a health savings fund and would like to start orthodontic treatment, then see us before these expire. Your Fort Worth, TX, orthodontist can start your care in 2021, and continue straightening your smile throughout 2022.
Your Benefits and Health Savings Funds
If you carry dental insurance, then your 2021 benefits will vanish after December 31st, and likewise, any funds in your health savings account may not roll over into the next year. If you have an uneven smile and have considered treatment, then let us know. We can file for you and answer any questions about your coverage amounts. That way, we can plan your treatment so you know what to expect, and so you can put your hard-earned benefits to work before they go away.
Starting Treatment
Every smile is different, and we offer orthodontic care for kids, teens, and adults. We start with an exam in which we gather detailed digital x-rays and CT images. These allow us to look at not only the position of the teeth, but the roots, jaw, and oral structures too. We can then assess the cause and extent of the misalignment, allowing us to make an accurate diagnosis and recommend the most appropriate treatment option. For kids, this could include phased orthodontics like teeth spacers and retainers, for teens and adults, this could mean braces with tooth-colored brackets or possibly even Invisalign® aligners.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® is a very popular option for teens and adults, as we don’t need to use metal brackets or wires at all. Instead, we create as a series of clear aligners that fit comfortably and shift the teeth, offering straighter smiles in as little as one year for some patients. Not only are they barely noticeable, but you can remove them before meals or before brushing and flossing too, making them far more convenient than other options. If you would like to see if Invisalign® is right for you or a member of your family, and make sure your benefits are used before they expire, then contact our team today. We want to help you end 2021 and start the new year on the path toward a healthier and straighter smile.
