Orthodontics at Maison Dental

Improving Your Life With Orthodontics

Smile Confidently

Orthodontics is the science of straightening teeth, improving bite, and all things related to teeth and mouth structure. It can improve the looks of your smile but, more importantly, orthodontics improves the function of your mouth.

Comfort

Improving how your teeth and mouth work together increases how well it helps with basic things like chewing. That improves nutrition and quality of life which lasts over a lifetime. In some cases, improving nutrition through better teeth function can lower the risk of disease and increase longevity as nutrition is related to overall health.

No Wires or Bands

Being able to eat all your favorite foods because of improved mouth function will add to enjoyment throughout your life.

Better mouth function can also improve speech. That, in turn, can improve confidence and open up opportunities. Improving your smile's looks also serves as a confidence boost and can help launch a new season of life.

Find Your Best Way to Straighten Teeth

Maison Dental has multiple choices in orthodontics from traditional braces to clear aligners with options within each.

Traditional braces are effective and affordable with orthopedic visits scheduled every 4 weeks. The typical treatment period averages around 18 months.

Clear or ceramic aligners and lingual braces offer effectiveness but without the high visibility of traditional braces. Treatment periods average 18 months but can be longer. Visits are between 4 and 6 weeks apart.

Clear aligners like Invisalign are hardly detectable and are effective with many misalignment issues. Visits can be 6 to 8 weeks apart and treatment times can be as short as 6 months or up to 2 years.

Booking Your Child's First Orthodontic Visit

A proactive approach is to schedule your child’s first orthodontic visit when permanent teeth start coming in around 7 years old. This exam will tell if teeth are growing properly. Visits between then and 9 years old indicate early on whether orthodontics will be needed. That gives you time to plan financially and get your child prepared for the idea of braces.

Adults Are Getting Orthodontics

More adults are seeking orthodontic services. The reasons are they never got their teeth straightened as a child, they want a better smile to enhance their careers, and they are re-entering dating and want to look their best. Another reason is to correct a bite that is making it more challenging to chew or speak as they age. Maison Dental can help whatever your reason. There are many orthodontic choices for you and your budget.

How Expensive Is Orthodontics?

Call Us At (647) 689-8889

Orthodontics in Canada typically starts at $2,000 but can go as high as $10,000. It depends on each case and whether other dental services are required before getting orthodontics, the length of treatment, and the method used. Younger children between 9 and 11 years old are typically less expensive because their teeth are easier to move to a correct position so the sooner you get started, the more likely it is for the cost to be lower.

The best way to get an exact cost is to set an appointment with a Maison Dental orthodontist. An exam and X-ray can give you a definitive treatment plan. Our staff can discuss various payment options for you too.

Life Changes With Orthodontics

Perfecting your smile means changing some things over your treatment time. Braces prevent you from eating certain things like popcorn or caramel. Clear aligners require discipline to wear them.
However, the smile you get once you complete your orthodontic treatment can give you positive changes that last. Being able to eat better, speak better, and smile with confidence can make a world of difference.
