Why Adjustment Appointments Are Important When You Have Braces

Braces are used to correct imperfections in a person’s smile. Both women and men get braces, as well as the young and the old.

At Speaks Orthodontics, We Care

We are Speaks Orthodontics, and we know the importance of having a great smile. It can give you the confidence to do better in your personal and professional life. You can be assured that we want you to look great, and you will want to make sure that you come in for adjustment appointments.

Adjustment Appointments

The adjustment appointments are necessary. Here is why you need to come in for them:

  • Tightening – The tightening of the braces helps straighten the teeth. These are necessary.
  • Problems – You will also be looked at for other problems in your mouth. These can be cavities or gum problems.
  • Brushing – The professional that is working on your teeth will look to see if you are brushing and flossing correctly. If not, they will instruct you on how to do so.

Once your braces have straightened your teeth, they will be removed. You will want to follow the aftercare that the orthodontist will provide for you. This will help you to make sure that your teeth stay in the best shape as possible. Listen to what they tell you so that you can go out into the world with the confidence that you need every day. It will be for your benefit to listen to the orthodontist because they have the knowledge and expertise in dealing with braces and when they are taken off.

I recently completed my Spark aligner treatment with Speaks Orthodontics, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I started with a severe open bite, and Dr. Speaks and his team were able to significantly improve both my bite and my smile. My original treatment timeline was 18–24 months, and I was able to finish in about 22 months, right within the expected timeframe. Throughout the entire process, Dr. Speaks and his team were incredibly helpful, responsive, and attentive to any questions or concerns I had. I also experienced very little pain or discomfort during treatment, which made the experience that much better. The celebration and gift at the end of treatment were a fun, thoughtful personal touch and a great way to wrap up the experience! If you’re looking for an orthodontist who provides high-quality care, delivers great results, and makes you feel supported throughout the process, I highly recommend Dr. Speaks and his team. They exceeded my expectations, and I’m so glad I chose them for my treatment! Thank you for everything!

I’ve experienced 4 different orthodontists for my kids and Speaks is undeniably the best. Such thorough, smart and detailed care for my son. Can’t recommend him enough!

We come to speaks orthodontics for both of our kids more often than we would like. However, if you have to come someplace this often, this is a great place to visit. The staff is very friendly, they are accommodating with schedule changes and last minute issues. Dr Speaks is very charismatic and friendly!
