Orthodontic appliances are made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded (glued) to the teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction the teeth are moved to the proper position.
Gone are the days when a metal band with a bracket was placed around each tooth. You can now choose clear or metal brackets for the lower teeth and, in some cases, the color of your appliance. Wires are far less noticeable, and the latest materials are designed to move teeth faster with more comfort. Today, any age is a great age to wear braces!

Treatment time varies and can last between one and three years, depending on several factors including age, treatment method, and how minor or severe your case is. A big factor in a successful treatment is you! The more involved and diligent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be. For children, receiving interceptive or early treatment can also help provide a quicker treatment time
Before beginning your orthodontic care, your doctor will discuss all of your options and provide an estimate for how long your full treatment may take. Please contact our practice to schedule an appointment and learn more about orthodontics and the treatments we provide.

Treatment usually lasts between one and three years, depending on age, treatment method and how minor or severe your case is.

Your doctor estimates your timeline at your initial consultation.
An orthodontist is a dental specialist who completes additional years of training after dental school to diagnose, prevent and treat misaligned teeth and jaws. Orthodontists design treatment using braces, clear aligners and other appliances. Dr. Michael Noorani is the orthodontist at Quarry Orthodontics in Baltimore, Maryland.
Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, and a balanced bite helps you chew and speak comfortably. Crowded or misaligned teeth can trap plaque and wear unevenly. Orthodontic treatment improves oral health and function as well as how your smile looks, which is why we personalize every plan.
