Answers: Your first appointment is a consultation. They will explain the procedure and payment options and maybe x-rays after a down payment is made and a contract is signed.

Bands and brackets are up to the orthodontist. My orthodontist used brackets on molars. My daughter had bands on some molars, but she went to a different orthodontist. I think brackets are more comfortable.

Your baby tooth will have to be extracted by your dentist. Your orthodontist will explain this to you after x-rays are taken. My daughter had baby teeth that wouldn't come out naturally and had to have dental surgery to remove them. Not all baby teeth need surgery.

Yes, the adult teeth will have brackets, but sometimes, baby teeth will not fall out naturally. The baby tooth has to come out so that the adult tooth will come in.

Your orthodontist will explain everything to you. Sometimes other dental appliances are necessary. My daughter had a device that expanded her arch. She also had an appliance that corrected her cross bite.

Don't be worried about anything. Modern dentistry and orthodontics are wonderful. There is an adjustment period after the braces, but you will adjust in no time. Good luck and remember it won't be long and you will have a beautiful smile and beautiful teeth.
Oh, GOODIE, Casey's back!
