Patient Background:
Patient D, a 27-year-old individual residing in Augusta, expressed a desire to address severe misalignment issues and an open bite that had persisted since adolescence. These dental concerns were not only affecting Patient D’s confidence but also causing discomfort and difficulty with biting and chewing.
Treatment Plan:
Recognizing the complexity of Patient D’s dental issues, our orthodontic specialists at Carter Orthodontics developed a comprehensive treatment plan to achieve optimal results. Lingual braces, which are attached to the back of the teeth for maximum discretion, were chosen as the preferred orthodontic appliance to discreetly correct the misalignment and open bite.
Braces Treatment:
Patient D underwent the placement of lingual braces, customized to fit the unique contours of the teeth and provide effective correction of misalignment and bite issues. Despite being virtually invisible to others, lingual braces exerted gentle pressure on the teeth, gradually guiding them into proper alignment and closing the open bite.
Outcome:
After 30 months of meticulous treatment, Patient D experienced a remarkable transformation. The lingual braces successfully corrected the severe misalignment and open bite, restoring harmony to the smile and improving oral function. Patient D emerged from treatment with newfound confidence, empowered by their beautifully aligned smile and enhanced facial aesthetics.
