(prHWY.com) January 3, 2013 - Palm Beach County, FL -- Palm Beach County, Florida (December 5, 2012) - Hier Orthodontics, a practice led by Boynton Beach dentist Dr. Lawrence Hier, is highlighting the importance of a comprehensive examination prior to actual orthodontic treatment for braces candidates.
The preliminary screening covers details including the assessment of the problem, what treatment is appropriate, the possibility of tooth extraction, how long the procedure will take, and how much the entire treatment costs.
Usually done at the first appointment, the most important thing in providing orthodontic treatment is the full examination in which the patient's medical and dental history is reviewed and evaluated to determine which possible treatment plan will work best. This also includes the clinical description of the jaw structure and teeth alignment of the patient.
Additionally, before an appointment is made for the candidate, the diagnostic evaluation should be completed and this includes the records for the digital image of the face and teeth, the sample models of the teeth, as well as facial and dental x-rays. Depending on the malocclusion case, tooth extraction may also be necessary.
Following the comprehensive oral exams, Dr. Hier offers a wide range of teeth straightening options for patients to choose from. As well as being a certified Elite Invisalign provider, he offers other solutions including clear ceramic braces and wild smile braces for children that come in various funky designs such as stars, hearts, footballs and flowers.
