The right time for orthodontic treatment is when the second phase of tooth replacement has begun, i.e. when the first lateral permanent teeth erupt, usually at the age of 9-10. In a consultation, the anomaly is then classified according to the guidelines of the “orthodontic indication groups”, or “KIG” for short, and diagnostic documents such as impressions, x-rays and photos are prepared if treatment is required. <\/p><\/div>

After evaluating the diagnostic documents, I then draw up a treatment plan. We will take care of the entire approval process with the health insurance company for you. As soon as we have received written approval from the health insurance company, we will arrange a meeting with you to discuss the treatment plan and the choice of treatment equipment. The treatment can now begin. <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Removable appliances, or rather “loose braces”, are usually used in the first phase of orthodontic treatment. With these “braces”, however, only tilting tooth movements and the subsequent development of the jaws in width and length are possible. This treatment method is sufficient for many patients. However, some patients need “fixed braces” in the 2nd phase. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

“Fixed braces” can do more! They move the teeth physically, purposefully and almost without restriction, meaning that the teeth can be turned straight, gaps can be closed or opened and the teeth can be lengthened or shortened. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

When the first lateral molars erupt – usually at the age of 9 – the statutory health insurance companies cover orthodontic treatment for misaligned teeth and jaws.<\/p>

Treatments are carried out in my practice with removable and fixed braces. With “loose” braces, the jaws are widened to create space and straighten the incisors or to correct a crossbite. <\/p>

Fixed braces are necessary to align rotated teeth and to close or open gaps. The special wire changes the position of the teeth thanks to its elastic restoring force. If all the teeth are on the same level, they can be moved along the wire – like on a splint. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Aesthetic brackets<\/strong><\/p><\/div>

Of course, brackets no longer have to be made of metal. White brackets made of plastic or ceramic also meet the highest aesthetic demands. The passive Damon self-ligating brackets allow fine movement and therefore faster results with a gentler application of force. Damon System brackets work with a unique sliding mechanism that minimizes friction and allows faster and more comfortable alignment of the teeth. The Damon System allows teeth to move more freely and comfortably. <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Regardless of whether you have statutory or private insurance, the first consultation is covered by your health insurance. This means that every patient – young or old – can receive sound orthodontic advice without having to take any financial risk. Only if you would like the diagnostic documentation to be started immediately after the in-depth examination will costs be incurred, which may or may not be covered by your health insurance, depending on your insurance policy. In this case, we work with the ZA-AG<\/b><\/span><\/a> which provides you with transparent and flexible billing. This means you always have an overview of possible costs and financing options. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
