For Patients

Complex Orthodontic Cases

When a case has been called difficult, or a previous plan did not reach its goal.

Complex cases are not simply longer cases. They usually involve several problems interacting — jaw relationships, missing or impacted teeth, previous treatment, or the way the bite functions.

The first step is always understanding the whole picture before discussing any appliance.

Next step

Start with an assessment, not a treatment name.

Send your main concern and records so the first visit can begin with diagnosis and a clear explanation of the options.
