    Can an Orthodontist Treat Tooth Decay?

    Un Orthodontiste peut traiter une Carie ?

    I understand your concern: you have a scheduled appointment at our orthodontic clinic, and you’ve just discovered that you have tooth decay.
    This is a situation we encounter frequently, and I’m going to explain exactly how we will take care of your oral health.

    The Orthodontist Does Not Treat Tooth Decay

    As a specialist orthodontist, I believe in being transparent with you: we do not directly treat tooth decay.
    Our expertise focuses on aligning teeth and correcting bite issues.
    But don’t worry – we have an effective and proven solution to guide you through the process.

    A Personalized Dental Treatment Plan

    As soon as tooth decay is detected during a clinical examination, we implement a coordinated treatment plan.
    Our network of practitioners ensures fast and effective care.
    Once the dental treatments are completed, we resume your orthodontic treatment from where we left off, adjusting your appliance if necessary.

    Preventing Dental Problems – Your Best Ally in Orthodontics

    Good oral hygiene is essential during your orthodontic treatment.
    Our team guides you through specific brushing techniques and advises you on the best tools to maintain optimal oral health.
    Cavity prevention starts with these daily habits that we teach you from your very first appointment.
