Differences Between Your Orthodontist and Dentist Near Hamilton Ontario

For general care, you can visit your Dentist near Hamilton Ontario for treatments like fillings, teeth cleaning, veneers, and more. For more advanced cases where an orthodontic appliance or orthognathic surgery is necessary, your dentist near Hamilton Ontario will refer you to an orthodontist, such as Emerald Orthodontics, based a short drive away in Grimsby.

Your dentist near Hamilton Ontario is available for primary screenings and checkups. You can visit your dentist near Hamilton Ontario to provide treatment for cavities, broken teeth, cracked teeth, and other structural issues. Depending on their experience, your dentist nearby Hamilton Ontario may also provide advanced treatments like dental implant surgery.

The primary responsibility of your orthodontist is to examine and assess abnormalities of the jaws and teeth, perform corrective procedures including jaw surgery, and manage your orthodontic treatment through to its conclusion.

Should You Visit a Dentist near Hamilton Mountain for Invisalign®?

Your orthodontist and dentist nearby Hamilton Mountain can prescribe treatment with an Invisalign® aligner. Many dentists are certified to provide Invisalign®, but there are a few reasons why you should visit a specialist rather than your family dentist in Hamilton Mountain.

• An orthodontist can diagnose and treat advanced abnormalities of the teeth and jaws that a dentist in Hamilton Mountain can’t.
• Your orthodontist treating patients from Hamilton can perform advanced jaw surgery for severe abnormalities.
• Your dentist in Hamilton Mountain doesn’t have the same experience or education for jaw and tooth issues relating to alignment and your bite.
• There may be a better solution available. For severe crowding and spacing problems of the teeth, Invisalign® won’t provide sufficient correction.

Invisalign® is designed for minor and some forms of moderate abnormality with tooth spacing and position. Treatment with orthodontics, including braces, could be better suited to your needs. A specialist opinion can have a significant impact on the success of your treatment.
