There are six steps of orthodontics:



Step 1: take X-ray films.
The X-ray films will show the shapes of teeth and bones of head so that the dentist can make a suitable orthodontic plan for the customers.

Step 2: make a model of teeth.
Put the rubber between the teeth and bite 1 to 2 minutes, and then the model will be finished.

Step 3: take photos of teeth.
Take the photos of your teeth from different angles before the orthodontic treatment.

Step 4: wear braces.
You may feel a bit uncomfortable at the beginning of wearing braces but you will be used to it after a period.

Step 5: adjust the braces.
Use the rubber band to tighten the teeth in order to have neat teeth.

Step 6: take off braces and wear the retainer.
When the teeth are set, take off braces and wear the retainer.
