Orthodontic Treatment Case Examples - AdultsPhiladelphia and Lawrenceville orthodontist patient Mrs. S.Mrs. S. had moderate dental crowding and rotations of the upper and lower teeth. Four first premolars were removed. The total treatment time was less than two years.
Philadelphia and Lawrenceville orthodontist patient GildaImagine the improvement in self-image Mrs. G. now feels. Treatment time was 15 months.
Philadelphia and Lawrenceville orthodontist patient RandyRandy, a center city Philadelphia resident, wanted to close the spacing between his teeth and correct his underbite. Prosthetic cosmetic dentistry (cosmetic dental makeovers) such as veneers, bonding, or porcelain crowns (caps), could have closed the spacing and somewhat correct the bad bite. Unfortunately, the cost of this “quick fix” correction involves the invasive cutting down of perfectly good teeth, many times the expense of orthodontics, and a lifetime of dental maintenance. Orthodontics, which required less than 18 months of treatment time, was a conservative and natural form of cosmetic dentistry that provided Randy with a winning smile. Braces, especially the almost invisible clear porcelain kind, are a socially acceptable way of gently moving the teeth and improving the facial profile.

Phase II treatment lasted 15 months.

Orthognathic Surgery Case ExamplesPhiladelphia and Lawrenceville orthodontist patient BryceBryce, a Lawrenceville resident, was treated with a combination of orthodontics and a mandibular advancement. With adolescents, orthodontics can begin at an early age, but orthognathic (jaw) surgery is usually performed following the completion of facial growth. Bryce had two stages of orthodontics, but there were years of time between stages when he wore no braces. This is the reason for the age difference of the pre- and post-treatment photos. Dr. Lawrence Levin (Chairman, Dept. of Oral Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, CHOP and HUP) performed the mandibular advancement.
Philadelphia and Lawrenceville orthodontist patient ElenaElena had orthodontics and orthognathic surgery. The total treatment time was 24 months.
