Joint Orthodontics Expose & Bond
Expose & Bond, also known as Joint Orthodontics, is a sophisticated orthodontic procedure designed to address various dental anomalies, including impacted teeth and irregular tooth eruption. This technique involves exposing impacted teeth that have failed to emerge naturally and bonding orthodontic brackets to them for proper alignment within the dental arch.
The Procedure
At The Doctors Method, our team of experienced orthodontists utilise state-of-the-art equipment to perform Expose & Bond procedures with precision and efficiency. The process typically involves the following steps:
- Comprehensive Assessment: Before initiating treatment, our orthodontic specialists conduct a thorough examination, including digital imaging and 3D scans, to assess the position and condition of the impacted teeth.
- Surgical Exposure: In cases where teeth are impacted beneath the gum line or within the jawbone, a minor surgical procedure may be necessary to expose the affected teeth. Our skilled oral surgeons perform these procedures with meticulous care, ensuring minimal discomfort and optimal results for our patients.
- Orthodontic Bonding: Once the impacted teeth are exposed, orthodontic brackets are carefully bonded to the surfaces of the teeth. These brackets serve as anchor points for orthodontic wires, allowing our orthodontists to apply precise forces to guide the impacted teeth into their proper positions over time.
- Customised Treatment Plan: Each Expose & Bond procedure is tailored to the unique needs and goals of the individual patient. Our orthodontic specialists devise customised treatment plans based on factors such as the severity of the impaction, the patient’s age, and their overall dental health.
- Progress Monitoring: Throughout treatment, our team closely monitors the progress of tooth movement and makes necessary adjustments to ensure optimal alignment and occlusion. Regular check-up appointments allow us to track the patient’s response to treatment and make any modifications as needed.
