Space creation and tooth-position control progress stage by stage.
This is an illustrative scenario for a treatment topic, not the outcome of a specific patient. The same outward appearance can have different causes, so a plan is only confirmed after an examination, imaging and impressions.
Questions worth asking
- What is the diagnosis, and why this approach rather than another?
- How many stages are involved, and how long does each take?
- What maintenance and follow-up are needed afterwards?
- What are the risks and limits of this approach?
This page helps you understand our clinical thinking and ask better questions; the final treatment plan is confirmed after an in-person examination.
