Frequently Asked Questions

Orthodontic treatment length depends on each patient’s case, but most people at Griffin Orthodontics complete treatment in about 12 to 24 months. Minor adjustments or early-phase treatments can take less than a year, while more complex cases (for example, significant bite corrections) might take up to about 2 years. Whether you choose LightForce braces or Spark Clear Aligners, our West Allis orthodontist will give you an estimated timeframe after evaluating your smile. With modern techniques and regular check-ups, we make sure your treatment stays on schedule as much as possible. Remember, following your orthodontist’s instructions (like wearing aligners as directed or keeping appointments) also helps finish your treatment on time.

KL Owen Braces are a type of advanced self-ligating braces. Unlike traditional braces that use small elastic bands to hold the wire, KL Owen Braces feature a built-in, low-friction clip mechanism. This design can lead to:

  • Fewer appointments
  • Potentially shorter treatment times
  • Improved comfort
  • Easier cleaning due to no elastic ties. They represent a significant step forward in orthodontic technology.

Yes! This is often referred to as Phase 1 treatment. We sometimes place braces on just a few permanent teeth while baby teeth are still present to correct a specific issue, like a crossbite or severe crowding, that could cause bigger problems later. Once those baby teeth fall out, we typically take a “rest” period before starting Phase 2 when all permanent teeth are in.

Early orthodontic treatment, often referred to as Phase One, can address significant issues such as severe crowding or jaw misalignment. By intervening early, orthodontists can guide the growth of the jaw and create a better environment for permanent teeth to emerge, potentially reducing the need for more extensive treatments later. Additionally, early treatment can improve self-esteem and oral function

LightForce Brackets are the world’s first fully customized 3D-printed ceramic braces. Unlike traditional braces that come in standard shapes, LightForce braces are digitally designed to fit the unique contours of your teeth. This means a more precise fit, which can make treatment more efficient and comfortable. They are also less noticeable than standard metal braces because they’re made of tooth-colored ceramic. At Griffin Orthodontics, our orthodontist uses LightForce technology to give you the benefits of traditional braces (reliably straightening all types of cases) with a modern, personalized touch that improves comfort and results.
