4. Orthodontics (Braces & Aligners)

The ideal age for braces is usually between 10 to 14 years, when permanent teeth have developed. However, adults can also benefit from orthodontic treatments at any age.

Aligners are more comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible, making them a popular choice. However, the best option depends on your dental condition and the dentist's recommendation.

5. Root Canal Treatment

Most root canal treatments are completed in 1 to 3 sittings, depending on the severity of the infection and the condition of the tooth.

A root canal is needed to treat infection inside the tooth, remove damaged tissue, and save the natural tooth from extraction.
