About

Comprehensive orthodontic treatment includes metal wires that are inserted into orthodontic brackets, which can be made from stainless steel or a more aesthetic ceramic material.

Dr. Oliver Favalli, DMD's Expert Contributions
  • How should I clean my Invisalign?

    You can get Invisalign Cleaning Crystals (Amazon or from your orthodontist) or some patients use regular denture cleaning crystals to get their retainers clean throughout the wear. READ MORE

  • numbness in lip

    The numbness will go away but I would still have your orthodontist / dentist evaluate your "weird lump thing." It could be a temporary inflammatory response or maybe blocked salivary duct? Just get a proper evaluation. READ MORE

  • Can you get braces on just your front teeth?

    Sir, Of course you can - it all depends on your personal aims and objectives. I am assuming you mean ALL the upper teeth. If you are happy with your upper teeth only being fixed, we are happy as well! If you mean only 2-4 teeth, it becomes more difficult because you have less teeth to pull/push against as you straighten the others. Thank you, Dr. Favalli READ MORE

  • Do you need braces to fix a few teeth?

    Good evening If you want to move a couple of teeth around you can either do it with 1. traditional braces or 2. some type of aligner therapy such as Invisalign or 3. IF it is a small movement then all you need is a retainer with springs. I hope I answered your question! Oliver Favalli, DMD READ MORE

  • How long is Invisalign treatment?

    Hello, Closing a gap between your front teeth doesn't take too long at all. It all depends on the size of the gap (bigger=longer), the age of the patient(younger=quicker), the amount of bone around those teeth (less=longer), and if you are taking any medications at all, that could affect the movement of teeth. Dr. Favalli READ MORE

  • My daughter’s middle tooth seems to be out of line from the remaining teeth. Can this be corrected with braces?

    Yes, I would see an orthodontist to have it fully evaluated. Is it a primary tooth? Is it a permanent tooth? Does she have all of the remaining teeth? Thank you! READ MORE

  • What are zirconia braces?

    Hello! Zirconia braces are white braces - they are more cosmetic but they are more expensive and usually a little bit harder to remove OFF the teeth when it is time to debond. Hope this helps! Thank you! READ MORE

  • Can I get braces for my upper teeth only?

    Sure you can - the patient drives the treatment not the doctor. thank you! READ MORE

  • I am due for an extraction tomorrow and I am worried. Please help.

    Good morning. Before proceeding I would review the treatment plan with whoever is providing the orthodontic care (i.e. the dentist or orthodontist) to make sure all your questions have been answered. Thank you! READ MORE
