Dr. K. C. Keller practices Orthodontics in Brooklyn, NY. 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. The wires interact with the brackets to move teeth into desired positions. Being advanced in the field, Dr. Keller may also use Invisalign or other aligner trays that have been designed to align a patients? smile. As an orthodontist, Dr. Keller must recognize various characteristics of a malocclusion or dentofacial deformity, define the nature of the problem, including the etiology if possible, and design a treatment strategy based on the specific needs and desires of the patient.

Dr. Keith Cyrus Keller's Expert Contributions
Can I have braces for 6 months?
Teeth move about 1 mm per month. Every person's mouth is different. Some people can be finished in 6 months, but the average time for braces is 18 months. Regards, Dr. Keith Cyrus Keller, D.M.D READ MORE
Do retainers need to be worn all night?
If you want to keep your teeth from moving away from your finished orthodontic treatment positions, you must incorporate some form of "retention." Every orthodontist has their own protocol for retention and each patient doesn't get the same type of retainer. We use fixed retainers, removable retainers, and sometimes both. Each situation is different, but the point is that teeth usually need life-long "retention." Regards, Dr. Keith Cyrus Keller, D.M.D READ MORE
