    Wondering if orthodontics is right for you? Consider these signs:
  • Overbite – Upper teeth protrude too far forward.
  • Spacing – Gaps or spaces between teeth.
  • Underbite – Lower teeth jut out in front.
  • Crowding – Teeth overlap, making flossing difficult.
  • Crossbite – A misaligned bite causing discomfort.
  • Pain – Chronic headaches, jaw, upper back, or neck pain.

Orthodontic Treatment Options

Numerous treatment options are accessible to cater to your specific needs and budget. Here are some potential choices:

Traditional Braces

When the term “braces” comes to mind, you may envision the older bulky metal brackets with wires. However, modern dental brackets have evolved into smaller, less conspicuous versions that maintain the same effectiveness. Not only are they easier to clean, but they also offer a much more comfortable experience.

Clear Brackets

For those seeking conventional brackets, we provide the option of clear brackets, which are particularly popular among our adult patients. These discreet brackets seamlessly blend conventional orthodontics with subtlety. On just a quick glance, no one will even notice you’re wearing braces.

Clear Aligners

The popularity of clear aligners, like Invisalign, has soared in recent times. These custom-made, transparent trays gently guide your teeth towards their perfect alignment. With a snug and precise fit, you can occasionally remove them for eating, brushing, and flossing as usual, or for special events such as important meetings or special dates.

The Cost Of Orthodontic Treatment In Ottawa

Orthodontic treatment costs typically range from $3000 to $5000+ out-of-pocket with a standard insurance plan. To provide you with an accurate quote based on your insurance coverage and actual expenses, we conduct an oral exam. Without insurance, the average cost is usually around $4000 to $6000+.

    Several factors influence the cost of orthodontics:
  • The current condition of your oral health, including teeth and gums.
  • The extent of teeth movement required.
  • The type of orthodontic treatment you select.
  • The duration of your treatment.

Since every smile is unique, the best way to determine the most suitable treatment and associated cost is through a consultation. Share your smile goals with us, let us assess your teeth, and we’ll design a personalized treatment plan to meet your desires and needs.

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

During your orthodontics consultation, we will conduct a comprehensive examination, evaluating not only your teeth and gums but also the condition of your bite and soft tissues. Our goal is to understand the overall appearance and functionality of your entire mouth. By thoroughly assessing the health and aesthetics of your smile and understanding your desired outcomes, we can design a tailored treatment plan to help you achieve your goals successfully. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

To maintain your braces in good condition, steer clear of foods that could potentially damage them, such as candy apples, caramel, and corn on the cob. Additionally, avoid foods that are challenging to clean out of braces, including gum, caramel, and popcorn. It’s also advisable to limit sugary or acidic foods, as they can be more challenging to clean off your teeth. For those with clear braces, foods like beets, curry, and Kraft Dinner may cause staining, so consider minimizing their consumption to preserve the clarity of your braces.

Contact us immediately! No need to wait until your next appointment.

Discover the convenience of floss threaders and super floss, specially crafted for flossing around braces or permanent retainers. During your next appointment, we’ll gladly demonstrate the proper technique for flossing with braces, ensuring optimal oral care.

Orthodontic treatment duration can vary based on individual needs. For minor adjustments, it could be as short as 6 months. However, for most patients, braces may be worn for a period of 6 months to 2 years. To provide a precise estimate, we recommend an oral exam, after which we can determine the ideal treatment duration tailored to your specific requirements.

Ideally, orthodontic treatment is most effective when initiated in younger patients, before the majority of adult teeth have erupted. If you’re a parent, we encourage you to bring your teen for a consultation. However, rest assured, we also offer orthodontic treatment options for adults! It’s never too late to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

Initially, braces application is generally painless. However, as they start to move your teeth, you may experience some discomfort, which is often described as more bothersome than painful. If you encounter any pain or discomfort, please inform us! We have solutions to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as can be. Your well-being is our priority, and we’re here to support you throughout the process.

You won't find a better dental staff than Innes Dental group. I have been going for more than 20 years and Dr. Ball is the most gentle dentist I have come across. Today, Kelly was my hygienist. She was just as gentle and friendly. Thanks for many years of great service!

I was Dr Ball’s patient from January 2001 until this year — I moved to Montreal in mid-March. Unfortunately I have had to seek a new Dental clinic in this location and it has made me truly realize how fortunate I (and my family) had been with Dr Ball all these years. Dr Ball and his hygienists, assistants and Catherine were wonderful and ensured that the experience with this dental clinic was always superb. Thank You for the great service! Mary Catherine Hung
