Fixed Vs. Removable Appliances
At Laidlaw Orthodontics, we believe patients should be in the know when it comes to their braces.
It’s important for Hillsboro patients to understand the difference between fixed and removable appliances. Fixed appliances, like braces, stay attached to your teeth and don’t come off until you complete your treatment.
Removable appliances, like Invisalign’s clear aligner system, are worn about 20-22 hours a day but can be taken off easily.
Besides the obvious differences, Dr. Laidlaw uses Invisalign aligners to treat mild to moderate orthodontic problems.
At Laidlaw Orthodontics, we generally use fixed appliances for comprehensive and serious and treatment.
