What is Ortho FX?
Ortho FX, an orthodontic treatment, uses clear plastic molds called aligners. You click the aligners over your teeth, wearing them for 20-22 hours a day to gradually move your teeth into proper alignment. Every 1-2 weeks, you switch to a new set of aligners until your teeth shift to their ideal final positions. Ortho FX is an innovation leader in aligner polymers, the next-generation of clear aligners made from their revolutionary FXtera with multiple polymer options to choose from including “Bright” giving you instantly whiter teeth.
Is Ortho FX right for me?
Dr. Rendon will evaluate your smile to determine if Ortho FX is the right way to straighten your teeth. Ortho FX can correct mild-to-moderate misalignment, but it can help with some severe cases as well.
Ortho FX can treat all of the following problems:
- Overbite — your top arch overlaps the bottom one
- Underbite — your bottom arch overlaps the top one
- Open bite — your top and bottom arches don’t meet when you close your mouth
- Gaps between teeth — spaces between your teeth
- Crossbite — your top and bottom jaw aren’t correctly aligned
- Crowded mouth — your jaw is too small for your teeth
Dr. Rendon can discuss your orthodontic treatment needs and explain how Ortho FX can help.
How does Ortho FX treatment planning work?
At Nicholas G. Rendon, DDS, your treatment planning starts with a series of digital mouth scans. Dr. Rendon evaluates your scans and then uses the FXplan Software to design your treatment plan.
He can map your whole treatment in stages, start-to-finish, and can even show you a preview of your final outcome. Dr. Rendon sends the treatment plan to the Ortho FX lab, where the technicians make your custom aligners.
How long does Ortho FX treatment take?
Everyone’s different, but Ortho FX offers faster treatment than similar aligner therapies. You could notice improvements in only weeks, though.
Can I afford Ortho FX treatment?
Dr, Rendon strongly believes that patients deserve affordable dental care, and he’ll discuss affordable payment options with you in detail. If your insurance covers braces, Dr. Rendon and his team can help you with your claim.
