What Is Phase I (Interceptive) And Phase II (Comprehensive) Treatment?

Phase I or Interceptive Treatment takes place when the child has most of their baby teeth and a few of their permanent front incisors. This means that Phase I treatment can typically begin between the ages of seven and nine. The objective Phase I treatment is to treat a moderate or severe orthodontic problem early enough to reduce or eliminate it. If the problem is not fully corrected in Phase I, the Phase II treatment will typically be less invasive and shorter than if Phase I treatment had not occurred. The problems eligible for phase I treatment include skeletal discrepancies, cross-bites, and severe crowding. Phase I treatment takes advantage of the developing jaw and mouth to reduce or eliminate the severity of a problem.

Phase II treatment typically takes place years later after waiting for the remaining permanent teeth to erupt, including second molars. This level of development is typically completed around the age of 12 or 13. The goal of Phase II treatment is to fine-tune the bite and smile with all of the permanent teeth.

Your first appointment is a very dynamic session. We will begin by introducing you to all of our staff including the doctor, we will show you around the office, and make sure you feel at home. We will then gather your personal information and clinical history. You can make streamline the information gathering process by downloading the patient information and health history forms directly from our website, you can then submit them online or bring them filled out to your appointment.

The next step is for one of our team members to go over the orthodontic process with you and present you with a video that covers the multiple steps of evaluation and record taking. Diagnostic records including digital scans, impressions, photographs, and/or x-rays necessary to diagnose and establish an effective comprehensive treatment plan. For most patients, we can diagnose using a digital 3D scan of their mouths and teeth and avoid messy impressions.

Once we have finished gathering records and determining the diagnosis, will present you with a computer simulation of the treatment options we recommend for your case. At this time, we will require your input to determine your aesthetic goals which will be taken into consideration to determine the best treatment plan for you. For our younger patients, we strongly recommend that the child and either all parents or all legal guardians are present for this session since it involves making important decisions.

The orthodontic process is officially kicked off with your initial visit to the office. During your first visit, we will ask you to fill out your patient information and health history forms. You can also submit these forms online before your appointment to streamline the process.

Once we have gathered your information, we will introduce you to our treatment coordinator who will introduce you to the rest of the team and give you a tour of our office. Then, the diagnostic records will be made. The diagnostic records typically include X-rays, a 3D scan of our teeth and supporting structures, and in some rare cases impressions.

Financial and Insurance

However, we are happy to assist you to determine your coverage and we will guide you through the filing and reimbursement process.

We offer flexible scheduling that includes evening hours to accommodate our busy adult and adolescent patients in addition to after school appointments for our younger patients. However, there are specific appointments such as appliance placement appointments and braces removal appointments that need to be scheduled at the times that allow the doctors to dedicate the longer required amount of time and attention to your appointment.

This policy allows us to guarantee the highest quality of care by dedicating the appropriate amount of time and attention to all of our patients.

Any type of emergency can be scary, however, you will be pleased to learn that orthodontic emergencies are rare.

Invisalign treatment allows the patients to undergo orthodontic treatment with few interruptions to their lifestyle. Patients can remove their aligners occasionally for a special day and for up to two hours per day to eat, drink, brush, and floss. The aligners are made of a clear material and comfortable material that makes them virtually invisible.

Invisalign is a novel treatment option that offers patients flexibility through the use of clear and removable aligners to move the teeth into their assigned positions. This treatment allows the patients to undergo orthodontic treatment with few interruptions to their lifestyle. Patients can remove their aligners occasionally for a special day and for up to two hours per day to eat, drink, brush, and floss. The aligners are made of a clear material and comfortable material that makes them virtually invisible.

Early intervention is also known as phase 1 treatment. This treatment can only take place when the patient has mixed dentition, meaning the patient still has primary teeth with some permanent teeth erupted. Beginning treatment at this stage of development can be beneficial in many ways such as avoiding permanent tooth loss, enhancing facial growth, improving airway architecture, and reducing treatment times while improving the possibilities to achieve better results for future treatment.

Adolescents are another age group with very specific needs. Patient participation and commitment are crucial to the success of any treatment. With this group, patient engagement is constantly a challenge. Our doctor addresses this challenge by educating the patient about the reasons behind their treatment and what the outcome will be. We also strongly recommend using Damon technology with this group to reduce treatment time while continuing to guarantee a high-quality outcome and of course avoid permanent tooth extractions. With this technology, our teens will see results in a shorter time and suffer fewer interruptions to their usual activities.

Adult patients are a really fun group to work with because they understand the importance of seeking orthodontic care and are full participants in the decision-making process. We appreciate having discussions about the varying treatment options and being able to go over the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Adult cases can also present specific challenges due to their stage of development. For example, if adults need adjustments to the jaw, this is usually only possible through orthognathic surgery which involves a collaborative effort between multiple specialists. Some adult patients may also suffer from periodontal disease or other issues derived from the natural aging process. Adults may also have missing teeth from trauma or past tooth extractions.

The Damon System is a state-of-the-art product that can achieve results faster and in a more comfortable manner than traditional bracket systems.
