Dr. William Oliver, DDS
Orthodontist
Dr. William Oliver practices Orthodontics in Everett, WA. 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. Oliver may also use Invisalign or other aligner trays that have been designed to align a patients? smile. As an orthodontist, Dr. Oliver 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.

I am diabetic and have to undergo an orthodontic treatment. Will my diabetes affect my healing process?
Yes, how much depends on your type and control. Not a reason not to treat, but need great oral hygiene.
My son is 3 years old and is still on the bottle. Will it have an impact on the shape of his teeth?
I suggest you switch to the Comotomo type nipple to help avoid jaw development problems that often can happen.
How long should one keep their braces to correct the alignment of the bottom teeth?
A lot of variables depend upon it, so from 3 months to 3 years, depending.

Normally braces do not hurt but moving teeth can make them sore to chew
