Indirect Bonding
A common question from our patients is “How will you put my braces on?”
In most cases, we will use a technique called Indirect Bonding for the placement of the orthodontic brackets. The OrthoCad IQ system is used in preparation for the patient’s individualized treatment plan to prepare for the indirect bonding procedure. The impressions that are taken here in the offices are sent to Cadent Lab and along with the assistance of computer technology, your brackets are prepared and ready for placement before your appointment.
OrthoCAD
OrthoCAD™, provides 3-D digital models for orthodontic treatment planning and the correct placement of appliances. OrthoCAD study models allow the orthodontist to make accurate measurements for the treatment plan while at the same time eliminating plaster model storage and retrieval issues. OrthoCAD's iQ™ service allows practitioners to simulate treatment strategies and select and execute the most appropriate treatment plan that includes precise positioning of orthodontic brackets. OrthoCAD IQ services reduce the treatment time and number of patient visits by more than 30%, benefiting patients and orthodontists alike.
