About Orthodontics

If you’re looking for orthodontic braces in Frisco, TX, Coit Dental is your trusted local provider for traditional metal braces and orthodontic treatment for all ages. Whether your child needs early orthodontic intervention, your teenager is ready to start treatment, or you’re an adult finally prioritizing your smile — we have the experience and technology to create lasting results.

Misaligned teeth and a poor bite aren't just an aesthetic concern. Crooked teeth are harder to clean, increasing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and early tooth loss. They also place excessive stress on the jaw muscles, which can lead to headaches, TMJ syndrome, and even neck and shoulder pain.

How to straighten teeth is a question many adults ask when they missed orthodontic treatment at an early age. Crooked teeth and teeth that do not fit together correctly are harder to keep clean, and they risk early tooth loss from tooth decay and periodontal disease. Crooked teeth can also detract from one’s appearance — beautiful, straight teeth are associated with numerous positive qualities.

Orthodontic braces address all of these issues — delivering a healthier bite alongside a more confident smile.

Life With Braces

What to Expect During Orthodontic Braces Treatment

Life with traditional braces is very manageable once you know what to expect. Metal brackets are bonded to your teeth and connected by wires that guide each tooth into proper position over time. You may experience mild soreness for a day or two after each adjustment — this is completely normal and a sign the treatment is working.

There are a few dietary adjustments to keep in mind. We recommend avoiding hard or sticky foods — like hard candies, popcorn, and pizza crust — that can damage brackets or wires. Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is especially important during treatment; brushing after every meal and flossing daily prevents plaque buildup around brackets.

Most patients are surprised by how quickly they adapt. Within a few weeks, braces become part of the routine — and the end result, a perfectly aligned smile, is well worth the commitment.

Braces vs. Invisalign — Which Orthodontic Treatment Is Right for You

Both traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners are effective orthodontic treatments, but they serve different needs. Traditional braces are the preferred option for complex cases — including severe crowding, significant bite issues, and cases requiring precise control over tooth movement. They work continuously, 24 hours a day, and don't rely on patient compliance.

Invisalign, on the other hand, is removable and virtually invisible — making it a popular choice for adults and image-conscious teens with mild to moderate alignment issues. In some cases, Dr. Thasma may recommend combining both methods for the best outcome.

Not sure which is right for you? Compare with Invisalign or book a free consultation and let Dr. Thasma help you decide.
