It should be very obvious from the posts that braces are first in line. However, before starting any treatment, make sure to have a thorough planning session with a dentist that looks at the whole picture. Implants are best described as a journey, many times taking up to a year to finish. Although some are completed in shorter periods, speed is not a measure when you are dealing with dental implants. Braces also take a long time to properly move the teeth, 18 months or longer. Some people promise shorter healing /treatment periods, be careful- if sounds to good it may be. Doing this right is the only way, you will receive great benefits from the final results; it's worth both the time & the expense.
