Common Questions from Cambridge Patients

What makes an experienced orthodontist important?

Orthodontics is both art and science. Dr. Melita’s 30 years of practice and thousands of completed cases provide the clinical judgment to handle unexpected challenges, achieve optimal results, and provide accurate treatment timelines. This level of expertise simply cannot be replicated by less experienced practitioners.

How much time will treatment require?

Most orthodontic treatment is completed within 12-24 months, though individual cases vary. Dr. Melita provides realistic timeframes based on your specific needs and her extensive experience with similar cases. Appointments typically occur every 6-10 weeks and last 15-30 minutes.

Can I continue my normal activities during treatment?

Absolutely. Cambridge patients maintain their active lifestyles throughout orthodontic treatment. Modern braces are more comfortable than ever, and Invisalign aligners are removable for special occasions. You can continue playing sports (with a protective mouthguard), playing instruments, and participating in all your regular activities.

What’s included in the treatment cost?

Our comprehensive fee includes all appointments, adjustments, appliances, and retainers. We provide complete cost transparency upfront, so you’ll never encounter unexpected charges.
