FAQ
Why choose an orthodontist?
Selecting an orthodontist in Mississauga and Greater Toronto area who can help you achieve your smile dreams is important. Orthodontists are dental specialists who diagnose, prevent and treat dental and facial irregularities.
They receive an additional education beyond dental school to learn the proper way to align and straighten teeth. Only those with this formal education may call themselves “orthodontists.”
Dr. Shahnaz Hashim has achieved BDS, MDS (Master Dental Surgery), Certified Invisalign Provider, and The Aligner Intensive Fellowship from USA.
When should children get an orthodontic check-up?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an orthodontic screening at age seven. By this age, most children have several permanent teeth that allow us to evaluate their orthodontic needs.
We can detect subtle problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth early. Most orthodontic patients begin active braces treatment between ages 9 and 14.
Can adults benefit from orthodontic treatment?
Yes! Orthodontic treatment can be successful at almost any age. In fact, about one in four orthodontic patients today is over 18.
Thanks to modern braces and Invisalign, adults can enjoy discreet and comfortable treatment.
How long does treatment take?
Most patients need 1 to 3 years of active orthodontic treatment. Your exact timeline will be determined during your free consultation.
How much does treatment cost?
The cost depends on the complexity and duration of your treatment. At Studio Dental Orthodontics, we provide clear estimates upfront, work with insurance, and offer flexible payment plans.
What causes orthodontic problems?
Most orthodontic issues are inherited, such as crowding, spacing, protrusion, and jaw growth problems.
Other causes include thumb-sucking, accidents, early or late loss of baby teeth, or dental disease.
Why is treatment important?
Crooked and crowded teeth are harder to clean and may cause abnormal wear, chewing/speaking issues, or gum and bone stress. Without treatment, these problems often worsen over time.
What is my role in treatment?
Orthodontic treatment is a partnership. Dr. Shahnaz and team provide custom appliances, while your role is to follow instructions, keep appointments, practice excellent oral hygiene, and visit your general dentist regularly.
I had braces as a teen, but my teeth shifted. What can I do?
If you notice changes in your bite or smile, an orthodontic “tune-up” may be needed. Contact Studio Dental Orthodontics for an evaluation.
Will wisdom teeth cause teeth to shift?
Not necessarily. Research shows wisdom teeth do not always cause shifting. They are usually removed for general dental health reasons. Dr. Shahnaz & Team will help determine if removal is needed.
How long do I need to wear retainers?
Retainer use depends on your case. Retainers, whether fixed or removable, are crucial to maintaining your results. Wearing them as prescribed is the best way to keep your smile stable long-term.
Why do teeth shift after braces?
Minor shifting is natural due to chewing and biting. More noticeable changes can result from genetics, late growth, or severe crowding. Wearing retainers as prescribed prevents most movement.
What are my long-term expectations?
Teeth naturally change position over time, even after orthodontic treatment. This is not treatment failure, but part of aging. Retainers help minimize these changes.
Can retainers be worn too long?
No. Retainers stabilize your results. Many people wear them nightly for life. Dr. Shahnaz will provide long-term guidance for your case.
