2. RECORD COLLECTION
Before fixing the braces, for every patient as a rule, we ask for certain X-rays(OPG, lateral cephalogram), take digital photographs of the face and the teeth and make study models of the teeth. These records are throughly evaluated and in combination with the clinicalexamination a suitable treatment plan is made.
