Phase two orthodontics, also known as comprehensive orthodontic treatment, is the second stage of orthodontic care that occurs after a child has lost all of their baby teeth. The goal of phase two treatment is to address any remaining orthodontic issues and achieve the desired final result, such as a correct bite and straight teeth. This stage typically involves the use of braces or aligners and may last anywhere from 12 to 24 months, depending on the complexity of the case. Regular visits to the orthodontist are essential throughout the treatment process to ensure that the teeth are moving as intended.
