Markham's Oasis Orthodontics Reports Planning Expertise Drives Outcomes Over Appliance Type
ON L30 2R5 Canada (FreePR.org) -- Orthodontic treatment success depends more on expert planning than on appliance type alone, according to Dr. Khushee Sharma-Fung, an orthodontist at Oasis Orthodontics in Markham who also teaches at the University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry. While patients often focus on choosing between Invisalign and traditional braces, the custom treatment plan designed before any appliance placement determines outcomes, the orthodontist explained. Two patients can use identical appliances but require completely different treatment approaches based on individual bite patterns, growth factors, tooth positions, and treatment goals, clinical observations show.
Dr. Sharma-Fung, who completed orthodontic specialty training at King's College London, founded Oasis Orthodontics in 2010. In her teaching role at the University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry, she helps train future dentists in treatment planning methodologies and diagnostic assessment approaches.
"Two patients can use the same appliance but need completely different treatment plans," Dr. Sharma-Fung said in a recent interview. "The planning happens first. We analyze bite relationships, growth patterns, tooth positions, and individual goals before selecting any appliance. That diagnostic phase drives everything that follows."
Treatment planning begins with diagnostic records, including X-rays, photographs, and detailed bite analysis, according to standard orthodontic protocols. The orthodontist evaluates facial growth patterns in younger patients, jaw relationships, tooth positions, and functional occlusion. This diagnostic phase often reveals underlying issues not visible to patients, the orthodontist noted.
Parents frequently ask which appliance produces the fastest results, according to clinical experience at the Markham practice. However, treatment speed depends on case complexity rather than appliance choice, research shows. Mild crowding cases progress quickly regardless of whether clear aligners or conventional braces are selected. Severe bite discrepancies require longer treatment timelines with any appliance system. The treatment plan must account for these individual case factors.
The same Invisalign system requires different planning approaches for each patient, clinical observations demonstrate. One patient might require attachments placed on specific teeth to facilitate particular movements. Another patient might need different tooth movement sequencing to address bite relationships. The appliances appear identical to casual observers, but the treatment planning behind each case differs completely based on diagnostic findings.
Treatment planning also incorporates patient age and growth considerations. Children with active jaw growth require different orthodontic approaches than adults with fully developed skeletal structures, according to established orthodontic principles. The orthodontist must account for these biological factors when designing tooth movement sequences and predicting treatment timelines.
Dr. Sharma-Fung conducts all patient appointments personally in private treatment rooms at the practice's Washington Street location in historic Markham Village. The practice maintains evening and Saturday appointment availability to accommodate working families seeking orthodontic care.
Clinical experience level affects treatment planning quality, according to the orthodontist's observations. An orthodontist's specialised training and accumulated clinical judgment determine how effectively they analyse complex cases, anticipate potential complications, and design efficient tooth movement strategies. Not all orthodontists approach treatment planning identically, she noted.
"Patients should inquire about the treatment planning process during initial consultations," Dr. Sharma-Fung stated. "Understanding how an orthodontist analyzes their specific case matters more than which appliance brand gets selected. The appliance executes the plan, but the plan itself determines treatment success or failure."
The practice provides individualised treatment planning for all patients whether they select Invisalign clear aligners, ceramic braces, or conventional metal braces. Each case receives detailed diagnostic analysis before any appliance recommendation.
