Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities. The primary aim is to straighten misaligned teeth and correct improper bites, ensuring both functional and aesthetic improvements
Key Treatments:
Braces: Traditional metal braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into their correct positions.
Clear Aligners: Removable, nearly invisible aligners such as Invisalign that straighten teeth without metal wires or brackets.
Retainers: Devices worn post-treatment to maintain the new position of teeth.
Palatal Expanders: Appliances used to widen the upper jaw to improve bite and alignment.
Space Maintainers: Devices used to hold space for permanent teeth when baby teeth are lost prematurely.
Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment:
Improved Oral Health: Correctly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Enhanced Aesthetics: Straighter teeth and a better-aligned jaw contribute to a more attractive smile.
Better Functionality: Corrects bite issues, making it easier to chew and speak properly.
Increased Confidence: A beautiful smile boosts self-esteem and confidence
