What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities. Using various appliances, such as braces and aligners, orthodontic treatment can enhance your dental health and improve your overall appearance.
Common Orthodontic Issues
- Crowded Teeth: When teeth overlap or twist due to lack of space.
- Gaps Between Teeth: Spaces that can lead to food traps and oral hygiene issues.
- Overbite: When the upper front teeth significantly overlap the lower front teeth.
- Underbite: When the lower teeth protrude beyond the upper teeth.
- Crossbite: When upper and lower teeth do not align properly when biting.
Types of Orthodontic Treatments
-
Traditional Metal Braces: The most common type, made of high-grade stainless steel, featuring brackets and wires that gradually shift teeth into place.
-
Ceramic Braces: Similar to metal braces, but made from clear materials, making them less noticeable.
-
Lingual Braces: Attached to the back of the teeth, providing a discreet option for those seeking aesthetics without sacrificing effectiveness.
-
Clear Aligners (e.g., Invisalign): Custom-made, removable aligners that gradually straighten teeth without the need for brackets or wires.
