Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a speciality of Dental Medicine dedicated to correcting the bad position of the teeth and the relationship between the jaws. In other words, orthodontics consists of moving the teeth in order to regain harmonious dental alignment and improve oral function.

This discipline has made considerable progress in recent years. With the latest technological innovations, dental braces are becoming more and more comfortable and discreet, in particular thanks to the use of invisible ceramic appliances.

Orthodontic treatments for both children and adults vary according to the patient's age. Teeth in the wrong position are harder to clean and risk premature loss through decay and/or periodontal disease. Misaligned teeth can lead to muscular tension, resulting in headaches, TMJ disorders and neck, shoulder and back pain. Misaligned teeth can also seriously impair the beauty of a smile.

How do I know if I need orthodontic treatment?

Only your dentist or orthodontist can tell if you need orthodontic treatment. An active treatment plan will be decided on the basis of a diagnosis based on your medical and dental history.

If any of the following apply to you, you may need orthodontic treatment:

  • The upper teeth cover the lower teeth too much.
  • There is no contact between the teeth when closing.
  • The lower teeth are in front of the upper teeth.
  • The middle of the upper jaw does not correspond with the middle of the lower jaw.
  • The upper teeth do not overhang the lower teeth.
  • There is a space that exists naturally between the teeth or is caused by extractions.
  • There is not enough room for all the teeth, so they have to overlap.

How is an orthodontic treatment carried out?

We use different types of fixed and mobile appliances for the correction of misaligned teeth. Removable invisible dentures are used to help move teeth, rehabilitate muscles, and alter the growth of the jaws. Wearing clear braces and aligners work by exerting light pressure on the teeth. The complexity of your problem will determine which orthodontic approach to use.
