Braces (Orthodontic treatment)
Orthodontic treatment is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of misaligned teeth and jaws. The goal of orthodontic treatment is to improve the functionality, appearance, and overall oral health of an individual by repositioning teeth and jaws into proper alignment.
Orthodontic problems can include crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other irregularities. These issues can be caused by genetic factors, early loss of baby teeth, thumb sucking, accidents, or poor dental habits.
Orthodontic treatment typically involves the use of orthodontic appliances, the most common being braces. Common problems corrected using orthodontic appliances like metal braces, ceramic (tooth-coloured), lingual braces and clear path aligners (invisalign or invisible braces). Braces gradually apply gentle pressure to the teeth, guiding them into the desired positions over time.
The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the severity of the case, but it often ranges from several months to a few years. Throughout the treatment, regular adjustments and check-ups with an orthodontist are necessary to monitor progress and make any necessary modifications.
Orthodontic treatment offers numerous benefits, including improved oral hygiene, enhanced aesthetics and better bite alignment, reduced risk of tooth decay and gum disease, and improved overall dental health. It can also contribute to improved speech and jaw function.
