Orthodontic Dentistry

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that specializes in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental and facial irregularities. These includes treatment of different conditions:

OverCrowding
Deep overbite
Open bite
Overjet or upper protuding teeth
Underbite or lower protuding jaw
Crossbite
Spaces in between teeth

Orthodontists requires professional skill in the design, application and control of corrective appliances, such as braces and retainers, to bring teeth, lips and jaws into proper alignment and to achieve facial balance.

The results of orthodontic treatment can be dramatic — beautiful smiles, improved dental health and an enhanced quality of life for many people of all ages. Outstanding results are also dependent on maximizing the coordination of care between you and our practice.

Metal Braces

Conventional metal braces are now smaller, more efficient and comfortable In recent years following many advances in orthodontic materials such as metal wires and brackets

Clear Braces

The metal brackets on braces can now be done clear or colored, depending on the patient's preference. Clear braces makes wearing braces less noticeable.

STb light lingual or Internal Braces

STb Lingual braces are attached to the inside or lingual side of the teeth which makes them completely non-visible. Lngual orthodontics particularly well-suited for adults whose professions keep them in the public eyes.

Invisalign

Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. This is an invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces.

Retainers

A retainer is a custom-made, removable appliance that help teeth to maintain their new position after braces have been removed. Retainers can also be used to treat minor orthodontic problems.

Signs for Early Orthodontic Examinations

Early or late loss of baby teeth
Difficulty in chewing or biting
Mouth breathing
Crowding, misplaced or blocked out teeth
Jaws that shift or make sounds
Biting the cheek or roof of the mouth
Teeth that meet or bite abnormally or not at all
Jaws and teeth that are out of proportion to the rest of the face

Benefits of Early Detection for Orthodontic Treatment

A check-up with an orthodontist no later than age 7 for children who enable the orthodontist to detect and evaluate problems (if any), advise if treatment will be necessary, and determine the best time for that patient to be treated. Patients who have clear indications for early orthodontic intervention, early treatment presents an opportunity to:

Guide the growth of the jaw
Regulate the width of the upper and lower dental arches
Guide incoming permanent teeth into desirable positions
Lower risk of trauma (accidents) to protruded upper incisors (front teeth)
Correct harmful oral habits
Reduce or eliminate abnormal swallowing or speech problems
Improve personal appearance and self-esteem
Potentially simplify and/or shorten treatment time for later corrective orthodontics
Reduce likelihood of impacted permanent teeth
Preserve or gain space for permanent teeth that are coming in

Healthy teeth can be moved at almost any age. Many orthodontic problems can be corrected for adults as children. Orthodontic forces move the teeth in the same way for both a 75-year-old adult and a 12-year-old child. However for adults, complicating factors such as lack of jaw growth, may create special treatment planning needs.
