Orthodontic treatment

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and correction of positional abnormalities of the teeth and jaws. The importance of orthodontics is significant, not only for the aesthetics of the smile, but also for the overall health of the oral cavity and the correct functioning of the dento-maxillary apparatus.

Main aspects of orthodontics:

1. Correct alignment of teeth

Correctly aligned teeth are easier to clean and maintain, reducing the risk of cavities, tartar and gum disease. If teeth are crooked, crowded or crowded, it is more difficult to maintain proper oral hygiene.

2. Prevent chewing problems

Proper occlusion (how the upper and lower teeth meet) is essential for effective chewing. If teeth are not aligned correctly, this can cause chewing difficulties, which can affect digestion and gastrointestinal health.

3. Prevent joint and muscle problems

Incorrect occlusion can lead to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction, causing jaw pain, headaches, tension in the muscles of the face and even neck pain. Correcting tooth position and bite can significantly reduce the risk of these problems.

4. Improving pronunciation and speaking

Incorrect tooth position can influence how sounds are articulated. Some orthodontic problems can lead to speech difficulties such as whistling or distorted sounds. Orthodontic correction can help improve speech clarity.

5. Prevent tooth abrasion and wear

Teeth that are not aligned correctly can suffer excessive wear due to incorrect contact with other teeth during chewing. Orthodontics helps to evenly distribute forces during chewing, preventing excessive abrasion and tooth fractures.

6. Improving smile aesthetics

A beautiful, correctly aligned smile can improve self-confidence and self-image. For many patients, orthodontic treatment is essential for achieving an aesthetically pleasing smile, which can have a positive impact on social and professional life.

7. Correction of jaw growth and development problems

In children and teenagers, orthodontics can correct jaw developmental abnormalities and prevent future problems related to facial asymmetry or other dento-facial anomalies. Early intervention can correct harmful habits, such as thumb sucking or mouth breathing, which can negatively influence dento-maxillary development.

8. Long-term prevention

Orthodontic treatment helps prevent long-term dental and general health problems. A correctly aligned smile not only improves oral health, but reduces the risk of more complex dental procedures in the future, such as root canals, tooth extractions or orthognathic surgery.

9. General well-being

A healthy and functional smile contributes to quality of life and overall well-being. Orthodontics can improve both physical and psychological comfort, with a significant impact on general health and self-confidence.

10. Accessibility for all ages

Although it is ideal to start at a young age, orthodontic treatment has no age limit. Adult orthodontics is becoming increasingly popular due to the development of aesthetic and effective solutions.

Doctor White Clinic offers the most advanced orthodontic solutions to ensure a beautiful and healthy smile. We utilize a wide range of high-quality braces to meet the needs and preferences of each patient.

Our options include ‘Dentaurum’ metal braces (Germany), known for their durability and efficiency, and ‘Forestadent’ ceramic braces (Germany), which combine superior aesthetics with efficient performance.

We also offer self-ligating metal and ceramic braces from American Orthodontics (U.S.A.) These modern braces reduce treatment time and frequency of orthodontic visits due to their self-ligating system, which eliminates the need for elastics and reduces friction. For patients who want discreet treatment, ceramic braces are almost invisible and very effective.

For the little ones, the “Myobrace” system (USA) is an innovative solution that promotes natural and correct dental development without the use of traditional braces. This brace is ideal for children and adolescents, contributing to the healthy growth of teeth and jaws.
