ORTHODONTICS

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws, commonly referred to as malocclusions. The practice of orthodontics aims to improve both the functionality and aesthetics of the teeth and smile. Orthodontic treatments involve the use of various devices, such as braces, aligners, and retainers, to gently reposition teeth into their proper alignment. This not only enhances facial appearance but also contributes to better oral health by making it easier to clean teeth, preventing issues like tooth decay and gum disease. Orthodontic care can benefit patients of all ages, offering customized solutions to create a harmonious bite, improved dental function, and a confident smile.
