Orthodontic care is a dental specialty that takes into account aesthetics, functionality, ease of cleaning, and overall health. Orthodontics encompasses a range of techniques and therapies to diagnose, prevent, and correct existing dental anomalies. Whether it's overcrowded teeth, gaps, deep bites, or open bites, the orthodontic expert will create a comprehensive treatment plan to address your specific issue.
How Does Orthodontic Appliances Work?
At the heart of orthodontics is the mechanism provided by orthodontic appliances, which has evolved into a controlled movement over decades of continuous development. This mechanism involves brackets, wires, and bands attached to the teeth, exerting continuous, calculated pressure to move the teeth into their desired positions. The process of orthodontic treatment is controlled yet effective to ensure that the achieved results are maintained.
What Types of Orthodontic Appliances Are There?
- Removable braces: These devices are suitable for children with mixed dentition containing milky and secondary teeth and are used to treat functional deviations in growing children, helping to establish correct tooth positions to some extent.
- Fixed appliances:
-
- Metal braces: One of the most common types of appliances, metal brackets are bonded to the surface of the teeth.
- Semi-aesthetic braces: In this type, aesthetic brackets are attached to the teeth from canine to canine, while metal brackets are placed on the posterior teeth.
- Aesthetic braces: Tooth-colored ceramic brackets are attached to the teeth' surfaces to achieve the highest aesthetic standards.
- Invisible appliances: Modern orthodontic appliances that use transparent, removable aligners to move the teeth. These clear, removable aligners offer aesthetic advantages and comfortable wear.
