What is Orthodontic Treatment?

Orthodontics; is a specialty that many dentists have after obtaining the necessary trainings.

After these examinations, a treatment plan is prepared according to the needs and wishes of the patient. The orthodontic treatment, enables the patient to get a proper jaw and tooth structure for a gorgeous smile.

Why Do Orthodontic Diseases Occur?

Orthodontics diseases can occur and develop for many reasons. The fact that the patient’s congenital lower or upper jaw structure is narrow/wide or forward/behind, disorders of the jawbone, a structure of the tongue that is larger than necessary, and a mismatch of the upper and lower jaw are among the causes of orthodontic disorders. It is not only innate to have orthodontic diseases.

How to Treat Orthodontic Problems?

In order to apply an orthodontic treatment, our experienced dentists take the patient’s age, pre-existing diseases, and jaw and dental structure into account while determining the present orthodontic disorder. Whether the patient is a developing one plays an important role in choosing the type of treatment to be applied. While it is sufficient to apply just the orthodontic treatment to patients of developmental age, a surgical cooperation is absolutely necessary in the orthodontic treatment of patients who have completed their development. After all the analysis and examinations are performed, the most suitable method that gives the most successful result according to the patients’ needs and desires is recommended by our specialist dentists. A special treatment plan is created according to the pre-examinations of the patient. Furthermore, the patient’s teeth should not need any other dental treatment before the orthodontic treatment begins. After the hygiene in the mouth is maintained, the necessary measurements are made and special braces or transparent plaques are created for the patient. According to the patient’s request and need, braces are placed on his/her teeth. For the teeth of a patient who prefers the transparent plaque, suitable plaque molds are created. As a result of these procedures, our specialist dentists ensure that patients have an excellent smile.

What is Brace Orthodontics?

Brace orthodontics is one of the orthodontic treatment methods. The most important tool of the treatment is an apparatus that is glued to the patient’s teeth also known as a bracket. These devices have holes through which the wires can pass, allowing light pressure to be applied to the teeth in the desired direction. The device that makes the teeth move in the right direction in order to look smooth and even is called a bracket. Thanks to this treatment method, the patient can have the perfect smile that he/she has always been dreamt of.

How is the Process of the Brace Treatment?

Before starting the orthodontic treatment, all examinations are performed and a specific personalized treatment plan is prepared for the patient. In accordance with this plan, brackets are placed in the patient’s mouth. In the brace treatment that is used to move the teeth in the jawbone slowly and painlessly into the desired position, wires that practice smooth and continuous force to the teeth are attached. The continuous and light pressure made by these wires puts the teeth in the desired position. The positioning of the teeth within the jawbone occurs on average one or two mm per month. Tires that will help the teeth to change position can be added to this treatment process according to the patient’s needs. Thanks to the professional dentists in our clinic, it is possible to get the desired perfect result in a short period of time.
