What is Orthodontic Treatment?

It is a specialty of dentistry that diagnoses, prevents and treats crooked teeth and incompatible jaw relationships.

Why do teeth become crooked and how is it treated?

When the size of the teeth is not compatible with the size of the jaw, the teeth are arranged crookedly or spaced apart to fit into the jaw. In such dental and skeletal disorders, orthodontic treatment is applied to bring the teeth back to their ideal alignment and bite.

Can orthodontic treatment be performed at any age?

There is no age limit for orthodontic treatment. However, treatment planning and duration may vary depending on age. In recent years, adult orthodontics has become widespread all over the world. Minimizing aesthetic concerns, especially by using porcelain brackets and transparent plates, is a positive development in terms of people’s social lives.
