Orthodontics
Orthodontics
is a branch of dentistry treating dental
and facial irregularities by manipulating
tooth position, and jaw growth in children,
with braces or removable appliances.
Although growing parental awareness and
their own self-consciousness, results in
more and more children undergoing orthodontic
treatment, it is not limited to children.
Adult orthodontics is not only possible,
but common …with astounding results.
Straightening your teeth enhances your appearance
and self-image and can improve your health.
Straight teeth are more commonly healthier
than crooked or crowded teeth since they
are much easier to clean and maintain. People
with straight teeth are less prone to tooth
decay and gum disease. Orthodontic treatment
also corrects the bite and, in growing children,
jaw position, and plays an important role
in reducing tooth wear and stress on the
jaw joints. In adults, treatment can range
from simple therapy, aligning one or more
teeth, to complex therapy correcting misaligned
jaws. Thus …orthodontics can enhance
your smiles as well as improve your long-term
dental health, function, and facial profile.
Before commencing treatment, a comprehensive
treatment plan is formulated using X-rays
and stone models of your teeth. Whether
for a simple minor tooth movement or for
a comprehensive treatment please make an
appointment through our Call-Back Service
for a consultation to discuss your options
and the costs involved.
