Benefits of Orthodontics

How orthodontics corrects dental malpositions and enhances aesthetics.

Orthodontics not only addresses aesthetic problems, but also improves dental function. This branch of dentistry specialises in correcting malpositions, ensuring a harmonious smile.

To achieve these results, orthodontists employ advanced tools. From traditional metal brackets to modern aligners, known as invisible braces, there are options for everyone.

How does orthodontics work?

Although orthodontic systems may look different, they are all based on the same principle and work in the same way. Tooth movement is achieved by constantly applying pressure on the tooth to bring it into the desired position.

To achieve successful results, the orthodontist performs a thorough examination of the oral cavity by means of dental impressions, clinical evaluation and various radiographic examinations.

This allows you to know what the best strategy to follow will be, and to have an organised plan to ensure the success of the treatment.

Why wear braces?

Although aesthetics is usually the main concern, there are a number of negative repercussions caused by dental malpositions and malocclusions, such as:

Gingivitis

Malpositions, such as dental crowding, can hinder proper oral hygiene. This favours the appearance of dental calculus and diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis.

Caries

As with gingivitis, difficulty in achieving proper oral hygiene can lead to the development of caries, especially between the teeth.

Musculoskeletal disorders

Malocclusions can lead to an imbalance in the bite. This can be reflected as muscle pain or injury to the jaw joint.

For this reason, having an aligned smile not only improves aesthetics, it also improves oral health.

Invisible orthodontics

Invisible orthodontics refers to the use of clear aligners to correct malocclusions. These splints go unnoticed during treatment and can be placed and removed freely by the patient.

This treatment consists of using a series of aligners in sequential order for a certain amount of time. Each aligner will move the teeth a little until the desired result is achieved.

The planning and fabrication of the aligners is done using digital technology, which allows the final result to be viewed on a computer before treatment begins using ClinCheck software.

We work with Invisalign

In our clinic, we work with the Invisalign system, which was the first of the modern aligners and has proven to be the most efficient and effective.

Interceptive orthodontics

We use removable appliances in children to help achieve proper craniofacial harmony. These orthodontic appliances can be placed and removed freely by the patient.

In addition, they promote the development of the jaw bone to prevent dental crowding.

They help to move teeth into a more favourable position, which may prevent the need for fixed orthodontics in adolescence or adulthood, or lessen the severity of the case, thus making future treatment shorter.

In addition, these appliances can also be used to prevent para-functional habits such as thumb sucking and lip biting, which, if left unchecked, can cause skeletal deformities such as deep palate and anterior open bite.
