What is orthodontics?
Orthodontic occlusion correction with brace-system is an effective method of treating teeth crookedness and position of the jaws in children and adults. The correction is carried out by changing the position of the teeth to the anatomical norm. The more responsive the tissues of the dentition, the faster the result is achieved.
Therefore, dentists recommend putting on braces at the age of 12-14. However, this does not mean that it is no longer possible for adults to correct the pathological situation. Modern orthodontic constructions solve the problem of pathological occlusion in a given case at almost any age and give self-confidence for many years.
Methods of treatment of orthodontic anomalies
Braces, for many decades, continue to be effective, reliable, and safe orthodontic appliances that allow carefully correcting defects in the position in the upper and lower teeth. It is most effective to use braces during adolescence when the bite is still forming. Using rubber bands for braces helps you achieve the desired result. Despite the temporary aesthetic inconvenience during brace-system treatment, it will result in a beautiful smile.
The effectiveness of braces lies in the symbiosis of the prescribed prescription and the ability of orthodontic archwires to return to their shape. Due to this, teeth take their correct position. Adjusting archwires apply constant moderate pressure on the braces themselves, which leads to a correction of the dentition. The mechanism of occlusion correction is based on the so-called metal arch shape memory.
FAQ
At what age can you get braces?
It is possible to start the orthodontic treatment with braces at the age of 12-13 after the root ends of permanent teeth have formed.
Do you need to extract teeth before getting braces?
It all depends on the pathology, which your doctor determines.
Do braces damage teeth?
If the patient has excellent hygiene, then the enamel traces are minimal. Still, there is remineralization therapy (saturation of the tooth tissues with minerals to strengthen the enamel and prevent cavities) according to the indications for those who have problems.
This process is reduced when the lingual technique is applied.
What should be done after removing the bracket system?
After the end of orthodontic treatment, a retention period begins. During this period, it is essential to make a retention device (for example, a retainer, splint, or plate), which will fix and maintain the result.
Can see the result after treatment with a bracket system?
Yes, there is. After taking impressions, your expected result after treatment is simulated.
How long does treatment take?
The duration of wearing orthodontic appliances depends on the case’s complexity, age and other factors. The average treatment period is 1.5-2 years.
