Details

Braces are orthodontic appliances used to correct various dental issues related to the alignment of the teeth and jaws. They consist of brackets, wires, and other components that work together to apply gentle pressure to the teeth, gradually moving them into their desired positions.

Features & Benefits:

Correcting Malocclusions
Braces are commonly used to correct malocclusions, which are dental misalignments such as crooked teeth, crowded teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

Improving Dental Aesthetics
Braces can improve the appearance of the smile by aligning the teeth properly, creating a straighter and more attractive smile.

Enhancing Oral Health
Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of plaque buildup, cavities, and gum disease. Braces can contribute to better oral hygiene and overall oral health.

Preventing Dental Problems
By addressing dental misalignments, braces can help prevent potential dental problems that may arise from malocclusions, such as excessive wear on teeth, TMJ disorders, and speech difficulties.

Boosting Self-Confidence
Improving the alignment of teeth can boost self-esteem and confidence, especially for individuals who may have been self-conscious about their smiles.

Facilitating Proper Bite
Correcting malocclusions helps ensure that the upper and lower teeth fit together properly, which promotes efficient chewing and reduces strain on the jaw joints.

Guiding Tooth Eruption
In some cases, braces are used to guide the eruption of permanent teeth in children to prevent overcrowding and ensure proper alignment.

Individualized Treatment
Braces can be tailored to suit the specific needs of each patient, with orthodontic specialists creating treatment plans based on the individual's unique dental condition and goals.
