What is Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontic treatment is a treatment method applied to correct and align the teeth and jaw and to achieve a healthy bite. Crowding of the teeth, gaps between the teeth and defects in the jaw structure are corrected with this treatment. The treatment is done with appliances such as brackets, wires and clear aligners.
Why is Orthodontic Treatment Important?
While providing an aesthetic smile, orthodontic treatment also protects your oral health. Properly aligned teeth reduce the risk of gum disease and cavities, and improve eating and speaking functions.
In Which Cases Orthodontic Treatment is Required?
- Correction of crowded teeth
- Closing the gaps between teeth
- Elimination of disorders in the jaw structure
- Malocclusion (bite disorders)
Starting treatment in childhood can be effective, but successful results can also be achieved in adults. Each individual's situation is different and orthodontic treatment is planned individually.
