Orthodontic Treatment Care and Maintenance

Great smiles begin with great attention to oral care.

What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with diagnosis, prevention, interception, guidance and correction of dental and skeletal irregularities.

Orthodontist is a specialist who has knowledge to consider all possibilities such as age, jaw imbalances, difference in the size of your teeth and more. They are the best person to know what to use and when to use according to your dental needs.

Orthodontic treatment is a way of straightening and moving the crooked teeth, to improve the appearance and functioning of the teeth.

There are various treatment options these days ranging from traditional metal braces, ceramic braces to clear aligners. Each has their own specific uses.  According to your need, your orthodontist will advise you the best possible option.

Orthodontic treatment is a significant asset for your beautiful smile.

Here are few facts about Orthodontic Treatment:

The treatment takes time, and it depends on the complexity of the malocclusion, and varies from  person to person. Patience is the key.

 Initial discomfort, inconvenience, slight pressure and pain, inability to chew or brush efficiently, ulcers, can be expected, and following our experts suggestions will assure acclimatisation to the appliances worn, especially fixed braces.

Following your orthodontist’s suggestions ensures great results!

So our team shares with you some important tips to follow, and those that you should not do in order to achieve perfection.

Please remember, whatever you do, will reflect on the treatment. So always be aware of your actions and the effects they produce on your teeth. Your orthodontist cannot be held accountable for the lapses or neglect on your behalf.

An appointment delayed is treatment delayed. Do not postpone them; they are vital for completing treatment on time.
