Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that treats malocclusion, a condition in which the teeth are not correctly positioned when the mouth is closed. This results in an improper bite. An orthodontist specializes in making the teeth straight.

Orthodontics is a specialized field within dentistry devoted to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of malocclusion, a condition where the teeth are misaligned when the mouth is closed, leading to an improper bite. New Smiles Dental Clinic, recognizing the significance of orthodontic care, stands at the forefront of providing comprehensive services to address these concerns and enhance oral health.

Understanding Orthodontics:

Orthodontics encompasses a wide range of treatments aimed at achieving proper teeth alignment and bite correction. At New Smiles Dental Clinic, our dedicated team of orthodontists is committed to helping patients achieve not just aesthetically pleasing smiles but also optimal oral functionality.

Conditions Treated:

1. Malocclusion: Malocclusion refers to the misalignment of teeth, affecting how they fit together when the mouth is closed. It can manifest as overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other issues. Orthodontists at New Smiles Dental Clinic specialize in diagnosing and addressing malocclusion to restore proper dental alignment.
2. Crowded Teeth: Crowded teeth occur when there is insufficient space for teeth to align properly, leading to overlapping or twisted teeth. Orthodontic interventions, such as braces or clear aligners, can effectively address this issue.
3. Spacing Issues: Gaps between teeth can result from missing teeth or natural spacing. Orthodontic treatments aim to close gaps and create a harmonious alignment, enhancing both appearance and function.
4. Jaw Misalignment: Some orthodontic issues stem from discrepancies in jaw alignment, causing discomfort and affecting overall oral health. Orthodontists at New Smiles Dental Clinic employ various techniques to correct these misalignments.

Orthodontic Treatments at New Smiles Dental Clinic:

1. Braces: Traditional braces, consisting of metal brackets and wires, remain a reliable method for correcting various orthodontic issues. New Smiles Dental Clinic offers customized braces treatment plans tailored to individual needs.
2. Clear Aligners: For those seeking a more discreet option, clear aligners provide an aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional braces. These transparent trays gradually shift teeth into the desired position.
3. Retainers: Following active orthodontic treatment, retainers help maintain the achieved results by preventing teeth from reverting to their previous positions.

Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment:

1. Improved Oral Health: Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of oral health issues such as cavities and gum disease.
2. Enhanced Aesthetics: Orthodontic treatments contribute to a confident and radiant smile, boosting self-esteem and overall well-being.
3. Optimized Functionality: Correcting malocclusion improves bite function, reducing the risk of jaw pain, headaches, and discomfort while chewing.
4. Prevention of Long-Term Issues: Addressing orthodontic concerns early on can prevent more severe dental issues in the future, saving patients from potential complications.
