SPECIFICATION OF THE SERVICE
Orthodontics treats problems with the positioning of teeth and jaws, affecting not only chewing, but also oral health and aesthetics. Treatment with orthodontic braces corrects these problems, requiring hygiene care and maintenance. There are several options for braces, including the DAMON system for less frequent appointments. Treatment can include tooth extractions and the use of elastics. During pregnancy, it is advisable to postpone treatment due to possible complications. After the braces have been removed, retainers are needed to maintain the results.
Traditional orthodontic braces, made up of active parts and wires, play a fundamental role in correcting the position of the teeth. Through regular adjustments, the teeth are gradually realigned to achieve a correct and functional position. This process of tooth movement is carefully monitored by the orthodontist, ensuring a smooth and effective progression throughout treatment.
Invisible orthodontics represents a modern approach to dentistry, offering a number of significant benefits for patients. As well as providing faster treatment, this technique allows for easier and more effective oral hygiene. In addition, it is a 100% aesthetic and comfortable option, providing patients with a discreet and satisfying orthodontic correction experience.
Hygienization of orthodontic appliances is crucial for successful treatment and to prevent damage to the teeth. This care is even more important for children, guaranteeing positive results.
