Braces (Fixed Appliance Treatment)
Orthodontics is a branch of science concerned with diagnosing and treating irregularities in the jaw and facial region. Orthodontic treatments are applied to prevent a possible anomaly at an early stage, and to correct anomalies that have already developed at a later stage.
Braces treatment corrects crowded, gapped or malocclusion-affected teeth using fixed or removable appliances. The duration and method of treatment are determined by the dentist according to the complexity of the case.
Who Is Braces Treatment Recommended For?
- Individuals with crowded or gapped teeth
- Those with an upper-lower jaw bite problem (biting issues)
- Children whose jaw development disorders need to be prevented early
- Adults who want to correct tooth alignment for aesthetic and functional reasons
The Treatment Process
After an intraoral examination, X-rays and taking impressions, the type of brace (metal, ceramic or clear) best suited to the patient's case is determined. Throughout treatment, the braces are adjusted at regular follow-up appointments.
Aftercare
Once braces treatment is complete, retainer appliances are used to help the teeth maintain their new position. Regular oral care is important for the permanence of the treatment result.
