FAQ

What is orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing and treating dental and facial irregularities. This includes issues such as crooked teeth, misaligned bites, overcrowded teeth and jaw problems. Orthodontic treatment involves the use of devices like braces, aligners and other appliances to correct these issues, improving both the function and appearance of the teeth and jaws.

How does orthodontics benefit me?

Orthodontics offers numerous benefits, including improved oral health, better aesthetics and enhanced functionality of your teeth. Correcting misaligned teeth can make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Properly aligned teeth and jaws can also alleviate problems like difficulty chewing, speech impediments and jaw pain. Additionally, a straighter smile can boost your self-confidence and overall quality of life.

What orthodontic treatments are available?

Several orthodontic treatments are available to address different dental issues. Common treatments include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces and Invisalign® clear aligners. Orthodontic appliances such as palatal expanders, headgear and retainers may also be used. Our orthodontist will recommend the most suitable treatment based on your specific needs, goals and the severity of your dental issues.

Who can receive orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment is suitable for people of all ages, from children and teenagers to adults. The ideal age for orthodontic evaluation is around 7, as early detection and intervention can prevent more severe problems later on. However, it is never too late to improve your smile and dental health. Many adults seek orthodontic treatment to correct long-standing issues or to enhance their appearance. Our orthodontist will assess your oral health and recommend the best treatment options for you, regardless of your age.
