Orthodontics

The branch of orthodontics works to prevent dental deformities in children and adults, to solve existing disorders, and to provide good aesthetics, speech and function.

Tooth distortions can be caused by genetics (parents, teeth and jaw structure characteristics) or environmental (finger sucking, nail biting, loss of milk teeth at an early age).

Untreated crowding can lead to chain problems such as psychological problems in adulthood, tooth and gum problems caused by not being able to brush well due to crowding, speech problems, joint problems.

How Many Types of Orthodontic Appliance Are There?
Appliances used in orthodontic treatment are of two types:

Fixed Braces

When to Start using braces?
Generally, braces in children begins when all permanent teeth replace primary teeth. However, in some cases, starting the treatment early is important in terms of preventing complications that may occur later and directing the development of the maxillofacial.

However, braces are also possible in adults, although the treatment may take a little longer as the bone density is higher in adults.

How Long Do Braces Take?
The duration of treatment depends on many factors. One of them is the severity of your orthodontic irregularity. In order for your treatment to be completed in the best possible way as soon as possible, you should heed your doctor’s warnings and not delay your control appointments.
