Orthodontics

Denthes

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that diagnoses and treats irregularities of the teeth and jaw. Braces, clear aligners (Invisalign) and other orthodontic appliances are used to ensure correct alignment of the teeth and proper bite function.

Types and Uses of Braces

There are various types of braces used in orthodontic treatment:

Metal Braces: Traditional and most commonly used braces.
Ceramic Braces: Aesthetic alternative to metal braces.
Lingual Braces: Invisible wires attached to the inner surface of the teeth.
Transparent Aligners (Invisalign): These are aligners that can be worn and removed and are almost invisible.

Orthodontic treatment with clear aligners (Invisalign)

Invisalign is a system of clear aligners used to align the teeth. These aligners are custom-made for the patient’s teeth and are replaced at regular intervals. Advantages include comfort, aesthetic appearance and easy removability.

Braces Use and Care

Braces are used for a certain period of time to ensure the correct alignment of the teeth. It is important to pay attention to oral hygiene while wearing braces. Brushing, flossing and regular dental check-ups should not be neglected.

Orthodontic Disorders and Causes

Orthodontic disorders can be caused by genetic factors, early or late tooth loss, problems in the jaw structure and bad habits (such as thumb sucking). These disorders include crooked teeth, crossbite, upper jaw advancement and lower jaw retardation.

Orthodontic Treatment Process and Duration

The orthodontic treatment process varies depending on the patient’s condition and the treatment plan. Treatment usually lasts between 1-3 years. During this period, regular check-ups and adjustments are made.

Orthodontic Treatment in Adults

Orthodontic treatment is not only for children but also for adults. Orthodontic treatment in adults is preferred for aesthetic concerns and to improve jaw and teeth function.

Orthodontic Treatment in Children

Orthodontic treatment in children starts with early examinations. Early treatment helps prevent serious orthodontic problems that may occur in the future. Generally, the first orthodontic examination is recommended for children aged 7-10 years.

Retainer Use After Orthodontic Treatment

After orthodontic treatment, a retainer is necessary for the teeth to maintain their new position. This appliance prevents the teeth from returning to their old position after treatment.

Orthodontic Treatment and Oral Hygiene

Paying attention to oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment is important to maintain tooth and gum health. When wearing braces, it can be difficult to remove plaque and food debris between the teeth. Therefore, regular cleaning of the teeth using special toothbrushes and dental floss is essential.

Orthodontics Prices

Orthodontic prices vary depending on the type and duration of treatment. Metal braces prices, ceramic brackets prices and Invisalign prices may vary. In addition, the duration of treatment and the patient’s condition are also among the factors affecting prices. For exact price information, an examination by the dentist is required. After the examination, a detailed treatment plan and price information is provided.
