Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental and jaw anomalies. In other words, it corrects and aligns various pathologies of dentition.

Methods of prevention and treatment of dental and jaw anomalies help to solve several problems:

At what age is orthodontic treatment indicated?

Most people believe that it is possible to correct the bite only in childhood and adolescence. However, modern technologies allow effective orthodontic treatment at any age. You can get braces in Poltava at Dr. Alyoshin’s Dentistry. What should be done about this? Sign up for a consultation. In children, the treatment is faster and easier, because, with an early visit to the doctor, it is possible to track and prevent the appearance of bite anomalies. In adult patients, orthodontic treatment is also effective, but it often takes more time to consolidate the result.

A comprehensive approach

To achieve an aesthetic and functional balance, the orthodontist chooses a comprehensive approach to treatment. Before starting orthodontic treatment, the following is performed: analysis of the patient’s X-rays and diagnostic models. In some cases, consultation with a dentist, orthopedist, periodontist, or surgeon is required. Depending on the situation, after completion of orthodontic treatment, it may be necessary to restore the front teeth or gingival margin plastic to obtain an aesthetically attractive result.

Duration of orthodontic treatment

The time of active treatment is from 1 year to 2 years. But in some cases, the total treatment time may differ from the planned one.

The actual time spent on treatment will depend on:

• Age of the patient.
• Cooperation between the patient and the doctor. If the patient begins to neglect the doctor’s appointments and recommendations, the duration of treatment may increase.
• Individual characteristics.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW

Many patients believe that orthodontic treatment for bite correction ends when they take off their braces. But there is still a retention period that prevents the teeth from returning to their original position. It lasts longer than the main treatment.

To straighten the teeth painlessly and return the facial muscles to their correct position, as well as for prevention, trainers are best suited for older preschoolers. The main advantages of trainers are ease of use and painlessness. In addition, unlike other orthodontic appliances, the trainer does not need to be worn all the time. Wear them at night and for just a couple of hours during the day – and you will achieve the maximum effect. Plates for straightening teeth in Poltava, these devices are intended for the smallest, especially for those who cannot wean from a pacifier. These plates can become a lifeline for children who could not part with a pacifier for too long. You no longer need a pacifier.

Although bracket systems of this type are the oldest, they remain popular and widely used. A wide range of different options for metal bracket systems makes them attractive to both patients and doctors. The appearance of modern metal braces differs from their ancestors – they are now smaller in size and can have different shapes. The main advantage of metal bracket systems over other types is the minimal force of friction between the groove and the arch, which largely depends on the duration of the entire treatment. The main disadvantage of metal bracket systems is their high visibility on the teeth, compared to other types. Stainless steel, titanium or an alloy of nickel and titanium are used for their manufacture. In combination with coloured ligatures, metal braces acquire fun and cheerful look.

They are made of ceramics. They look very aesthetic: their colour matches the colour of the teeth, which makes them practically invisible to others.
