Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with the correction of teeth that are misaligned. This can involve the use of braces, retainers, or other devices.
Types of orthodontic appliances include:
Braces: Braces are the most common type of orthodontic appliance. They are used to gradually straighten teeth over time. Braces can be traditional metal or clear aligner therapy.
Retainers: Retainers are used to hold teeth in place after braces have been removed. They can also be used to correct minor misalignments.
Headgear: Headgear is a device that is worn around the head and neck. It is used to correct severe misalignments of the teeth and jaw.
Orthodontic treatment can improve your appearance, give you back your confidence, and help you to chew and speak properly. It can also protect your remaining teeth from further damage.
