Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of malpositioned teeth and jaws. Malocclusion is not a disease, it is just the difference in the position of teeth. But, it may affect the shape of the face and the appearance of the teeth. This results in embarrassment, lack of self-confidence, and even depression. The spacing of teeth, crowding of teeth, teeth coming in front are the most common problems faced. The main reasons for such a problem are habits, malnutrition, trauma, diseases, etc. So the early the patient comes, the less difficult is the treatment and time and money can be saved. There are basically two times of treatment. Either removable or fixed ortho treatment. The type of treatment depends on the condition. Visiting your dentist at the earliest and planning out the treatment is very important. Following the instructions before and after treatment will give you back a beautiful smile.
