Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics is the first speciality created in the field of dentistry. It deals with the correction of malocclusion which can either be due to irregularly placed teeth or abnormally positioned jaws. Depending on the cause of the problem and age of the patient a suitable treatment plant is formulated to bring about favorable changes in occlusion which not only improves facial aesthetics but also corrects problems related to speech, mastication, poor oral hygiene etc.
Because of the unprecedented  advancement in the field of Orthodontics in the last few decades, today a patient has a wide variety of appliances to choose from (depending on his/her budget and aesthetic concerns). Here at Smile & Braces we provide a range of treatment options to suit the patients requirements. Some of the commonly used appliances in our practice are-
1. Metallic Mini (aesthetic) Braces
2. Ceramic (tooth-colored) Braces
3. Lingual Braces (Invisible Orthodontics)
4. Self Ligating Appliance Systems (For relatively faster treatment)
5. Clear Aligner Therapy
6. Cleft Lip & Palate Care
7. Orthopedic & Functional Appliance Treatment (To regulate abnormal jaw growth in children)
With so many different options available today it is not surprising that not only adolescents but increasingly more adults are coming forward to address their orthodontic needs. In fact the last decade has seen a multi-fold increase in the number of adults seeking orthodontic treatment. After all who doesn’t want a perfect smile?
