What is orthodontics?

Orthodontics is one of the specialties of dental medicine, which is dedicated to the prevention and correction of misplacement of teeth and jaws.
Being much more than aligning the teeth, having straight teeth is much more than an aesthetic issue, it is fundamental to oral health and has an important role in the correct functionality of the temporomandibular joint and muscles involved, often resolving headaches, neck and joints.

What are the advantages of orthodontic treatment?

What are the signs or symptoms that indicate you need orthodontic treatment?

There are several symptoms associated with this problem, among them:

Muscle tension or inadequate functioning of the masticatory system (caused by misplacement of teeth) lead to frequent headaches.

Tension over the ATM (temporo-mandibular joint), caused by misaligned teeth presses on the nerves of the ear canal, which are close to this region, leading to pain in the ear.

It is common for the lack of fit of teeth to be compensated by a head tilt, which interferes with body posture and leads to pain in the cervical spine.

Those with crooked and misaligned teeth can develop respiratory problems, as the teeth do not fit perfectly, compromising regular airflow and contributing to disorders such as snoring and sleep apnea.

With the incorrect alignment of teeth, food is chewed less efficiently, which worsens digestion and increases the possibility of gastric problems.

Misaligned teeth do not allow proper hygiene, which increases the likelihood of cavities and gum disease.

What kind of orthodontic appliances are there?

Currently there is a wide variety of fixed and removable devices, specially designed to move the teeth and the jaws themselves to the desired positions.

SELF-LIGATING DEVICE

These are the 'metallic' appliances, which dispense with the elastic colors because the mechanism of action is permanent. Their system allows for a reduction in treatment time, less discomfort and prevents dental extractions.

Surgical appliance

It is a treatment option for children with decal or mixed dentition, aiming to prepare the spaces between the teeth for the development of definitive dentition and jaw structure.

Invisible braces

If for aesthetic reasons, you do not want to use the traditional metallic device, know that you can align your smile transparently with the Orthodontic Treatment with Invisible Aligners.

What are the advantages of the Invisible Device?

The Invisible Apparatus is an orthodontic apparatus, which consists of a set of transparent and removable aligners, made to measure for each patient. The aligners are replaced every one to two weeks, and each replacement is slightly different from the previous one, in order to displace and move the teeth. It is necessary to use the aligners for most of your day (22 hours/day) to obtain the desired results. They are easily removed for eating, toothbrushing, flossing, or special occasions.

In some cases, it is faster to fix teeth than conventional fixed appliances
