Orthodontics

More aesthetic, more functional and healthier…

Orthodontic treatment may be required in cases where the upper teeth are too far ahead of the lower teeth, the lower and upper teeth are closed, there is not enough space in the mandible and maxilla to align the teeth or the teeth are crooked. Orthodontic treatment, which can be applied in both early period and adulthood, aims to eliminate the discrepancies between the mandible and maxilla and to correct developmental disorders affecting jaws, and teeth alignment.

The aim of all orthodontic treatments is to make patients breathe easier, speak more comfortably, chew more easily and achieve a more aesthetic appearance. Accordingly, orthodontic treatments should be planned individually; factors such as age, gender and bone development should be taken into account when meeting the needs of patients.

We, as Denta Clinic, plan orthodontic treatments according to the needs of our patients who have discrepancies in jaw and teeth. We provide service with our expert staff in the fields of fixed orthodontic treatment, mobile orthodontic treatment and orthodontic treatment without invisalign (bracketless) in order to offer the most efficient results to our patients. 

When Is Orthodontic Treatment Required?

  • Orthodontic treatments may be necessary in cases where the chewing functions of patients are damaged due to the jaw or structural defects in jaw,
  • The jawbones are unnecessarily ahead or behind,
  • The jaw development is impaired,
  • The person experiences breathing problems due to discrepancies in jaw and tooth structure,
  • The jawbone is uneven as a result of traumas or operations s/he has experienced,
  • The teeth are crooked and mismatched in terms of their positions,
  • Aesthetic concerns occur due to jaw and tooth structure.

How to Perform Orthodontic Treatments?

Orthodontic treatments can be performed in different ways such as fixed, mobile and without brackets. The choice of orthodontic treatment method may vary from patient to patient.

Brackets made of various materials are placed on the teeth within the scope of fixed orthodontic treatment. The dental braces are passed through the brackets placed on the front or back of the tooth, and the treatment process is switched. The most common and well-known orthodontic treatment method is fixed orthodontic treatment.

Retainers are used instead of fixed brackets under the scope of mobile orthodontic treatment, because patients can wear and remove them on their own. For mobile orthodontic treatment, which is applied for widening of the jaw, performing simple tooth movements or practicing fixed orthodontic treatment, corrective plaques, functional devices, reinforcement and expansion devices are used.

Orthodontic treatments do not always require the use of dental braces. Invisalign, which is known as digital orthodontic treatment technology, can be performed with transparent plaques called aligner which are produced according to the teeth of the patients. This treatment allows to correct dental crowding, but there is no sign of treatment in the sense of aesthetics. 

What Are The Advantages of Orthodontic Treatments?
