ORTHODONTICS IS THE BRANCH OF DENTISTRY THAT IS IN CHARGE OF DIAGNOSES OF PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF DENTAL MALOCCLUSIONS.
This treatment is responsible for correcting and preventing all dental problems of misaligned teeth in early, medium, and adult stages, also in the form, position, and relation of tooth-maxillary structures.
In orthodontics, the procedure is to place extraoral, removable, or fixed intra-oral appliances (more used
brackets) with which bad occlusions or bad bites are corrected and misaligned teeth are corrected, the
treatment can last from 6 months to three years depending on the case. It is necessary to be attending to
monthly adjustments or even weekly to have the case-controlled.
Orthodontic treatments are necessary when the patient suffers from cosmetic dental problems, problems when biting food trapped between the teeth, when there is a pain in the temporomandibular joint (pain when opening or closing the mouth, as well as clicking when opening or closing) and when there is severe dental misalignment.
