Orthodontics is the field of dentistry that ensures the proper alignment and harmony of the teeth and jawbones.
Through orthodontic treatment, skeletal irregularities in the jaw and misaligned or crowded teeth can be corrected at an early stage, providing patients with healthier chewing function and a more aesthetic appearance.
Orthodontic treatment can be applied at any age; however, in younger patients, treatment is generally planned after the transition from primary (baby) teeth to permanent teeth. The duration and method of treatment vary for each individual, but on average, an active treatment process may last about 1–2 years. Depending on the case, this period may be shorter or longer.
When orthodontic treatment is applied for dental crowding, the method is determined according to the structure of the teeth and the jawbone. Once the necessary treatments are completed, patients can both smile more confidently and achieve a healthier, more aesthetic dental structure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Regular Dental Cleanings Necessary?
The European languages are members of the same family. Their separate existence is a myth. For science, music, sport, etc, Europe uses the same vocabulary. The languages only differ in their grammar, their pronunciation and their most common words. Everyone realizes why a new common language would be desirable.
Do I Need to See a Dentist Even If My Teeth Feel Fine?
The new common language will be more simple and regular than the existing European languages. It will be as simple as Occidental; in fact, it will be Occidental. To an English person, it will seem like simplified English, as a skeptical Cambridge friend of mine told me what Occidental is. The European languages are members.
