WHAT İS ORTHODONTİCS?

It is a science that foresees the diagnosis and treatment of mismatched and crooked teeth.

Orthodontic treatment not only has aesthetic concerns, but also aims to prevent gum diseases that may be encountered in the future, to prevent problems in the jaw joint, to provide chewing functionality and to eliminate this problem of individuals with speech disorders.

According to the existing orthodontic problem in the mouth, treatment methods can be determined with removable appliances, functional appliances and fixed appliances. Simple orthodontic problems that are not in advanced stages can be solved with rubber removable appliances that the patient can use by putting on and taking off.

It is of great importance that reinforcement treatments are not neglected in order to prevent the reversal of the treatments after the termination of the primary orthodontic treatments and to prevent deterioration. Different passive appliances can be used for this period.
