- What is orthodontics in dentistry?
Orthodontics in dentistry is a specialty that helps diagnose, prevent, and correct a misaligned bite, jaw, and/or teeth.
Dental irregularities are treated with dental appliances to gradually shift teeth into a better position.
There are a wide variety of orthodontic treatments depending on the problem. These include
- Braces or aligners
- Retainers
- Palatal expanders
- Jaw positioning appliances
- Space maintainers
- Lip and cheek bumpers
- And more
- What is the difference between a dentist and an orthodontist?
The difference between a dentist and an orthodontist is that an orthodontist is a specialist in orthodontic treatments.
In addition to attending dental school, an orthodontist has additional education and training for correcting the alignment of the teeth and jaws.
- What is a full orthodontic treatment?
A full orthodontic treatment includes the upper and lower arch. In this case, the top and bottom arches are both treated to achieve proper alignment and occlusion (bite).
On the other hand, a partial orthodontic treatment typically involves less work and time because the entire mouth isn’t treated.
Each orthodontic case is unique, and our expert doctor will recommend the best treatment to give you a straighter smile.
- Do orthodontists only do braces?
No, orthodontists do more than braces.
While metal braces come to mind when most people think of the word “orthodontist,” there are other procedures that orthodontists provide. These include clear aligners, retainers, and other oral appliances to help reposition the jaw and teeth.
- What is the best orthodontic treatment?
The best orthodontic treatment depends on each person. Factors to consider for your specific orthodontic treatment include the severity of the case, time, and budget.
