Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of teeth and facial irregularities. As a result of the examination by the specialist, the most appropriate treatment is planned and applied for the patient.
Orthodontic treatment can be done at any age. However, the treatment to be performed will vary according to the age of diagnosis. The treatment of tooth arrangement is done with two methods as wired and wireless treatment.
Wire treatment is performed with metal and transparent brackets. These treatments are done with the doctor's recommendation and the patient's choice. Orthodontic treatment time varies according to the treatment planning of the person.
Wireless therapy, in other words invisalign (plaque therapy), is preferred for adult patients who do not want to wear wires. Whether this treatment can be performed or not is decided upon by an expert examination. Special transparent plates are prepared with the measurements taken from the patient. These plates are changed and used by the patient periodically. Plaques are inserted until the teeth are in ideal order. This treatment process may vary depending on the patient's pattern of using plates.
