Braces

Improper occlusion results in straining muscles of the jaw and joint problem. Crowded and malaligned teeth results in unpleasant appearance. Orthodontic treatment helps in correcting these problems and obtaining a esthetic smile with a balanced occlusion.

Various orthodontic problems include:

• Crowded teeth
• Overjet, when your upper teeth stick out over your lower teeth.
• Underbite, when your lower teeth stick out further than your upper teeth.
• Crooked teeth
• Overlapping teeth
• Rotated teeth.
• Impacted teeth (which are partially or fully trapped in your jawbone).

Common orthodontic treatments include braces, clear aligners followed by retainers.

• Braces
• Braces are metal or ceramic (clear) dental tools(brackets) attached to the teeth and connected by wires and bands. They gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions .
