Orthodontic treatment is focused on solving the bad position of the teeth, in young and adult patients, through devices called braces and with specific techniques that only an orthodontic specialist knows.
Among its benefits is:
“La salud dental es un reflejo de la salud general.” – C. Everett Koop
Within the Orthodontic treatment, there are several types of brackets and techniques, of which at Ortho Dental Specialists we handle 4 styles of brackets:
Metallic:
These braces have been on the market for years, being a success in young people, the adjustments are made monthly, where the leagues are changed for the colors that you like the most and a wire is changed which will align the teeth, the average treatment time is from 18 to 24 months
Self-ligated:
For patients seeking speed in their orthodontic treatment, self-ligating brackets are an excellent option, reducing the time of conventional treatment to 5 to 6 months.
Advantages: less time, less friction and less plaque accumulation.
Aesthetic braces:
For patients seeking an elegant smile and discretion in their orthodontic treatment, we have Sapphire and Ceramic braces for your aesthetic needs.
Interceptive orthodontics:
It is the treatment that is responsible for the prevention of bad dental position at puberty, to prevent poor development of the maxillary bones, helps to correctly stimulate maxillary bones that are not growing well.
It is the accompaniment during childhood to assess that everything is settling in correctly (teeth, bones and facial profile).
