Dental treatment on Chinguacousy RD

The orthodontists of the Queen Chinguacousy Dentistry recommend that everyone get a bite consultation to avoid unexpected problems in the future. 

In addition, malocclusion is a risk of dental and gum disease and some diseases of the body as a whole. Bite correction can be done at any age, but adults will need a little more time to straighten their teeth. 

Children tolerate braces easier both from a physiological point of view and from a moral point of view. Although today the popularity of braces is increasing again, and it is becoming fashionable to wear them on the teeth.

Orthodontic treatment includes diagnostics, braces, and surgical procedures as needed. The best dentist can only choose the method of treatment. 

At the same time, the preferences of the patient and his characteristics are discussed at the consultation. Then, based on taking into account all the parameters of a specific situation, the optimal type of treatment is selected.

A mandatory recommendation for everyone is the removal of wisdom teeth before installing braces. Whether teeth have erupted or not, their presence undoubtedly entails the risk of tooth decay and makes it difficult to align the dentition. 

Sometimes this requires the removal of not only wisdom teeth but others as well. In addition, crowns and bridges will need to be removed during treatment. Do not be afraid of this because each patient is unique and in each case, all the required manipulations to correct the occlusion are as organic as possible.

It is also important to understand that orthodontic treatment takes a long time. On average, it is 1.5–2 years. Therefore, all teeth must be cured before placing braces. 

In addition, when wearing braces, it is important to pay attention to oral hygiene after the treatment to maintain the aesthetically pleasing appearance of the teeth. Careless brushing of teeth can lead to stains and discoloration of the enamel.

Common methods of Orthodontics treatment on Chinguacousy RD

The main methods of Orthodontics treatment on Chinguacousy RD are divided into surgical, hardware, and combined.

If the doctor decides to use the hardware method, the patient will wear braces for a long time (1-3 years). The teeth are aligned during the wearing of orthodontic structures due to the constant mechanical pressure exerted on them by reliably fixed elements. 

At this time, the bone tissue is rebuilt - and the teeth change their position. Again, there is nothing terrible and dangerous for health in this. Bite correction is a process that is natural and painless for the body.

There are also mechanical systems for orthodontic treatment. They are often prescribed to make the dentition even, correct strong or implicit malocclusion, and correct the position of individual teeth.

The surgical method consists of changing the dental arches' position and the proportions of the jaws during the operation on the bone tissue.

Doctors often recommend a combination treatment that combines tooth extraction and subsequent braces to correct the bite. You may also need to trim the frenum of the tongue.

In addition, the arsenal of orthodontists has various types of physical therapy to improve the immunity of the jaw and the health of the teeth. However, it is the stimulation of the facial muscles, mimic and chewing, which is especially important in childhood for the correct formation of the dentition.

The mechanical methods of treatment and occlusion correction can be distinguished by braces and mouth guards (designed to correct minor defects). Braces vary in degree of impact, aesthetics, material, and method of manufacture and installation.

Types of orthodontic structures

In addition to various methods of treatment, there are several types of orthodontic appliances. They can be divided conditionally into removable and non-removable.

Braces are classified as non-removable, and this means that the patient wears them without removing them. The only exceptions are preventive visits to the dentist for cleaning teeth, during which the braces are removed. Metal, ceramic, plastic, sapphire, gold - the doctor will tell you about the benefits and purpose of various bracket systems. You should also be aware that depending on the degree of bite defect or curvature of the teeth, you can choose a certain type of design and installation of braces. So, lingual are installed on the back (inner) side of the teeth, but this method will not be effective if the symmetry of the dentition is severely disturbed.

Removable structures are divided into plates and mouth guards. They are used mainly for correcting the bite and position of children's teeth since, in childhood, correcting the bite is many times faster. 

Mouth-guards are a very popular way to deal with defects. This is because they do not need to be worn all the time and can only be used at home. But the effect of using caps will be positive only if the curvature is very slight.
