About Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dental surgery focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. This procedure primarily involves the use of appliances like braces, clear aligners, and retainers to apply gentle, continuous pressure over time, guiding teeth into their optimal positions. Performed by a dental surgeon or orthodontist, it addresses functional issues such as bite problems (malocclusion) and aesthetic concerns, leading to improved oral health, easier cleaning, and enhanced facial harmony. Modern orthodontics offers various discreet and efficient treatment options suitable for both children and adults, making it a cornerstone of comprehensive dental care.
