Orthodontics

Orthodontics

The orthodontic services provided to children, teenagers and adults are executed easily and quickly with modern methods, whether it concerns a preliminary (mobile mechanisms) or a main orthodontic treatment (fixed mechanisms – braces, brackets). Fixed mechanisms have the ability to have the color of the tooth – white in cases of patients who want an aesthetic image.

 

The treatment that will be followed is determined after a detailed study of the oral and x-ray molds, and the progress of each case is reviewed with new molds and photographs at different stages of treatment until the end of it.

 

Special programs of combined surgery and orthodontic treatment are applied to patients with problems of skeletal nature with the jaw. There is also the possibility of placing orthodontic implants, which are support units used to achieve faster and more effective tooth movement.

Orthodontics without using braces

Do you want straight teeth without braces?

The narthex system (aligners) is quite effective in many cases requiring orthodontic treatment. Transparent, thin, invisible narthexes for upper and lower teeth bring new data to orthodontics. It is about computer aided orthodontic treatment. They are produced abroad, especially for your own teeth and gradually straighten your teeth. The companies that prepare the treatment and manufacture the transparent narthexes are three:

  • Invisalign
  • Clear Aligner
  • OrthoCaps

 

The certified dentist – orthodontist, according to his knowledge and experience in this method (orthodontic treatment with transparent narthexes) will suggest the ideal treatment as each of the companies mentioned above has specific capabilities of orthodontic treatment.

 

Our dental clinic is certified by all three companies mentioned above.

Procedure:

  • During your first visit, the orthodontist will suggest the most appropriate treatment for you. If the aligners are the treatment of choice, the certified physician will get upper and lower jaw marks which along with your panoramic x-ray and photos of the oral cavity will be sent to a specialist laboratory abroad.
  • In 8 – 15 days and after a special digital study we will have the final answer from the lab, that is, if your case can be treated with the aligner method
  • After agreeing with the aligners treatment plan, the certified physician proceeds to the ordering of the narthexes and within 1 to 5 weeks you receive the first narthexes. A cure for the front teeth lasts about 5 months
  • Apply aligner narthexes 18 – 20 hours per day, except when you eat or brush your teeth. Every 3-4 weeks, visit your orthodontist to monitor the progress of treatment and deliver you the next narthexes. The difference will be visible over time.

 

The aligners system is suitable for:

  1. Tooth crowding: makes it harder for oral hygiene, and there is an increased risk of tooth decay appearance and gum diseases
  2. Gaps between the teeth (sparse teeth): an aesthetic problem that may call into question the efficiency of chewing
  3. Median line correction: is an indication of incorrect bite that can lead to pain as well as other malfunctions
  4. Teeth inclined forwards or backwards: shifting other teeth and gradually causing crowding or even wrong biting
  5. Teeth with counterclockwise or clockwise rotation: makes it difficult to have good oral hygiene resulting in tooth corrosion
  6. Teeth with immersion or emergence: compromising chewing and causing corrosion to teeth “competitors”
