What's Dental Orthodontics?

Background and details

First of all I would like to make a clarification as I have noted that there is some confusion about this on the network. The term Orthodontics That means "straight teeth." Thus, the right way to refer to this specialty is Orthodontics and Orthodontics Dental.

The orthodontics It's the specialty of dentistry that's dedicated to the study, prevention, diagnosis and treatment of changes in form, place and function of the teeth and bones that support them. Orthodontics treatment is performed through apparatus applying forces to move teeth and / or influence the growth of the bone that supports them, which are the maxillary at the top and the jaw at the bottom. The Fixed orthodontics apparatus are made up of elements that stick to the teeth (bracketing, also known as "fringes") and by arcs of different alloys that exert forces on the teeth to achieve the desired movement. In traditional technologies the arches are attached to their teeth by means of rubber or metal "ligations." At present, there are also technologies for autobound (Orthodontics Damon, Orthodontics Smart Clip for example) that do not require these "ligations" that bind the arch to the bracket. Of a kind used for the production and production of products removable orthodontics are those that the patient can remove from his or her mouth by his or her own. They have their specific information but are unable to perform the same functions as regular equipment.

Retirement and production and production fixed orthodontics there are many types of techniques. In the last few years, autobound technologies have grown high within the world of orthodontics. Most technologies as well as Orthodontics Damon or Orthodontics Smart Clip They combine bracketing with passive autobound systems (the "hold" arch without ligation) with new alloys that release lighter forces for more time. At times you are technical (Orthodontics Damon, Orthodontics Smart-Clip) allow us to solve problems with coatings with orthodontics treatments without extractions or in less time than traditional techniques, although these clinical prints are still under study and cannot be stated categorically. What does seem true is that they are a powerful tool that correctly used by an orthodontics specialist can help us solve some orthodontics problems more effectively than other conventional technologies.

Without a doubt the best technological advance in the world of orthodontics has been the emergence of Invisible apparatus. Until its arrival, aesthetic orthodontics (ceramic, plastic or sapphire bracketing) was the only choice for those who wanted their apparatus to get as unnoticed as possible. Today it's possible to have a device in his teeth without being seen. Lingual orthodontics is an apparatus of fixed orthodontics that is placed on the inner face of the teeth. There are also different systems but the only fully individualised for each patient is the Orthodontics Incocito ™. The CAD / MSC technologies have been used to make pits and arches to suit each patient and achieve an invisible, efficient, comfortable and very precise device. The Orthodontics Lingual Incocito™ is still little known by the general public and even by dentists. A few orthodontics have been known to her and few have been given an opportunity to train in the linguistic technique and to get to know about the benefits that this device offers. Invisible orthodontics. At the orthopere clinic we are lucky to have an orthodoncista formed specifically by linguistic orthodontics and particularly Orthodontics Incocito ™ and currently about 30% of our patients choose Lingual orthodontics. Also there are invisible and removable devices, as Invisalign ® and other soft orthodontics. They are a good choice for simple cases but how any other type of removable device has its limitations.

At Ortoperio Clinicall these treatments are performed by Dr. Gema Olmos, Orthodontics specialist.
