Orthodontics

Orthodontics is the specialty of dentistry that is responsible for the study, prevention and treatment of tooth and jaw malposition. The goal of orthodontics is the correction of incorrectly positioned teeth and bones in order to provide a good chewing function and good facial aesthetic. Correct alignment of the teeth as well as a good coordination between both arches is fundamental for the maintenance of oral health. Otherwise, problems such as cavities, gingivitis, periodontal disease or joint problems may appear.

Orthodontic study
It is a study prior to orthodontic treatment. It is performed in all patients, both children and adults.

Functional and interceptive orthodontics
Functional orthodontics is aimed at the treatment of the bones or jaws.

Conventional orthodontics
Traditional brackets. Options include gray (metallic) or white (sapphire) colour, the rubber bands used (ligatures) need to be changed month to month.

Self-ligating orthodontics
It is the latest generation of brackets. They do not rubber bands, so it is much more hygienic and aesthetic.

Invisalign
This is the most aesthetic and innovative technique. It consists on invisible aligners that little by little, millimeter by millimeter position your teeth correctly.

Lingual orthodontics
This is a novel technique. It is highly aesthetic since the brackets are located inside, on the lingual side of the tooth.
