ORTHODONTICS (PERPLEXED TOOTH TREATMENT)

It is the science that deals with the proper alignment of the perplexed teeth on the jawbone, the relationship between the lower and upper jaw and the jaw-face relationship.

Orthodontic treatment improves the quality of life of the individual as it brings teeth and jaws closer to the ideal in terms of aesthetics and function. Since perplexed teeth cannot be cleaned well, decay and gum diseases are more common and, accordingly, tooth loss is higher. For this reason, orthodontic treatment is very important for the maintenance of general oral health at any age.

Those who breathe through the mouth,
Those who have the habit of finger sucking,
In front or rear positioned jaws,
