Orthodontics

It is a specialized branch entirely aimed at the diagnosis, the prevention and the treatment of dental and facial irregularities; in essence the disharmony of teeth and bone structures between the lower and upper arches.

The exercise of orthodontics requires a remarkable professional capacity in the design, application and control of the corrective devices to restore the teeth, lips and jaw in a suitable position and to obtain an excellent facial balance.

Orthodontics treatment can be performed at all ages; it is preferable, when possible, to carry out the treatment in the phases of growth as it is greater the chances of being able to create a dent-skeletal harmony that can be stable over time.

In conclusion, orthodontic treatment is the prerequisite, not avoidable, to the surgery, last resolution in the treatment of “dysgnazie” (altered jaw conformation that prevents a perfect occlusion) at the time of completed growth.
