Incorrect bite and uneven dentition is one of the most common dental problems. The orthodontist deals with this issue. His professional task includes clarifying the etiology, conducting preventive measures, as well as treating curved dentition and occlusion pathologies in children and adults.

In what cases it is necessary to visit the orthodontist?

"An orthodontist is a doctor who is recommended to visit an appointment not only when dental problems occur, but also for the purpose of prevention.
The optimal time for visiting a specialist is for children from 6 to 12 years old. Even if the parents do not visually notice any deviations in the development of the dentition in the child, they should know that from the age of 6 the “six” (the 6th teeth) begin to grow, on which the further correct position of the teeth depends.
At this age, a visit to the dentist should be preventive.

What is included in the tasks and goals of a specialist?

"The doctor orthodontist is involved in the prevention and treatment of the following dental problems:

  • congenital pathologies of the masticatory apparatus in children;
  • malocclusion;
  • uneven dentition;
  • deviations in the functioning of the masticatory apparatus in adults caused by traumatic injuries of the jaw, infectious diseases, age-related changes;
  • preparation of the jaw for the installation of implants and prostheses;
  • production of bracket systems for individual casts of the jaw.

An orthodontist in the dental Clinic "Sa-Nata" is engaged in the selection of bracket systems individually for each patient, which ensures the fastest effect in the correction and correction of orthodontic defects. Correction of curvature not only gives a person a beautiful smile, but also prevents the development of many diseases of the gastrointestinal tract caused by improper or defective chewing of food.

Therapeutic Techniques

"A good orthodontist uses traditional bracket systems, correcting mouth caps and special leveling plates to correct defects in the chewing apparatus. Each of the methods has its advantages and indications for use. Recently, transparent caps for leveling, which are almost invisible to others, are widely used.

But their use is possible only in the presence of slight defects. If the time for treating the incorrect position of the upper or lower jaw was missed, the problem can be solved only by prolonged wearing of traditional braces.

All systems for adjustment are prepared individually, according to the patient’s casts, from the best, hypoallergenic materials. The task of the orthodontist is to provide maximum comfort in the wear of these corrective systems.

Surgical Orthodontics

"The best orthodontists in the dental Clinic "Sa-Nata" are involved in surgical correction of occlusion in adult patients, when conservative methods cannot give a positive result.

The operation to correct the curvature of the dentition is called compactostotomy. The essence of this surgical treatment is an incision in the bone tissue of teeth requiring movement. After the surgery (after 2 weeks), the doctor individually selects the bracket system for further conservative treatment of a congenital or acquired defect.

The specialist is also engaged in preparing the patient for prosthetics, working on the bone tissue in place of the lost tooth, where a pin will be implanted for further installation of the artificial implant.
