Orthodontic treatment is the original smile makeover tool and you will be happy to know that you’re never too old to take advantage of it. But it isn’t all about looks: properly aligned teeth help you to bite, Chew and even speak more effectively. They are also easier to clean, which helps keep your mouth free of tooth decay and gum disease.
The amazing thing about orthodontic is that it harnesses the body’s natural ability to remodel its own tissue. With the application of light, constant force, orthodontic appliances gently reshape bone and move teeth into better positions.
Orthodontic treatment can resolve a number of bite problems, which often become evident by around age 7. These include under bite, cross bite or excessive overbite, where upper and lower teeth don’t close in the proper position; open bite, where a space remains between top and bottom teeth when the jaws are closed; and crowding or excessive spacing, where teeth are spaced too close together or too far apart.
To correct bite problems, teeth need to be moved-but doing that isn’t as hard as you might think! Teeth aren’t fixed rigidly in their supporting bone; instead, they’re held in place by a hammock-like structure called the periodontal ligament, which is very responsive to forces placed on the teeth. Orthodontic appliances move teeth by careful applicant of light, constant pressure.
Orthodontics is for children-and Adult
Having orthodontic treatment in childhood is ideal in order to take advantage of a youngsters’ natural growth processes to help move the teeth into proper alignment. This phase of growth modification can shorten overall treatment time and ensure the best result if additional orthodontic appliances are needed.
But remember, healthy teeth can be moved at any age. In fact, about one in five of today’s orthodontic patients is an adult. Before treatment, adults are carefully examined for signs of periodontal disease, which will be brought under control before treatment begins.
Types of orthodontic appliances
When you imaging someone wearing braces, you probably picture small metal brackets bonded to the front of the teeth, with a thin wire running through them, this time-tested style remains very popular
But it’s no longer the only option. Clear braces use brackets made of ceramic or plastic which, except for the slim arch wire, are hardly visible. Lingual braces are just like traditional metal braces-except they’re bonded to the back of your teeth so that no one can see them.
Removable clear aligners are an alternative to fixed orthodontic appliances. They consist of a series of clear plastic “trays” that fit over your teeth exactly; each one moves your teeth a little bit, until they are in the proper position. Whether fixed or removable, each type of appliance may have advantages or disadvantages in particular situations. After a complete examination, the best treatment options for you will be discussed.
Post Orthodontic care
Once your orthodontic treatment is completed, it’s extremely important to wear a retainer as directed.
That’s because teeth naturally tend to drift back to their original locations- which is the last thing you want after you’ve gone to the trouble of straightening them! Nearing a retainer holds your teeth in their new position long enough for new bone and ligament to re-form around them, and helps keep your gorgeous new smile looking good for a lifetime.

Periodontal therapy can take various forms, but the goal is always to restore diseased tissues to health. Gum disease can spread from the gums to the bone that supports the teeth, and may even cause tooth loss in the most severe cases.
There are very effective therapies to combat this, ranging from scaling that remove plaque and calculus from beneath the gum line, to surgical repair of lost gum and bone tissue.
Procedures
Periodontal therapy includes both surgical and non-surgical:
• Scaling and root planning
The best starting point to control gum disease, using hand scalers
and / or ultrasonic instruments.
• Gum Grafting
• Periodontal plastic surgery
Refers to any reshaping procedure that creates a more pleasing
appearance of the gum tissues.
• Periodontal laser treatment
Removing diseased gum tissue with lasers can offer significant advantages over conventional surgery, such as less discomfort and gum shrinkage.
• Crown lengthening surgery
This is a surgical procedure to make the teeth look longer and the smile less gummy for cosmetic reasons or to aid in securing a new dental crown.
Dental plaque is the main cause of periodontal disease. So it’s essential to remove it every day with effective brushing and flossing.
Of course, there are some areas of the mouth that a toothbrush and floss just can’t reach, which is why it’s so important to have regular professional cleanings at the dental office. Your regular dental exam is also a time when early signs of gum disease can be detected-before they become apparent even to you.

The American Academy of pediatric dentistry recommends that your child see a dentist by his / her first birthday.Though this may sound early, learning proper pediatric oral hygiene techniques, checking for cavities, and watching for developmental problems is extremely important.
There are a variety of dental treatments offered to prevent tooth decay in children, or to save or repair teeth when necessary they include:
• Topical fluoride
Fluoride incorporates into the enamel of teeth, making it harder and more resistant to decay.
• Dental Sealants
A plastic coating can be applied at the dental office to prevent cavities by sealing the little grooves on the chewing surface of back teeth known as “pits and fissures”.
• Root canal treatment
Baby teeth are important guides to the permanent teeth that are already forming beneath your child’s gums. Therefore, saving them from premature loss can help prevent a malocclusion (“mal” = bad, “occlusion” = bite) that requires orthodontic treatment. As mention above, sometimes children need root canals.
• Bonding
Chips and minor fractures to front teeth or decay of back teeth – common childhood occurrences – can be repaired with tooth – colored bonding materials.
Oral health is a crucial component of your overall health and well-being.
It’s important to realize that small-and readily treatable-problems in your mouth can become more complicated, painful and expensive if neglected for too long. Some of these oral health conditions may even have ramifications throughout the whole body.
The best way to keep your teeth clean and free disease, your gums pink and healthy, and your breath fresh, is a program of daily oral hygiene. Your regular routine should include the following:
• Brush and floss
You should brush at least twice a day and floss at least once daily.
• Make sure you’re getting the proper amount of fluoride.
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel. You should always use fluoride tooth paste. If more fluoride is needed, it can be applied directly to your teeth at the dental office
• Limit between-meal snacks.
Sugar snacks are the perfect fuel for decay-causing bacteria.
So give your mouth a break, and limit sugary treats to mealtime.
• Use an appropriate mouth rinse therapeutic mouth rinses do more than temporarily mask bad smells or tastes in your mouth – they can improve your overall oral hygiene.

Tobacco use greatly increases your risk of oral cancer, gum disease, and tooth decay.
