What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is an area of dentistry that treats irregularities of teeth and the effect this has on one’s face and bite. Through the use of braces, retainers and other appliances and orthodontic treatments you can enjoy straighter teeth, a more functional bite and a beautiful smile.
Braces are one way to get beautifully straight teeth and these days there is no need to be called ‘metal mouth’.
Orthodontics is useful for:
- Straightening teeth
- Improving your smile
- Correcting your ‘bite’, ie how your mouth closes
- Improving your speech

- Adults and children alike
