Orthodontic treatments come in different forms and applications, each fashioned for a precise purpose<\/span>. <\/span>In the following paragraphs, we will detail the different orthodontic treatments offered in Turkey, and their functions<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Fixed Braces<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Fixed braces are little square brackets placed upon the teeth with a wire running through them<\/span>. <\/span>This appliance <\/span>is aimed<\/span> at straightening your teeth through pressure from the wire to the brackets<\/span>. <\/span>They are \u201cfixed\u201d because patients can’t take them off themselves, they’ll need dentists’ <\/span>assistance<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

It takes approximately 18-24 weeks to see final results with fixed braces. <\/span>During this period, the patient will <\/span>constantly<\/span> keep them on, and contact the dentist if it loosens or breaks<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Movable Braces<\/b><\/span><\/p>

For minor misalignment cases, movable braces are an excellent treatment choice. These braces come in the form of plastic trays which can <\/span>be snapped<\/span> on and off the teeth. <\/span>The said trays come in different pressure densities for each treatment step till final results <\/span>are seen<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Made of stainless steel and acrylic, these braces make use of disintegrated stainless steel springs<\/span>. <\/span>These springs when moving back to their original positions, pull your teeth into alignment<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Treatment with removable braces <\/span>is estimated<\/span> between 12-18 months, after which you should\u2019ve reached expected results<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Functional Appliances<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Functional braces or appliances are devices which help reduce front teeth protrusion and overbite<\/span>. <\/span>They achieve this by adapting themselves to jaw muscles and encouraging them to grow together<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Orthodontic Headgear<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Popularly<\/span> used in pediatric dentistry, headgears <\/span>are worn<\/span> partly in and out of the mouth. <\/span>This design <\/span>is aimed<\/span> at correcting and controlling dental and facial evolution and growth<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Braces Options<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Dental Braces<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Braces make use of bracket-shaped squares linked by a wire to align your teeth through pressure applied<\/span>. <\/span>Depending on the state of your teeth, you might have to go either with traditional, lingual or porcelain bracket braces<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Invisalign\/ Clear Aligners<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Clear aligners are great alternatives to braces when it comes to teeth alignment. With this method, patients <\/span>are given<\/span> a set of trays to snap onto their teeth. These trays will take about a week or two to shift the teeth, then will <\/span>be swapped<\/span> for another one. The tray swapping will go on till your teeth finally reach the desired alignment.<\/span><\/p>

Retainers<\/b><\/span><\/p>

After straightening your teeth, you’ll want to make sure they stay right there. Retainers <\/span>are meant<\/span> \u00e0 <\/span>be worn<\/span> after final results, to help maintain the latter. <\/span>They could either <\/span>be fixed<\/span> or removable, but their aim remains preventing teeth from shifting<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
