Orthodontics (Teeth Straightening)

Orthodontics is a specialised branch of dentistry that focuses on straightening teeth and improving your smile. It helps correct crooked teeth, close gaps, and even manage habits like thumb sucking or lip biting.

Treatments can be done using braces, removable plates, or modern clear aligners - transparent trays that move your teeth gently without visible wires or brackets.

Orthodontic treatment can:

• Close spaces between teeth
• Straighten crowded or crooked teeth
• Correct teeth that are locked or misaligned in the jaw
• Enhance your smile and make cleaning easier

The treatment time usually ranges between 1 to 1.5 years, depending on your individual needs and the type of appliance used.
