What does the treatment involve?
Orthopaedic orthodontic treatment is very much tailored to your individual needs, taking into account your clinical situation and preferences for treatment. To begin, we carry out a comprehensive assessment, examining your teeth, jaws and overall facial structure. We use advanced dental technology for accuracy in diagnosis and planning.
For our younger patients, we often focus on early intervention. Treatment for children frequently starts with special removable or fixed appliances. These are designed to gently guide jaw growth and development, helping to expand the dental arches, correct any jaw imbalances, and create more room for permanent teeth to come through properly.
The principles of orthopaedic orthodontics can also be applied to older children and adults. In these cases, we may use fixed or removable appliances to encourage subtle changes in jaw position and create a better foundation for your teeth.
Once your underlying issues have been addressed, we can use fixed braces or clear aligners to align your teeth and help you achieve a beautiful straight smile. Following this, we give you a retainer to help you maintain your results.
