Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws to improve oral function, aesthetics, and overall oral health. Dr. Minakshi provides comprehensive orthodontic services, including traditional braces, clear aligner therapy, and other innovative orthodontic treatments tailored to each patient's unique needs.

Misaligned teeth, also known as malocclusions, can contribute to various dental issues, including difficulty chewing, speech problems, and increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Orthodontic treatment aims to straighten teeth, correct bite alignment, and create a harmonious balance between the teeth, jaw, and facial structures.

During an orthodontic consultation, Dr. Minakshi evaluates the patient's oral health, jaw alignment, and facial aesthetics to determine the most appropriate treatment plan. She discusses the available orthodontic options, including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and clear aligner systems such as Invisalign®️.

Traditional braces consist of metal brackets and wires that are bonded to the teeth and adjusted periodically to gradually move the teeth into their proper positions. Ceramic braces offer a more discreet alternative, with tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend seamlessly with the natural tooth color.

Clear aligner therapy, such as Invisalign®, involves wearing a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners that gradually shift the teeth into alignment. These aligners are removable for eating, brushing, and flossing, offering convenience and flexibility during treatment.

Orthodontic treatment with Dr. Minakshi typically begins with a thorough examination and digital imaging to create a personalized treatment plan. Throughout the treatment process, Dr. Minakshi monitors the progress of tooth movement and makes any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results.

Orthodontic treatment not only improves the appearance of the smile but also promotes better oral health and overall well-being. Straighter teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental problems in the long term.
