When is Orthodontic Treatment Needed?

Orthodontic treatment can be applied in the following cases:

• Dental Crowding: Irregularities caused by teeth not erupting in the correct position.
• Bite Problems: Improper alignment of the upper and lower jaws (such as open bite, crossbite, or deep bite).
• Jaw Disorders: Problems in the development of the jawbone.
• Gaps Between Teeth: Correction of excessive spacing between teeth.
• Oral and Jaw Function Problems: Issues with chewing, speaking, and swallowing.

Orthodontic Treatment Methods

Alanya Dental offers a variety of orthodontic treatment methods supported by modern technologies:

1. Fixed Orthodontic Treatment (Braces): Metal or ceramic braces are placed on the teeth to move them into the correct position. Metal braces are durable and effective, while ceramic braces may be a better choice for patients concerned about aesthetics.

2. Clear Aligners (Invisalign): Known as Invisalign, these clear, removable aligners are almost invisible and are an ideal option, especially for adults who value aesthetics.

3. Lingual Orthodontics: Braces are placed on the back surface of the teeth, making the treatment completely invisible. This method is suitable for patients with aesthetic priorities.

4. Orthognathic Surgery for Jaw Problems: Surgical interventions may be required to correct severe jawbone irregularities. This treatment is carried out in combination with orthodontic procedures.

Orthodontic Treatment Process

The orthodontic treatment process begins with a detailed examination by Dentist Duygu Gürleyen and generally includes the following steps:

1. Initial Examination and Planning:
   X-rays, photos, and measurements are taken to assess the condition of the teeth and jaw. A treatment plan is created according to the patient’s needs and expectations.
2. Treatment Application:
   Depending on the chosen method, braces are placed or clear aligners are prepared. Treatment duration usually ranges from 6 months to 2 years.
3. Regular Check-Ups:
   During treatment, regular appointments are held to monitor tooth movement and make necessary adjustments.
4. Post-Treatment:
   After completion, retainers are used to maintain the new positions of the teeth.

Advantages of Orthodontic Treatment

• More Aesthetic Smile: Proper alignment of teeth and jaw ensures a flawless smile.
• Improved Oral Hygiene: Crowded teeth are harder to clean. After orthodontic treatment, oral hygiene becomes easier.
• Functional Improvement: Chewing and speech problems are resolved.
• Better Dental Health: Properly aligned teeth reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease.
