What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics (Greek ‘orthos’ meaning ‘direct’ and Latin ‘Dens’, ‘dentis’ meaning ‘tooth’) literally translated as "straight teeth" is a branch of dentistry, which deals with correcting misplaced teeth, correction of malocclusion. Up to 90% of people have this anomaly. According to some estimates, up to 40% of cases need special orthodontic care.

Disease occlusion aggravates gum disease, provokes the development of dental caries because of the inability of adequate hygiene, leads to rapid abrasion of teeth difficult, sometimes impossible to prosthetics. But the most dangerous is that it can lead to the development of functional disorders of the temporomandibular joint which is the most complicated joint in the human body.

All this can be prevented with rapidly evolving opportunities of orthodontics. Our dentistry offers safe and effective technologies that can correct occlusion at any age. Newest development in this area is self-ligating braces system ‘Damon’ which has been successfully used in many dental clinics around the world.

In the system ‘Damon’ the arc is not tied to the brackets. The last are closed by lids and hold arc by themselves. For holding the brackets wires and rubbers that can be easily broken or torn are not used. It relieves you of frequent visits to orthodontist for repairing. This bracket system allows treatment without removing the "hopeless" teeth from the point of view the traditional method of treatment in cases with a large place deficit. It helps to improve proportions of a face and aesthetics of a smile.

There exist several varieties of bracket systems ‘Damon’: metal (braces Damon 3 MX, Damon Q) and aesthetic (brackets Damon 3).

Self-ligating braces Damon allow:

• more precise control of tooth movement;
• reduce duration of treatment at least on 25%;
• reduce the number of visits to orthodontist;
• improve the oral health.

Our method is able to turn back the aging process of adult patients with narrow jaws. It creates support for the so-called mid-face, and it makes you look younger. As a result you have natural look and a wide bright smile!
