Orthodontic treatment can be applied at any age, but the disorders in the jaw joint can be resolved before 12 years of age, and other orthodontic problems can be resolved with very simple procedures, if necessary, by the end of the milk teeth (between the ages of 6-7).

It lasts between 6 months and 3 years depending on tooth and jaw disorders.

No, the patient does not feel any pain during orthodontic treatment.

Nowadays, when we say dental braces, the ones that come to mind are metal brackets. They are metal devices made of high quality stainless steel that are glued on the teeth. A thin wire called arc wire passes through the braces of the brackets and this wire is attached to the brackets with elastic or wire ties. Tires, which form the basis of orthodontic treatment, are usually replaced during routine checks once a month. The metal brackets used today are smaller, comfortable and aesthetic than before. Metal brackets provide faster treatment compared to ceramic brackets due to less friction with arc wires.

These brackets are less visible because the ceramic brackets are opaque white tooth color. The treatment is completed without any aesthetic discomfort. It has high fragility, it should be used more carefully, therefore it is more suitable for adult patients. Treatment time may be a little longer with ceramic brackets since it has a little more friction.

It is one of the most preferred orthodontic treatment methods with its aesthetic appearance anxiety in recent years. Lingual orthodontic treatment is the braces method used to correct tooth distortions and position disorders. Wires and brackets are placed inside the teeth. These are the brackets that are attached to the back of the teeth and are not visible from the outside. Customized brackets are produced, so the cost is higher.

Transparent plaque treatment; It is the least obvious and the most comfortable in the teeth in transparent braces systems. Therefore, it is known as "wireless orthodontic treatment" among the public. Transparent appliances are known as invisible radio orthodontic treatment. Instead of wires and brackets, transparent corrective plates made by molding your teeth are used. In transparent plaque treatment, plaque should be used for at least 20 hours a day and should not be less than this time. Not using it regularly, plugging it out frequently may affect the transparent plaque treatment process and prolong the process. It is mandatory to put it in its box when the transparent plates are removed. Placing the plates in the box and not wrapping them on the napkin spoils the structure of the plate. Patients should change their plates every two weeks during the transparent plaque treatment process and should take care of this issue.
