ORTHODONTICS –
orthodontic in Cracow

The aim of orthodontic treatment is to achieve a correct bite and improve the smile aesthetics.

Orthodontic therapy is effective not only in children and adolescents, but also in adults.

Orthodontic therapy may be performed in children having deciduous (primary) teeth and mixed: primary and permanent teeth, as well as adolescents and adults who have permanent teeth.

Orthodontic therapy in adults is aimed not only in teeth aesthetics improvement (aesthetic stomatology) but is frequently a preparation for prosthetic treatment, surgery or implant treatment. Diseases of gums or periodontium do not eliminate the patient from orthodontic treatment, but such a situation requires cooperation with a periodontist. The fact is that orthodontic verlays align teeth and correct bite defects (malocclusions). They are also intended to remove their consequences, causing poor grinding of food, as well as decay, caused by inadequate cleaning of teeth, often hindered by their crowding.

Types of orthodontic brace used in SE+

Traditional metal braces or self-ligating braces, without elastic ligature. Metal brackets and wires are attached to the patient’s teeth enamel for the entire time of orthodontic therapy.

Braces with elastic brackets are also permanent, but the difference is that they are made of ceramic material in milk-white of sapphire colour – they are transparent, perfectly matching the patient’s teeth enamel. The arches are made of wires coated white and the ligatures are transparent.

Invisalign overlays use clear, plastic aligners customised for each patient’s teeth, which must be worn for 20 hours a day, and may be taken out according to the needs, e.g. to eat. It is possible to see the planned effect of the treatment before its beginning thanks to a dedicated software.

The choice of metod depends on a bite defect (malocclusion) type and the decision is made by an orthodontist during the consultation.

Invisalign braces may be easily taken out, which significantly facilitates eating or cleaning the teeth.
