Orthodontics

Contrary to popular belief, orthodontic treatments are not just for enhancing your smile, though that’s a great benefit. Orthodontics plays a crucial role in improving overall oral health by correcting misalignments and ensuring your teeth function as they should.

An orthodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities. They help straighten teeth, fix bite issues, and align jaws. Misaligned teeth are not just a cosmetic concern but can lead to discomfort, difficulty chewing, and increased wear and tear on your teeth. They’re also harder to clean, which raises the risk of cavities and gum disease.

At Dental Hub, our orthodontic specialists are here to assess your dental needs and offer tailored treatments, whether it’s traditional braces, clear aligners, or other advanced solutions. We’ll make sure your teeth are in perfect harmony, ensuring both function and beauty.

Yes, adults can absolutely benefit from orthodontic treatment. In fact, more adults are seeking orthodontics now than ever before. There are many discreet options, such as clear aligners or ceramic braces, specifically designed with adult patients in mind.

Typically, patients visit the orthodontist every 4 to 6 weeks for adjustments and progress checks. However, the frequency may vary depending on your treatment plan and specific needs.

While wearing braces, it’s best to avoid hard, sticky, and chewy foods that can damage the braces. Foods like popcorn, gum, and crunchy vegetables should be avoided, while soft foods like pasta, yogurt, and cooked vegetables are easier to manage.

Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential during orthodontic treatment. Brushing after every meal, using a floss threader or water flosser, and avoiding sugary snacks can help prevent plaque buildup and tooth decay around the braces or aligners.
