      Comments Off on What is orthodontics?

Orthodontics is the branch within dentistry that studies, prevents, and corrects alterations in the development of the maxillary bones and teeth. Its purpose is to achieve functional balance of all the pieces and organs that make up the oral cavity.

It can be applied both during the growth and development of teeth, as well as for subsequent corrective treatment in case of poor occlusion. For each problem there is a different type of solution, which is adapted to the needs of the patient individually.
