Qu'est-ce que l'orthodontie?
Orthodontics is a dental specialty dedicated to correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. It uses orthodontic appliances, such as braces, clear aligners, or removable appliances, to gradually reposition teeth. Orthodontic treatments can improve not only the aesthetics of the smile, but also the functionality of the bite and overall oral health. In addition to making the smile more harmonious, orthodontics can prevent future dental problems.
Teeth alignment
Tooth alignment refers to the correct arrangement of teeth in the jaw, promoting a harmonious occlusion. Well-aligned teeth not only improve the aesthetics of the smile, but also contribute to optimal dental function, facilitating chewing and pronunciation. Orthodontic treatments, such as fixed appliances or transparent aligners, are often used to correct dental malpositions and achieve a straight and balanced smile.

Appareil fixe (broches)
Dental braces, also known as fixed braces, are devices used to correct malocclusions and align teeth. They consist of brackets that are bonded to each tooth, connected by a metal wire. The braces apply constant pressure to the teeth to gradually move them into their desired position. They are effective in treating a variety of issues, such as misaligned teeth, gaps, and bite problems. Although visible, braces provide a long-lasting solution and are often used in adolescents and adults. Ceramic or metal versions are available to suit patients' aesthetic preferences.
