Dental Specialists
Our team of specialists is prepared to provide advanced treatments with modern technology and personalized care.
An orthodontic specialist is a dentist who, after completing their dental degree, completes a specialization in orthodontics (generally 2 to 3 years), focused on the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of malocclusions.
What are malocclusions?
- Crowded or spaced teeth
- Crossbite, open bite or deep bite
- Prognathism or retrognathism
- Misalignments that affect function and aesthetics
Diagnosis
- Evaluates dental and bone position
- Analyzes X-rays, photographs and digital models
- Determines whether the problem is dental, skeletal or mixed
Treatment
- Places and controls braces (metal, aesthetic, self-ligating)
- Uses orthopedic appliances in growing patients
- Provides periodic follow-up and makes adjustments during treatment
Treatment objectives
- Achieve a functional and stable bite
- Improve facial and smile aesthetics
- Facilitate better oral hygiene
- Prevent wear, joint pain and future problems
Interdisciplinary work
- Collaborates with periodontists, rehabilitators, maxillofacial surgeons and pediatric dentists
- In some cases prepares the patient for orthognathic surgery
The orthodontic specialist not only aligns teeth, but also corrects the way the jaws and teeth function together, seeking long-term health, stability and aesthetics.
