Braces & Orthodontic Treatment

Improve Alignment, Bite and Smile Balance

Braces are one of the most effective and established treatments for correcting misaligned teeth and bite problems. At Smile Code Dental Care, orthodontic treatment is planned to improve both the appearance and function of your teeth while supporting better long-term oral health.

Crooked or crowded teeth can sometimes make brushing and flossing difficult, increasing the risk of plaque accumulation and gum problems. Orthodontic treatment helps reposition teeth gradually, creating better alignment and a more balanced smile.

When Are Braces Recommended?

Braces may be advised for patients with concerns such as:

  • Crooked teeth
  • Crowded teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Protruding teeth
  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Irregular tooth positioning

The appropriate orthodontic option depends on the severity of the alignment problem, age, oral health, and individual treatment requirements.

Types of Braces

Depending on clinical needs, orthodontic care may include:

  • Traditional metal braces
  • Ceramic braces
  • Other customised orthodontic solutions

Each system works by applying controlled pressure to gradually move teeth into their planned positions.

Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment

Braces can provide benefits beyond improving the appearance of your smile. Proper alignment may also make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene and improve overall bite function.

Benefits may include:

  • Straighter teeth
  • Improved bite alignment
  • Better smile aesthetics
  • Improved ability to clean between teeth
  • Reduced risk of uneven tooth wear
  • Long-term improvement in dental function

What Happens During Treatment?

Orthodontic treatment begins with a detailed assessment of your teeth and bite. A customised treatment plan is created, and braces are placed according to the correction required.

Regular follow-up visits allow adjustments to be made so the teeth continue moving gradually and safely. Maintaining good oral hygiene during treatment is particularly important.
