Teeth alignment in Odessa

Tooth alignment in the dental clinic "Asteria"

Most often, but depending on the degree of occlusion defects, age, teeth alignment without surgery is carried out using removable aligners, bracket systems, and retention. The methods are determined by the orthodontist after a series of examinations. The term and program of wearing braces, aligners, etc. also determined by the doctor. Correction of the dentition, as you know, can take from several months to 2 years. It is much more difficult for adults to align their teeth or bite than for a child or teenager.

Aligner is a removable dental guard made of bioplastic or bio-silicone. It is used to correct minor defects in the dentition and to consolidate the result after wearing non-removable structures. Thanks to the gentle action of the transparent onlay, the teeth take the desired position in the row. The wearing of aligners can be prescribed for the period of sleep and stay at home, if the patient is embarrassed to wear them in a public place.

In advanced cases, the wearing of braces is prescribed. All types are available in our clinic:
