By orthodontic treatment, to achieve aesthetic appearance, health, functional and stable dentition purposes. Aesthetic appearance, is to correct teeth neatly arranged disorder, improve your facial appearance, so you have a beautiful smile.

Health function refers to the adoption of orthodontic treatment to make your teeth and gums and other periodontal tissues to maintain health, improve your chewing function; while enhancing your self-confidence, so that your mental and stay healthy.  Stability of dentition, that is, the outcome of orthodontic treatment to maintain a living, to avoid recurrence.

Malocclusion prevalence rate is relatively high, the investigation of domestic cities as low as 29.33% prevalence rate of up to 48.87%.  If the ideal of a normal dental occlusion as a standard survey, the incidence of dentofacial deformities is 91.20%.

Therefore, the task of orthodontic very heavy.  With the standard of living and a higher level of social civilization, people have dental health care especially for the healthy development of children’s teeth more and more attention to the number and proportion of orthodontic clear upward trend.

To learn the scope of orthodontic treatment

Journal of Orthodontics Malocclusion major research what is the performance of sub-types, these are what the malocclusion causes, how diagnosed, how to more effectively correction. Dental appliance is also very complex, simply can be divided into the following areas:
a, to correct the existing uneven teeth, also known as a comprehensive correction: This is the most important tasks of orthodontics, it refers to has been found in patients with significant malocclusion deformity, in the orthodontic doctor’s guidance, choose the appropriate appliance, such as mechanical appliance or functional appliance, the teeth in the alveolar bone in the pull, push, pull, twist, move to the normal position.  Sometimes, orthodontic doctor in order to make the “face” high-impact arrangement of the front teeth to a more ideal position, the more important need for removal of dental arch teeth.  After tooth extraction there have been lack of arch gap (tooth gap) is not framed, in orthodontic doctor’s reasonable arrangement, respectively, lack of clearance in front of the back teeth occupied.  After correction of this lack of gap would not exist, the dental arch is still close to side by side, but even more beautiful and tidy, and the correct orthodontic extraction will not affect the normal oral function.  Through an integrated appliance, you can lift the crowded deformity, you can also correct the crossbite, snag between the teeth such as upper and lower disharmony.

b, to prevent teeth, jaw deformities further development, also known as preventive correction: to take all measures to prevent or block the occurrence of malocclusion the development of deformity.  For example, the mother during pregnancy, attention to nutrition, prevention of excessive radiation exposure and drug abuse.  Children Meng teeth on the periodic oral examination.  Correct pronunciation education of children, eating and so on, get rid of the bad habit of mouth.  For early loss of deciduous teeth missing gap in the maintenance and retention have more teeth extraction.  This series of preventive measures, and so a certain extent, can prevent the occurrence of malocclusion deformity.

c, with the surgical correction: some serious bone deformities, combined orthodontic and surgical treatment required to achieve good results.

d, with other oral appliance therapy.  For example some patients require false teeth, because the long-term missing teeth, missing teeth, gaps both sides of the tilt, direct denture have some difficulties in the orthodontic appliance with physicians on both sides of the teeth centralizer, we need to dentures in place more easily.  There are also poor because of occlusion caused by TMJ patients can also be aligned so that the teeth on the symptoms improved.
