In addition, proper tooth positioning helps maintain dental health and contributes to the prevention of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems.Orthodontic Treatment Process
Orthodontic treatment is generally performed using brackets, wires, or clear aligners. The treatment process can vary depending on the individual's dental structure and needs, and can usually last from a few months to several years.

Regular check-ups and follow-up visits are important after orthodontic treatment. Also, continuing your established care routines will help maintain the success of the treatment.
