Treatment of Children’s Teeth Misalignment Without Braces

Orthodontics is one of the most efficient and high-quality techniques for achieving the desired results, especially in cases of teeth misalignment. However, there are some cases where braces are not suitable, necessitating an alternative. The alternative methods to orthodontics that can resolve teeth misalignment include:

  • Jaw Surgeries: Jaw surgeries are known for delivering the desired results in a shorter time frame compared to orthodontic braces and target cases suffering from speech or chewing defects.

Surgeries are divided into two types: minor surgeries, where adjustments are made to the teeth in the gums and bones to their correct position, and major surgeries, which involve rebuilding and changing the shape of the teeth and bones. Major surgeries are beneficial in cases suffering from an inability to eat and speak properly.

  • Dental Veneers: Dental veneers are used in mild cases of teeth misalignment, where the dentist reduces the size of the teeth and changes their shape, fixing crowns made of veneer, ceramic, zirconium, or many others. High-quality, comfortable fixed and removable teeth await you at The Dental Center to achieve the smile you deserve.
