Orthodontics

San José, Santa Ana

Orthodontics is the part of dentistry that specializes in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental, skeletal, and facial malocclusions.

Malocclusion is the incorrect alignment of the teeth and maxillaries; example of this is the presence of dental crowding, crooked teeth, spaces between teeth, absence of permanent teeth, bruxism problems or tooth grinding, crossed or inverted bites, among others.

These alterations can be either hereditary or acquired by habits such as thumb sucking, accidents, premature loss of temporal teeth or other causes. If not treated, they can result in cavities, loss of support structures, chewing problems and other more serious effects in the future.
