Orthodontics For Children

Having straight teeth plays a crucial role in children’s oral health and overall wellbeing.

Misaligned teeth, bite problems, crowded teeth, sparse teeth, jaw abnormalities, and difficulty in breathing or chewing are just some of the problems that orthodontic treatment can correct.

Teeth straightening treatments are most effective when they start early. A thorough examination by an expert kids orthodontist before the age of 7 will help prevent more serious dental problems from developing in the future.

By addressing teeth, gums, and jaw issues at an early age, your children will enjoy a healthier and more confident smile, improved oral hygiene, and better long-term dental health.

Orthodontic treatment for children is a worthwhile investment. If you are searching for a specialist orthodontist for children in Nicosia, call Smalto Dental Clinic today.

What Are The Causes Of Orthodontic Problems?

Genetics plays a significant role in orthodontic problems as misaligned teeth or jaw problems are usually inherited. In cases of hereditary problems, a child can inherit small jaws from one parent and big teeth from the other, leading to crowded teeth. Other inherited teeth problems may include more or fewer teeth than normal, facial asymmetry, and several types of clefts.

Bad habits such as thumb sucking, prolonged use of pacifiers, protruding tongue, and mouth breathing can also result in abnormal development of the jaws and teeth.

Another factor that causes orthodontic problems is the early loss of milk teeth, which results in the loss of the space needed for the growth of permanent teeth.

Injuries to the mouth or jaw and poor dental hygiene can also cause or contribute to orthodontic problems. Tooth decay or gum disease can affect the position of teeth and the health of the jawbone.

Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment

With the advances in modern orthodontics, patients can choose from various treatment options, including clear braces, metal braces, or Invisalign aligners. Orthodontic treatment is now more accessible and comfortable than ever before.

If you are looking for an alternative to traditional fixed metal braces to straighten your teeth, Invisalign might be the right choice.

Orthodontic treatment with Invisalign clear aligners is the world’s most high-tech and increasingly popular method for correcting misaligned teeth without anyone noticing!

Invisalign uses a set of thin and see-through customized aligners, which are virtually invisible. Invisalign aligners can reposition teeth gently, precisely and safely, without the need of brackets, wires or changes to your teeth cleaning routine. They are removable, so you can clean and floss your teeth thoroughly and efficiently.

You can simply take them out to eat, drink and brush your teeth!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Smalto Dental Clinic has a team of expert orthodontists who offer a range of treatments to straighten patients’ teeth. The most typical orthodontic treatment is metal braces, and the most sought-after are Invisalign® clear aligners and clear, nearly-invisible dental braces.

    Our orthodontic treatments are suitable for children (pediatric orthodontics) and adults. Each type of braces has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the best option for a patient will depend on their individual needs and preferences.

    Orthodontic treatment is an important journey in your life, so you need a trusted doctor to go on this journey together. Trust nothing but the expert dental professionals at Smalto Dental Clinic. We will be by your side all along the way!

    There is no “best” age for getting braces, as each person is unique; and the same applies to their orthodontic needs.

    In general, children should visit an orthodontist by age 7 to identify any potential issues and determine the best time for treatment.

    For many children, orthodontic treatment with braces may begin between the ages of 9 and 14, when most of the permanent teeth have erupted, and the jaws have finished growing. However, early intervention may be necessary in some cases for addressing issues such as bite problems or jaw misalignment.

    Adults can also benefit from orthodontic treatment with braces. As long as the teeth and gums are healthy, age is not a barrier to getting braces.

    Call the Smalto Dental Clinic to learn if you are a good candidate for teeth straightening with braces.

    Metal braces are a highly effective orthodontic treatment for straightening teeth and correcting bite problems. However, whether braces work faster than other orthodontic treatments depends on the individual case.

    In general, metal braces are able to exert more force on the teeth than some other types of braces, which can allow for faster and more efficient tooth movement. This is because the brackets used in metal braces are made of metal and are smaller and more efficient than brackets used in other types of braces.

    However, other factors like the complexity of the orthodontic issue, the age of the patient, and their overall dental health can also impact the speed of treatment. Additionally, newer types of braces, such as clear aligners, can also offer fast and efficient tooth movement.

    Ultimately, the best way to determine whether metal braces or invisible aligners are best for your case is to talk to one of our expert orthodontists at Smalto Dental Clinic Nicosia. We will evaluate your specific needs and goals for treatment and recommend the most appropriate and effective option.

    Teeth can begin to move shortly after metal braces are placed.

    In general, most patients will start seeing noticeable changes in their teeth within the first few weeks of treatment. However, it can take several months or even years to achieve the desired final result.

    It’s important to follow the orthodontist’s instructions carefully, including wearing any additional appliances or elastics as directed, maintaining good oral hygiene, and attending all scheduled appointments. This can help ensure that the teeth move properly and the treatment goes as planned.

    The cost of Invisalign orthodontic treatment in Cyprus may vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the orthodontic case, the length of the treatment, the number of aligners needed, and the experience and reputation of the dental provider. Generally speaking, the cost of teeth straightening treatment with Invisalign aligners in Cyprus can range from 1400€ to 4400€. It’s important to have a consultation with the orthodontists at Smalto Dental Clinic Nicosia to determine the specific cost of treatment tailored to your individual needs.

    Invisalign® aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours a day. This means you should wear them all day, except when eating or brushing your teeth. The aligners apply gentle pressure to your teeth to gradually shift them into the desired position.

    It’s important to follow the instructions provided by your orthodontist about how long to wear your Invisalign aligners each day. Typically, you will wear each set of aligners for 1-2 weeks before switching to the next set in the series. Your dentist will monitor your progress throughout the treatment and make necessary adjustments to ensure your teeth are moving as planned.

    Talk to your orthodontist if you have any concerns about wearing your aligners or are feeling discomfort. They can provide guidance on how to properly wear and care for your aligners to ensure the best possible outcome for your treatment.

    Your visit to Smalto starts with being greeted by friendly faces in a safe and welcoming environment designed to make you feel safe and relaxed. Our dentists are openly communicative and always happy to answer your questions. We are here to discuss your concerns and help you overcome your fear of dentists.

    Clear braces can be more prone to breakage or damage than traditional metal braces, as they are made of a more brittle material. While they are designed to be durable, they can break if they are subjected to excessive force or trauma. Factors that may cause clear braces to break are:

    • Eating hard or sticky foods.
    • Playing sports or engaging in other physical activities without proper protection.
    • Inadequate oral hygiene.

    It’s important to take proper care of your clear braces by following your orthodontist’s instructions and avoiding activities that could put them at risk.

    If your clear braces do break, it’s essential to contact your orthodontist as soon as possible to schedule a repair. Leaving broken braces in place can cause discomfort, delay your treatment progress, and may even cause damage to your teeth or gums.

    Clear braces may sometimes take slightly longer than traditional metal braces to straighten teeth. This is because the materials used in clear braces, such as ceramic or plastic, may not be as strong as metal. Therefore, they may not be able to exert as much force on the teeth.

    However, the length of treatment can vary depending on the individual case and the severity of the orthodontic issues. Some patients may find that their treatment with clear braces takes the same time as metal braces, while others may require a longer treatment period.
