Q

what does orthodontic assessment include

A

systematic evaluation of the face and skeletal bases in 3D Position of the teeth depend to a large extent on the size, shape and relative position of the underlying bones (i.e. the maxilla and mandible)

41
Q

benefits of ortho

A

Improve function - e.g. anterior cross bite or anterior open bite can make it difficult to incise food improve appearance (aesthetics) improve dental health (make teeth more easy to clean) Reduce risk of trauma To facilitate other dental treatment - E.g. rearrange spaces in hypodontia cases prior to bridges or implants – right size for it

Q

3 key risks of ortho

A

Decalcification Relapse Root resorption

43
Q

risks of ortho

Decalcification Relapse – hence retainers Root resorption - Pain, discomfort - Soft tissue trauma - Failure to complete treatment - Loss of tooth vitality - Inhale or swallow small components - Candidal infections

not limited to adolescence 30% of our patients are adults treatment in the mixed dentition for some cases (interception) Early treatment of facial anomalies Cleft lip and palate cases may require very early treatment (just after birth)
