 The word ORTHO stands for straight & DONTICS means
teeth
 It is the branch of dentistry that specializes in
DIAGNOSIS, PREVENTION & TREATMENT of dental and
facial irregularities
What Is Orthodontics?
Malocclusion
Deviation from accepted normal occlusion
OR
Malalignment of the teeth

What does Orthodontic deal
with?
 Adults and children both seek orthodontic treatment
for:
 Malocclusion (incorrect bite)
 Tooth alignment (crooked teeth)
 Improvement of overall appearance
Who Needs Orthodontic
Treatment?
Branches of Orthodontics
1. Preventive Orthodontics:action taken to preserve the
integrity of what appears to be a normal occlusion at a specific
time.
2. Interceptive Orthodontics:Any procedure that eliminates
or reduces the severity of malocclusion in the developing
dentition
3. Corrective Orthodontics Existing malocclusions & the need
for employing mechanics to reduce / eliminate the malocclusion
Preventive procedures
1. Caries control
2. Parent counseling/education
3. Space maintenance
4. Timely Exfoliation of deciduous teeth
5. Abnormal frenal attachments
6. Checkup for oral habits and habit breaking appliance if
necessary
7. Treatment of locked permanent first molars
8. Occlusal equilibrium if there are any
occlusal prematurities
9. Supernumeraries management
10. Management of ankylosed teeth
Interceptive orthodontics
 Space Regaining
 Space supervision
 Serial extraction
 Correction of
developing cross bite
 Control of habits
 Removal of soft tissue or bony barrier
to enable eruption of teeth
Orthodontic Appliances
Fixed Appliances
Removable appliances
Functional Appliances
 Overbite – The upper front teeth cover too much (more
than 30%) of the lower front teeth. Also called a deep
bite. This may be seen in a Class I or II malocclusion.
Examples of Malocclusion
 Overjet – causes “buckteeth”. The upper front teeth
are positioned too far forward (normal distance between
upper and lower front teeth is 1-3 mm). This is typical
in Class II maloclussion.
Examples of Malocclusion
 Reverse Bite – causes a “bulldog” appearance. The
lower front teeth are positioned in front of the upper
front teeth. This is seen in Cass III malocclusions.
Examples of Malocclusion
 Crossbite – The upper teeth should overlap the lower
teeth slightly when the jaws are closed. When this
does not occur, it is called a crossbite. May occur in
any class of malocclusion.
Examples of Malocclusion
 Open bite – open space exists between upper and
lower teeth when jaws are closed. Often caused by
thumbsucking, seen in all classes of malocclusion.
Examples of Malocclusion
 Midline shift – the center of the upper front teeth is
not aligned with the center of the lower front teeth.
Can be seen in all classes of malocclusion.
Examples of Malocclusion
 The jaws of pre-teens and teens are still growing.
Therefore, it is easier to shift teeth at this stage.
 Sometime, two separate phases of braces are necessary
for treatment.
 Phase I – when patients are 6 to 7 years old, to make room
for the permanent teeth to erupt properly
 Phase II – at age 12 (or when permanent teeth have
erupted) a second round of braces are applied to
straighten teeth and correct bite.
When is the best time for
ortho?
•It is becoming more common for adults to seek
orthodontic treatment. Their treatment may take longer
to complete.
 An incorrect bite can have long-term
effects including:
 Interference with normal growth and
development of jaws
 Difficulty swallowing
 Impaired chewing
 Speech defects
 Susceptibility to cavities and gum disease
 Poor aesthetics
Why does malocclusion
need correction?
 Dentoalveolar disproportions
 Skeletal discrepancy
 Growing Patients Growth Modification
 Adult Patients Orthognathic Surgery
Dentoalveolar Disproportions
what does that mean
 Crowding
 spacing
Treatment of Missing teeth
 Where are they?
 Impacted
 Missing
 Extracted for decay or periodontal Disease
Skeletal discrepancy
Growing Patients
 Growth Modification
 Functional Appliances
Skeletal discrepancy
Adults Patients
 Treatment for skeletal
discrepancies where
functional appliances have
failed
OR
 Patient wanting treatment
in an adult
 Combined approach with
maxillofacial surgery
Orthognathic Surgery
