Esthetic orthodontics allows teeth to move within their bony bases in an esthetic way. It is an alternative treatment to conventional orthodontics with non-esthetic brackets.
Within this type of orthodontics, there is the possibility of planning different types of esthetic treatments:
- Transparent brackets by vestibular
- Lingual braces
- Transparent splints
The benefits of esthetic orthodontics
The benefits of this type of orthodontics are mainly aesthetic, but in addition, with the development of digital technology and thanks to advanced software, we have a very precise system to move the teeth with great predictability.
Care to be taken after cosmetic orthodontic treatment
After an aesthetic orthodontic treatment, the patient should continue with a retention phase, as in any other orthodontic method. And continue with the same hygienic guidelines advised to preserve their oral health, as well as a good control of their diet.
In addition, it is very important to continue with the visits that the orthodontist advises during the retention period.
