What is orthodontics?
Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that identifies and treats malocclusions, that is, defects in jaw bone development and related diseases. It fixes dental crowding, creating the proper space for each tooth. Correction of malocclusions prevents breathing problems, snoring, swallowing and phonation alterations.
