Adult orthodontics can be divided into the following categories according to the situation.
1, mild to moderate orthodontics:
Mild and moderate skeletal deformities can be concealed by compensatory tooth movement. Some patients can't achieve the ideal correction goal due to their own factors and diseases, so they can only carry out special treatment according to the actual situation in order to improve their appearance to the maximum extent and achieve functional occlusion. In addition, the metabolism of adults is slower, the speed of tooth movement is slower than that of teenagers, the time of orthodontic treatment should be prolonged accordingly, and it is easy to relapse after orthodontic treatment, so the maintenance after orthodontic treatment is more important.
2. Moderate and severe orthodontics:
Moderate and severe skeletal malocclusion can not achieve the ideal effect only by moving teeth, so it needs full jaw surgery. At this time, the main purpose of orthodontic treatment is to cooperate with surgery for preoperative and postoperative correction and maintenance.
3. Use the fixer:
Fixed appliance is small in size and high in efficiency, which is more suitable for adults. In recent years, transparent bioceramic brackets and lingual fixed appliances have appeared, which greatly meet the aesthetic requirements of patients, especially for adult friends with high aesthetic requirements.
4. Use equipment:
You will feel uncomfortable when you just wear the appliance, and it usually takes about a week to get used to it. The biggest problem after wearing brackets is to keep the mouth and teeth clean and hygienic.
5, beauty crown:
Through beauty crown, teeth can be arranged neatly, normal occlusion can be restored, and dental plaque and dental caries can be prevented.
