It’s also used to correct a number of oral issues including:
- A bite that doesn’t line up properly
- Tooth decay or gum disease due to crowded or overly spaced teeth
- Jaw pain caused by crooked teeth
- Shifting teeth due to incomplete orthodontic treatment
Steps in orthodontic treatment
Orthodontic treatment is divided into three steps.
- The period between the check-up and the making and fitting of the appliance to suit each individual.
- The period during which the teeth are moved (orthodontic appliance wearing period)
- Period of time during which teeth are held in place (period of wearing retention appliances( Retainer )
1, Check-up – time period until orthodontic appliances are made and fitted.
It does not take much time from the check-up to the fitting of the custom-made mouthpiece.
After a thorough examination and detailed treatment plan, the treatment period is decided upon, and the time from the production of the mouthpiece to its fitting is approximately one to two months.
2, Duration of tooth movement.
The period during which the teeth are moved is the period during which the orthodontic appliances are fitted and the teeth are moved to the desired position.

It generally takes between one and three years, although it may take less than a year if not much movement is required.
3, Duration of tooth fixation.
The period during which the teeth are fixed is also called the retention period.
The period during which the orthodontic appliance is removed and the retainer is worn after the teeth have been moved to the desired position.
Depending on the orthodontic condition, the duration of use may vary, for example, all day long or only at bedtime.
The period of time during which the braces are in place can also be a time to be careful, as the braces may return to their original position if they are not used in accordance with the doctor’s instructions.
If you take good care of your teeth during the retention period, you will be less likely to experience post-orthodontic recession and keep your teeth looking good.
