Straighten Teeth, Improve Your Bite, and Protect Long-Term Oral Health
Crooked teeth are not just a cosmetic issue
Many people think orthodontics is only about getting a straighter smile. In reality, misaligned teeth and bite problems can lead to difficulty cleaning teeth, jaw pain, uneven tooth wear, and future dental complications.
Orthodontic treatment focuses on aligning teeth and jaws properly so they function comfortably and stay healthy long-term.
At Omabod Dental Clinic in Accra, our orthodontic care is designed for children, teenagers, and adults who want both a confident smile and better oral health.
What Is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of misaligned teeth and bite problems.
Orthodontic treatment helps to:
- Align crooked or crowded teeth
- Close gaps between teeth
- Correct bite issues such as overbite or underbite
- Improve chewing and speech
- Make oral hygiene easier
Proper alignment protects your teeth for the future.
Common Orthodontic Problems We Treat
Orthodontic care may be recommended if you have:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Protruding teeth
- Overbite or underbite
- Crossbite
- Jaw discomfort caused by poor alignment
These issues often worsen over time if left untreated.
Orthodontic Treatment Options We Offer
Depending on your needs, orthodontic treatment may include:
- Braces
- Clear aligners such as Invisalign
- Bite correction solutions
- Ongoing orthodontic monitoring
We assess each case carefully and recommend the most suitable option.
Orthodontics for Children and Teenagers
Early orthodontic assessment helps:
- Guide jaw development
- Prevent severe alignment problems later
- Reduce treatment time in the future
Children do not always need immediate treatment, but early evaluation is important.
Orthodontics for Adults
Adult orthodontics is becoming increasingly common. Many adults choose treatment to:
- Improve confidence
- Correct long-standing bite issues
- Prevent uneven tooth wear
- Maintain better oral hygiene
Age is not a barrier to orthodontic care.
What Happens During an Orthodontic Consultation?
Your consultation typically includes:
- Examination of teeth and bite
- Dental X-rays or scans if needed
- Discussion of treatment options
- Estimated treatment timeline
- Clear explanation of care requirements
We focus on realistic expectations and long-term results.
Is Orthodontic Treatment Painful?
Orthodontic treatment may cause mild pressure or discomfort, especially at the beginning or after adjustments. This is temporary and usually settles within a few days.
The goal is controlled, gradual movement for safe results.
