Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that is focused on diagnosing and treating irregularities in the jaw and teeth. These may include issues with the bite, misalignment of the teeth, or overcrowding of the teeth.
The goal of orthodontic treatment is to improve the long-term health, function, and appearance of your smile.
