What are the scopes and limitations of orthodontic treatment?
A. The main goal of orthodontic treatment is an improved facial appearance along with the correction of tooth positions, which in turn makes teeth easier to brush and makes the jaws function better when biting or chewing. Strain on the jaw joints is reduced leading to better overall long-term health in the jaw and facial region. The degree of improvement possible in all malocclusions will depend on a number of factors, including: • Patients co-operating fully with their orthodontist and attending all appointments • How severe the orthodontic condition is. Full correction is not always possible • The age of the patient at the start of the treatment.
