Orthodontics

An orthodontic appliance is a temporary part of your smile that shows you are striving for more, better, and prettier. All you need to do is visit Barjaktarević Clinic for an orthodontic check-up, and together, we will choose the right therapy. Regardless of the cause of the problem—whether genetic, due to trauma, bad childhood habits (such as thumb sucking), prematurely lost baby teeth, or missing teeth in the dental arch—there is a solution for every problem!

After straightening your teeth, prosthetics is often necessary to achieve the perfect look and functionality.

Removable orthodontic appliances are most commonly used for children aged 6 to 12. If misalignment of the teeth is noticed at an early age, usually around 6-7 years when permanent teeth start to grow, it is the right time to visit the dentist. Although therapy may not be immediately necessary, the examination can predict the best time to start treatment. Timely orthodontic therapy can shorten the time of wearing the appliance and achieve better results.

For teeth straightening in both adults and children, fixed orthodontic appliances provide excellent results. The appliances can be placed on the inside of the teeth—lingually on the lower jaw or palatally on the upper jaw. Nowadays, there are various treatment options, including functional appliances, active aligners, and fixed braces, which are tailored to the needs of each patient, taking into account indications, age, and patient preferences.

Whether you’re a child or an adult, orthodontic therapy is available and effective for all ages. With well-assessed, precisely planned, and guided therapy, along with the appropriate orthodontic appliance, you can achieve significant improvement in the function and aesthetics of your teeth. Your journey to a better smile begins at Barjaktarević Clinic!
