Orthodontics

An orthodontist is a specialist who diagnoses and treats malocclusion and aesthetic abnormalities related to the arrangement of the teeth.

An orthodontist is a specialist who diagnoses and treats malocclusion and aesthetic abnormalities related to the positioning of teeth. Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the correction of misaligned teeth.

The orthodontist's work helps to achieve straight and aesthetically pleasing teeth.

In their work, the orthodontist uses different types of braces to correct misalignment of the teeth and their positioning in the dental arches.

What types of braces are available in our practices?

  • Fixed metal braces,
  • fixed aesthetic appliances,
  • Cannon Ultra cameras,
  • removable instruments,
  • Orthodontic mini-implants
  • Benefit system and Orthocaps.
  • By adjusting the braces accordingly, the orthodontist aims to achieve a correct bite and an aesthetically pleasing alignment of the teeth.
The orthodontist performs a detailed analysis and diagnosis of the bite condition and carries out a range of examinations. This includes radiographs, X-rays, computer visualisations and plaster casts in order to gain a thorough understanding of the problem and develop a personalised treatment plan.

When?

Modern orthodontics has no age restrictions - treatment is possible for both children and adult patients. 

According to the recommendations of the Polish Dental Society, every child at the age of nine should be examined by an orthodontist in order to assess the development of the teeth and possibly detect a forming malocclusion.

A completed orthodontic treatment plan can significantly improve satisfaction patients. 

Patients gain the smile and confidence of their dreams. Straight, beautiful teeth not only improve appearance, but also boost self-confidence, open up new possibilities and bring joy to a beautiful smile.

Orthodontic treatment plan

The orthodontic treatment plan includes several stages that are key to achieving the desired results.
Here is a detailed description of the various stages:

The first stage is an orthodontic consultation. During this visit, the orthodontist carries out an assessment of the indications for orthodontic treatment and treatment options. He or she discusses the patient's expectations and answers questions about the treatment.
After the consultation, a full orthodontic diagnosis is carried out. Photographs are taken with a digital camera, x-rays, digital images, impressions, or an intraoral scan. These data are used by the orthodontist to accurately analyse the bite and create a treatment plan.
Based on a full orthodontic diagnosis, the orthodontist prepares a treatment plan, which he discusses in detail with the patient.
Once the treatment plan has been approved, braces are fitted at the next appointment. This may include the fitting of traditional fixed braces, Invisalign trays or other orthodontic appliances that have been chosen at the consultation and treatment plan preparation stage.
Once the braces have been fitted, regular follow-up appointments are important. The frequency of visits depends on the individual patient's situation. Usually they take place every 4-8 weeks. During these visits, the orthodontist monitors the progress of the treatment, adjusts the braces and gives advice on brace care and oral hygiene.
Once the desired results have been achieved, the orthodontist completes the treatment by placing a so-called retention to hold the teeth in place and prepares splints for the teeth to be worn at night. This ensures that the effects after orthodontic treatment last for years to come.

Benefits of correct tooth alignment:

Correctly aligned teeth are of great importance for the aesthetics of a smile. Using orthodontic treatment, unevenness, gaps between teeth and misalignment can be corrected, leading to an attractive smile and improved self-confidence.
Properly aligned teeth make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene. Smooth, well aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease and other oral problems.
Correct tooth alignment is crucial for periodontal health. Teeth that are too tightly aligned or displaced can lead to inflammation of the gums and eventually bone loss around the teeth. Orthodontic treatment allows for an even distribution of chewing forces, which helps to maintain healthy periodontium.
Misaligned teeth can lead to uneven distribution of chewing forces during eating. This can cause excessive wear on some teeth and excessive stress on the jaw joints. By correcting the alignment of teeth with orthodontic treatment, chewing forces can be evenly distributed, which benefits long-term oral health.
Misalignment of teeth can lead to excessive abrasion of the chewing surfaces. This can lead to enamel damage, tooth sensitivity and the need for endodontic treatment. By correcting the alignment of teeth with orthodontic treatment, excessive tooth wear can be minimised and teeth can be protected from damage.
Misaligned teeth can affect the function of the temporomandibular joints, which can lead to jaw problems such as joint pain, difficulty opening and closing the mouth, a

What are the indications for orthodontic treatment?

Indications for orthodontic treatment include various bite and tooth alignment problems. Here is an expanded list of indications:

This is when teeth are compressed, usually due to insufficient space in the dental arch. Orthodontic treatment can help to widen the dental arch and properly align the teeth.
Retained teeth are teeth that have not erupted spontaneously into the correct place in the dental arch. The orthodontist can use various techniques, such as surgical exposure of the retained tooth and/or braces, to correctly position the retained tooth.
Horizontal overbite means that the upper and lower teeth do not come together correctly when biting. In the case of an enlarged horizontal overbite, the upper teeth protrude too far in front of the lower teeth. Orthodontic treatment can help correct this problem.
Deep bite occurs when the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth too much when biting. This can lead to various complications such as chewing problems, excessive tooth wear and discomfort. Orthodontic treatment aims to improve the bite and achieve balance between the upper and lower teeth.
Upper incisor tipping is when the upper incisors are positioned at abnormal angles. This can cause aesthetic and functional problems. Orthodontic treatment can help to properly align these teeth.
A negative horizontal bite means that the lower teeth protrude in front of the upper teeth when biting. This can lead to chewing difficulties, excessive tooth grinding and other problems. Orthodontic treatment aims to correct this misalignment.
Anterior crossbite occurs when the upper incisal teeth overlap the back of the lower incisal teeth when biting.
After orthodontic treatment, patients experience a boost in self-confidence, which is clearly visible in their wide smiles. With a beautiful new smile, they even exude confidence, positive energy and a readiness to take on new challenges.

Once again I would like to thank Dr Jaroslaw Wichlinski, a specialist in every way, he discusses the visit, dispels fears and at the same time makes me laugh. The only one I trust, but I am afraid of the dentist like a child The doctor does an excellent job of disenchanting it (procedure performed: tooth extraction)

From the bottom of my heart, once again, this time here I would like to thank Dr Wichlinska, for giving me a beautiful smile. I would like to thank her for her commitment, full professionalism, wonderful approach to the patient and for fighting for every single detail, which made the final result surpass my wildest expectations.

Margaret Gorlice

I came here on the recommendation of friends who are already customers. I already know from experience that there is a very good, professional service here. Sometimes there are problems with free appointments, but the customer service and contact before the appointment helps to control this. It is important to make appointments in advance. The girls at reception make sure everything is taken care of. There is a car park next to the Ladybug to leave your car for the treatment.

Mariusz Krakow

I recommend the professional services of Mr and Mrs Wichlinski and the whole team. The implant "perfected" in every detail, professional approach, kindness, forbearance, accuracy, reliability and professional help I met there made me decide to permanently give my teeth to this team under such fantastic care.
