Bite correction
Bite alignment is an important orthodontic procedure that corrects the malposition of the teeth and jaws. This procedure not only improves the aesthetics of the smile but also promotes normal chewing function, reduces the risk of developing tooth and gum diseases, and prevents problems with the jaw joint. Bite alignment may include braces, aligners, or other orthodontic appliances individually tailored to each patient.

Indications for bite alignment
- Malocclusion: The main indication for bite alignment is the correction of malocclusion shapes, such as deep, open, cross, or incomplete bites, affecting chewing function and smile aesthetics.
- Crowded teeth: The procedure is necessary to eliminate crowded teeth, which are unevenly spaced. These teeth are difficult to clean and increase the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
- Gaps between teeth: Bite alignment is also used to eliminate excessive gaps between teeth, improving both the appearance of the smile and its functionality.
- Chewing and swallowing disorders: Malocclusion can lead to chewing and swallowing problems; aligning the bite helps restore these functions' effectiveness.
- Tooth wear: Misaligned teeth can wear unevenly; Bite alignment helps distribute the load evenly on the teeth.
- Prevention of dental problems: A proper bite makes caring for your teeth and gums easier, reducing the risk of oral diseases and ensuring long-term healthy teeth and gums.
Preparing for Bite Alignment
- Consultation with an orthodontist: Discuss your goals and expectations for treatment with your orthodontist, and have a full check-up to create a personalized bite alignment plan.
- Complete Oral Exam: Includes cleaning and screening for tooth decay, gum disease, and other potential bite alignment problems.
- Maintaining excellent oral hygiene: To prevent inflammation and disease during orthodontic treatment, it is necessary to take good care of the teeth and gums.
- Removal of dental plaque: It is recommended that all dental plaque and tartar be removed before starting treatment to provide a healthy environment for teeth to move around.
- Abstaining from solid foods and chewing gum: This will help avoid damage to the orthodontic appliances and speed up the teeth alignment.
- Scheduling regular visits to the orthodontist: The schedule of visits will depend on the specific bite alignment technique and the need for correction of the equipment.
Important! When making an appointment for a bite alignment procedure, you will receive a detailed consultation from our manager. They will inform you about all aspects of preparing for treatment and provide advice on caring for your orthodontic appliances to ensure a successful and comfortable treatment.
How is the procedure performed
The process of bite alignment begins with an initial visit to the clinic, where the patient registers and prepares the necessary documents. This is followed by a consultation with an orthodontist, during which the oral cavity is examined, a treatment plan is discussed, and a suitable bite alignment method, such as braces or aligners, is chosen. This stage lasts about 20-30 minutes.
After the consultation, depending on the method chosen, it may be necessary to take dental impressions or 3D scans, which take an additional 15-30 minutes. This data is used to make individual orthodontic appliances.
The orthodontic appliance is installed at the next visit and can last 1 to 2 hours. Braces are attached to the teeth, and the patient is provided with the first set of aligners when using aligners.
Bite alignment is not a one-time procedure but a whole course of treatment that can last from several months to several years. The patient needs to visit the orthodontist regularly to monitor and adjust the orthodontic appliance, usually every 4-6 weeks.
In general, the initial visit and installation of the device will take about 2-3 hours, and the entire course of treatment requires long-term planning and regular visits to a specialist. Patients receive detailed information about all stages of treatment and the necessary recommendations for successful bite alignment.
Contraindications to the procedure
- Acute periodontitis and other serious gum diseases: Treating these conditions first before starting orthodontic treatment is necessary.
- Active carious lesions: Tooth decay should be treated before orthodontic bite correction begins.
- Poor oral hygiene: Poor hygiene can lead to the development of diseases that worsen the condition of the teeth and gums during treatment.
- Severe systemic diseases, Like diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis, can affect the healing process and bite correction.
- Treatment with immunosuppressive drugs or bisphosphonates: Medications that affect the metabolic processes in the bone tissue can make it difficult to move the teeth.
- Age restrictions: Special treatment approaches may be required for younger children or older adults with worn-out teeth and jawbones.
Important! When making an appointment for a bite alignment procedure, the EasyMed manager will inform you about all existing contraindications. This will help you choose the most appropriate and safe method of treatment.
Safety of the procedure
Bite alignment with orthodontic appliances such as braces or aligners is a common practice in dentistry. Proper treatment planning and active cooperation with the orthodontist make the procedure effective and safe.
Bite alignment is a lengthy process lasting from several months to several years, depending on the case’s complexity. It is not a repetitive procedure; once the treatment is complete, the results can last a lifetime with proper care.
- Temporary discomfort after the installation and adjustment of the equipment
- The risk of tooth decay with inadequate oral hygiene
- Possible irritation of the mucous membrane from orthodontic restorations
In rare cases, problems with the roots of the teeth or gums may occur, but with timely detection and correction, these risks are minimized.
To ensure the procedure’s safety, it is necessary to visit the orthodontist regularly to monitor and adjust the orthodontic appliances and maintain strict oral hygiene. In addition, foods that can damage orthodontic structures or make it difficult to care for teeth and gums should be avoided.
