Orthodontics in Geneva

What is orthodontics ?

The principles of orthodontics

Orthodontics is a specialty that corrects dental misalignment in order to regain a functional and aesthetic dentition.

A field of dentistry in its own right, orthodontics is aimed at promoting dental occlusion (see page Postural Concept by correcting defects in the positioning of the bones, jaws and teeth). 

This specialty also has an important aesthetic dimension for the patient.

To achieve an improvement, the orthodontist has a whole range of more or less complex devices that exert forces in the teeth. When the force is directed towards the bone bases, it is called orthopedics.

The objectives of ORTHODONTICS: AESTHETICS AND BALANCE

While children and adolescents represented the majority of orthodontic cases, adults are becoming more aware of perfect alignment of teeth. The harmony of the smile is the primary motivation, but the alignment of the teeth has many other benefits for health and overall body balance.

A good diagnosis is essential to the effectiveness of the treatment.

A quality diagnosis by a qualified orthodontist

A qualified orthodontist will provide parents with appropriate treatments based on the age of the patient. The goal of dental clinic will initially restore the balance of bone bases and avoid extractions during a second phase of treatment, between 12 and 14 years.

I was treated two months ago at the clinic because I wanted to harmonize my smile (I had already used an orthodontic appliance without success). I wanted to say that I was very well attended, all the professionals are very efficient and explained everything to me. I had no pain, the treatment was fast and I found everything very clean! Super recommend for those who need a specialist to realize their dream. Thank you all!

Different types of orthodontic treatment in our dental clinic

vestibular orthodontics

C’est la technique de référence en orthodontie car elle est la plus fréquemment utilisée. Des brackets autoligaturants (petites plaquettes en métal ou en céramique) sont collés à la surface des dents.

Des arcs sont insérés et ligaturés dans les gorges de ces brackets. Les arcs actuels ayant des propriétés super-élastiques, ils vont progressivement retourner à leurs formes d’origine et ainsi aligner les dents les techniques dans ce type de traitement évoluent sans cesse.

Materials are becoming easier to support, more and more harmonious and discreet. Transparent ceramic brackets give a much more natural rendering.

The techniques of this type of treatment are continually developing. The materials are increasingly easy to tolerate, and increasingly harmonious and unobtrusive. Transparent ceramic brackets provide a more natural result.

We offer our young patients ceramic brackets more aesthetic than metal rings.
- at the top ceramic rings
- in low metal rings

The fasteners, of reduced size, are provided with a slide that holds the orthodontic arch without compressing it. Ceramic fasteners used for anterior teeth do not have visible metal parts or yellowing ligatures during treatment.

La spécificité – l’arc n’est pas serré; il exerce son potentiel à partir de forces légères. La forte diminution du frottement facilite le déplacement des dents qui se fait en harmonie avec la force musculaire des lèvres, des joues et de la langue.les avantages – les résultats sont plus rapides, le confort et l’hygiène sont améliorés.

Dans de nombreux cas, le système évite les extractions dentaires ou le recours à une chirurgie orthognathique.

INVISALIGN, INVISIBLE ORTHODONTICS

Invisible treatments move the teeth using transparent removable retention gutters (retainers), to be changed every two to three weeks and worn at least twenty hours a day (except during meals and brushing).

Some systems now offer day gutters and night gutters. Each gutter corresponds to a precise tooth movement.
They are custom made from specialized software that also allows visualization of the desired tooth movements. The teeth move progressively with each change of gutter.

For adolescents, this method offers a more aesthetic social life, provided he/she is conscientious enough to wear the retention gutter every day.

Benefits of Invisalign

  • This system is suitable for aesthetic corrections, both for adults and teenagers. It integrates into everyday life without any discomfort.

Procedure

  • The prints of your teeth are scanned. A model in 3D is made and gutters (between 18 and 36 copies) are then made to measure, for a treatment of a duration of 9 to 18 months, with visits of control every 4 to 6 weeks.
    This treatment is appreciated because it does not use metal. Different sets of gutters are to be worn by the patient depending on the progressive corrective movements of the dentition.
Lingual orthodontics in Geneva

Lingual orthodontics

As an alternative to conventional techniques, lingual systems can treat the majority of orthodontic problems. Totally invisible from the outside, fixed on the inner side of the teeth, on the side of the tongue, these fasteners are addressed to those who favor aesthetics for professional or private reasons.
The technological process used leads to the manufacture of fasteners perfectly adapted to the teeth. Made to measure, extremely flat, they provide a degree of comfort that requires a period of adaptation and regular brushing, and initially causes some discomfort speech. The benefits - this method is as effective as that of visible fasteners; on the other hand, it requires the practitioners of the experiment and a lot of precision during the installation.

Maxillofacial surgery in Geneva

In some cases, the use of jaw surgery should be considered. The most common cases are skeletal disharmony, traumatic dental occlusion or jaw joint dysfunction (temporomandibular). A team of specialists (orthodontist, maxillofacial surgeon, periodontist) coordinates their skills to ensure the best result. The operation is done from inside the oral cavity, without visible external signs. After a few days, the external edema disappears and no trace of the intervention remains.
Early diagnosis in young children can in many cases avoid the need for surgery.
Nevertheless, once the bones have stopped growing, as with adults, various ortho-surgical methods make it possible to treat different cases of misalignment in the jaw effectively, both from an aesthetic and functional point of view.

Duration of surgical treatment.
Pre-surgical phase: 12 to 18 months of orthodontic treatment, usually with a fixed multiple fixation device.

Orthodontists Rhône Dental Clinic
Given the heterogeneity and the difference in training between dentists practicing orthodontics (ranging from an internship for some up to plus 4 years after graduation from dentist), it is recommended to speak only to orthodontists with the title of "specialist in orthodontics" or "specialists in dentofacial orthopedics".
At Rhône Dental Clinic, our professional conscience and our quality charter involve proposing to our patients orthodontists who all have this title following a long and complete university course.
