What do we do?
Correction of Front Teeth Gap
A gap between the teeth (esp front teeth) is one of the most common problems affecting a person’s smile. This gap occurs mainly due to 3 reason –
- Disproportionate jaw growth
- Persistent childhood habits (eg -Thumb Sucking)
- Gum infection (Pyorrhea)
Advanced imaging techniques, the examination of teeth, and gums help our team of orthodontists and periodontists diagnosis the cause of the problem. Treatment is composed of the placement of dental braces to reposition the tooth back in its position while closely monitoring the gum health.
Overlapping Teeth
There is a close relationship between the size of the jaw and the number of teeth that it can fit in. Any disbalance/discrepancy between the two measurements can lead to either overlapping of teeth or gap between the teeth. Overlapping between teeth can also occur because other issues such as –
- Breathing through your mouth
- Reverse swallowing
- Tonge thrusting
- Facial
Here at the Realtooth, our specialist orthodontists use the advanced imaging technique to analyses the jaw bone and form a tailor-made treatment plan to ensure maximum effect of treatment in a shortest time interval.
Abnormal bite
Your smile and teeth alignment may have affects far more than just your looks.
Signs to look for –
Do you get headaches? C
Do you feel a clicking sound in the jaw joints below your ears while opening and closing your mouth?
Do you grind your teeth?
If your answer is “YES” to any of the above questions, you may have an “Abnormal Bite”. An abnormal bite occurs when the lower and upper teeth don’t align, leading to a loss of balance between the upper and lower jawbones and muscles.
How can we help?
A combination of braces therapy, orthodontic appliances and occlusal evaluation to align the tooth bite, helps in the balancing of the jaw bone and thus subsiding of related symptoms of jaw joint pain, muscles pain and grinding teeth.

Answer – The amount of time spent in braces will vary depending on the individual patient, because every smile responds differently to treatment.
Treatment may take anywhere between six months to thirty month (Average time of therapy is twenty tw months)

Answer – This is probably the most often asked question by anyone who is
planning to undergo any dental treatment. The answer is NO!! BRACES DON’T
HURT.
Braces are NONINVASIVE treatment techniques and placement of braces is a painless procedure. You may feel MILD PRESSURE and SITUATIONAL AWARENESS for a couple of days as your teeth, gums, cheeks, and mouth get used to your new braces.
Question – What’s the Best Age to Visit the Orthodontist?
Answer – Whether you’re considering treatment for yourself or for a child, any time is a good time to visit the orthodontist.
Questions – Can I Still Have Braces If I Have Missing Teeth?
Answer – Yes. When a tooth is missing, adjacent teeth will move into the empty space created by the missing teeth. This may affect the functional, aesthetic, or gum health of the surrounding teeth. Orthodontic treatment will correct and prevent these problems and will provide the proper alignment for your dentist to replace the missing teeth.
