Orthodontics

Orthodontics is when a special doctor, called an orthodontist, helps fix teeth that are not straight or don't fit together properly. They use different tools and techniques, like braces or clear aligners, to move teeth into the right position over time. It's like playing a game of "tooth chess" - the orthodontist moves the teeth one by one until they all fit together just right. This can take a while, but it makes your teeth look better, helps you chew food properly, and can even make it easier to breathe!
