Orthodontics
Misaligned teeth, bite irregularities, and jaw deformities affect not only the beauty of your smile but also your overall oral health. These issues can make proper hygiene difficult and hinder the natural mechanics of your jaw, increasing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and premature tooth wear. Orthodontic treatment aims to straighten teeth and correct these deformities, ultimately ensuring a beautiful smile and a fully functioning jaw system. We offer modern orthodontic solutions with highly individualized treatment plans. Every patient receives a comprehensive consultation and detailed diagnostics to ensure stable, long-term results.
Removable Orthodontic Plates
Used primarily for early-stage dental correction in children and adolescents to guide proper tooth alignment and jaw development. The appliance can be removed for eating and oral hygiene routines. Each plate is custom-made from the patient's dental impressions.
Self-Ligating Metal Braces
An advanced orthodontic system that does not require traditional elastic ligatures. It utilizes a specialized sliding mechanism that allows for freer, more comfortable, and highly controlled tooth movement. This highly efficient system often reduces overall treatment time.
Sapphire Ligature Braces
An aesthetically refined orthodontic system made from clear, crystalline sapphire. Their transparency blends seamlessly with the natural tone of the teeth, making them virtually invisible — a highly popular choice for image-conscious patients.
Metal Ligature Braces
One of the most reliable, traditional, and effective methods for straightening teeth. Consisting of metal brackets and ligatures, this highly durable system is exceptionally effective for treating complex orthodontic cases.
Braces Removal
Braces are removed safely and painlessly using specialized instruments. Afterward, the tooth surfaces are polished to eliminate any adhesive residue. When necessary, patients are provided with a retainer to permanently maintain their new smile.
Orthodontic Plate with a Three-Way Screw
Utilized for complex bite corrections. The specialized mechanism allows simultaneous structural expansion and pressure in multiple directions. The appliance is periodically adjusted by our specialists.
Aligner Treatment
Clear, removable orthodontic trays that provide gradual, precise tooth movement. Because they are practically invisible and can be removed for eating and brushing, aligners are a highly comfortable and popular choice among adult patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does orthodontics treat?
Orthodontics covers the correction of misaligned teeth, occlusion (bite) disorders and certain jaw deformities. The goal of treatment is to improve both the aesthetics of the smile and the function of the dentofacial system.
At what age can orthodontic treatment begin?
Orthodontic treatment is possible in childhood and adolescence as well as in adulthood. The specific method is selected according to the patient’s age and the condition of the teeth and jaws.
What is the difference between braces and aligners?
Braces are orthodontic systems fixed to the teeth, while aligners are transparent, removable trays. Both methods are used for the gradual alignment of teeth, though the appropriate option should be selected individually.
What types of braces does Primero offer?
The clinic offers treatment with metal self-ligating, metal ligature and sapphire braces. The choice of a specific system depends on the patient’s needs and on the treatment plan.
Is orthodontic treatment with braces possible in adulthood?
Yes. Orthodontic treatment is possible in adulthood if the condition of the oral cavity and teeth allows it. A full diagnostic assessment is required before treatment begins.
How long does orthodontic treatment last?
The duration of treatment is individual and depends on the complexity of the bite problem, the chosen appliance and the patient’s individual condition. The exact timeframe is determined after diagnostics.
