The task of a dental therapist is not only to timely detect and treat problematic teeth and gums but also to inform about preventive measures and maintaining oral health to prevent the development of diseases.
An orthodontist specializes in correcting bite issues. An incorrect or pathological bite can affect both appearance (for example, facial asymmetry) and dental health (improperly distributed chewing pressure overloads certain teeth, causing them to wear down more quickly and become more susceptible to infection).
