I'm an orthodontist and has specialisation in Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics which is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting jaw discrepancies, malocclusions, and facial irregularities. By combining advanced clinical biomechanics, growth modification in developing patients, and fixed appliances, clear aligners, or surgical interventions in adults, orthodontists improve long-term dental function, periodontal health, and facial esthetics.
A tiny cavity: A simple filling which is quick, painless, and cheap. Ignoring it: If you leave it, the decay digs deeper into the tooth and hits the nerve, causing a throbbing toothache. Now you need a Root Canal Treatment (RCT) and a crown, which costs more and takes multiple visits. Waiting even longer: If the tooth rots beyond saving, it has to be pulled out. Replacing a missing tooth with an implant or bridge can cost even more .
