Ortho Perio Relationship

The relationship between orthodontics (braces) and periodontics (gum health) is crucial in achieving optimal dental outcomes. Orthodontic treatment can impact the health of the gums, and vice versa. Proper alignment of teeth through orthodontics can improve gum health by facilitating better oral hygiene and reducing areas where bacteria can accumulate. Conversely, gum disease or poor periodontal health can affect the success and stability of orthodontic treatment. Collaboration between orthodontists and periodontists ensures comprehensive care and better long-term results for patients.
