An advanced area of dentistry is orthodontics. The Greek terms “orthos,” which means straight or correct, and “dontics,” which means teeth, can be used to decode the English word “orthodontics.” Therefore, the term “orthodontics” refers to the process of aligning crooked teeth or malocclusions. The incorrect alignment of the teeth, jaws, and face can be managed with the aid of dentists who specialize in orthodontics.
