First
Improved oral and general health: Orthodontics not only corrects aesthetic problems, but can also improve dental function, such as bite and tooth alignment. This can prevent future dental problems, such as uneven tooth wear and jaw problems, which can affect general health.
Second
Positive impact on self-esteem: An aligned smile can have a big impact on self-esteem and personal confidence. Orthodontics can help improve the appearance of the smile, which can positively influence a person's social and professional life.
Third
Professional Development and Career Opportunities: Orthodontics is a specialisation in dentistry that offers diverse career opportunities. Studying and practising orthodontics can open doors to private practice, work in specialised clinics, teaching and research, as well as allowing you to take part in technological advances and innovations in the field.
