Orthodontics.

Orthodontics is the dental specialty that moves teeth into better alignment and corrects how the upper and lower teeth meet. It uses clear aligners or braces to apply gentle, controlled pressure over time. The result is a straighter smile and a bite that works more evenly.

It starts with a free consultation at a Salora clinic in Israel, with an exam, a 3D scan, photos and a written plan and price. Your tooth movement is then planned digitally, and you see a 3D preview of the result before you start. In Tbilisi, your aligners or braces are fitted, and progress is checked at your Salora clinic in Israel.

Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, which lowers the risk of decay and gum problems. Correcting the bite can reduce uneven wear and strain on teeth and jaw. Many adults also feel more confident smiling and speaking.

Most adult treatments take between 6 and 18 months, depending on how far the teeth need to move. Light cases can be shorter and complex bite corrections longer. Your 3D plan gives you an estimated timeline before you commit. [CONFIRM]

Usually one trip is needed to start treatment and fit your aligners or braces. Further trips may be needed for complex cases or braces adjustments. Your written plan sets out exactly how many trips your treatment needs. [CONFIRM]

Your nearest Salora clinic in Israel. You visit for regular check-ups, usually every few weeks, where the dentist checks that your teeth are moving as planned and hands over your next aligner sets. If anything needs adjusting, it is coordinated with the orthodontic team at Blits Dental.

Clear aligners suit most adults with crowding, gaps or mild to moderate bite problems, and they come out for eating and brushing. Braces can be better for complex movements or when wearing aligners consistently would be difficult. Your dentist recommends the option that fits your teeth and lifestyle.

Clear aligners are thin and transparent, so most people will not notice them in everyday conversation. Small tooth-coloured attachments may be placed on some teeth to help them move, and these are hard to see. You can also remove aligners for important moments, as long as you wear them for the recommended hours each day.

Orthodontic treatment is not usually painful. Most people feel pressure or mild soreness for a day or two after starting a new aligner set or a braces adjustment. This is a sign the teeth are moving and usually settles with standard pain relief.

There is no upper age limit. Teeth can be moved at any age as long as the gums and supporting bone are healthy. Many Salora orthodontic patients are adults in their thirties, forties and beyond.

Teeth naturally tend to drift back, so you wear retainers to keep your result stable. These may be a thin wire bonded behind the teeth, a removable clear retainer, or both. Your Salora clinic in Israel checks your retainers at routine visits.

Orthodontic treatment through Salora usually costs less than the same treatment at a private clinic in Israel, even with travel included. The difference depends on the type of treatment and how complex your case is. You receive a written, itemised price at your free consultation, before you commit. [CONFIRM]
