Interceptive Orthodontics: A Proactive ApproachInterceptive orthodontics is a preventive and corrective dental specialty focused on identifying and addressing orthodontic problems in their early stages, typically during the mixed dentition phase. By guiding jaw growth, managing space for erupting teeth, and correcting harmful oral habits, it aims to prevent severe malocclusions and reduce the need for extensive treatments later. Common techniques include space maintainers, expanders, functional appliances, and habit breakers. This approach not only improves oral function and aesthetics but also enhances a child's self-esteem. Early diagnosis, timely intervention, and advancements in technology make interceptive orthodontics a cornerstone of modern pediatric dentistry.
