Details of Service:

The person appointed to this post will work as part of multi-disciplinary teams delivering a coordinated approach to client care.

Orthodontics is a dental speciality that concerns itself with genetic variations and developmental aberrations in the dento-facial area. Its aim is to improve oral function, create resistance to dental disease, improve dento-facial appearance and enhance psycho-social bearing.

Patients are referred for orthodontic assessment by the Primary Dental Care Service. The orthodontic assessment is carried out by an orthodontist and eligibility for a public orthodontic treatment place is determined against a set of clinical guidelines.

The vast majority of clients have their first interaction with the Orthodontic Unit following their 6th class dental appointment, and the results of their assessment will determine their interaction with the Orthodontic Service thereafter, but the service deals mostly with children in the 12 – 18 years age group.
