A common correction method is braces, which use the force of orthodontic appliances to adjust tooth positions, gradually restoring them to normal alignment. Braces can be categorized as fixed or removable. In addition to traditional braces, other correction methods include invisible aligners and bracket-based correction. Invisible aligners achieve tooth correction through clear, transparent trays, while bracket-based correction uses metal brackets and wires to adjust tooth positions and is suitable for severe overjet cases. Other treatment approaches, such as tooth reshaping or tooth transplantation, may also be combined as needed.
