Services
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign treatment uses custom-fitted, removable plastic trays to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. This system employs 3D imaging technology to create precise treatment sequences. Patients receive new aligners every 1-2 weeks as teeth shift into optimal positions. The removable nature allows unrestricted eating and thorough oral hygiene maintenance throughout treatment.
Self-ligating Metal Braces
Modern self-ligating metal braces utilize advanced bracket technology that eliminates elastic ties, reducing friction and discomfort. The rhodium-plated brackets offer enhanced aesthetics while maintaining durability for complex tooth movements. This system typically requires fewer adjustments and shorter treatment durations compared to conventional metal braces.
Self-ligating Clear Braces
Ceramic self-ligating braces combine aesthetic appeal with efficient tooth movement. The translucent brackets blend with natural tooth color while the tie-less design reduces treatment time. These braces maintain stain resistance through specialized materials and eliminate the need for frequent elastic tie replacements during adjustment visits.
Laser Gum Contouring
Soft tissue laser treatment addresses gummy smiles by precisely removing excess gum tissue. This procedure enhances smile aesthetics by creating balanced gum-to-tooth proportions. The minimally invasive technique requires no sutures and promotes faster healing compared to traditional surgical methods.
Orthognathic Surgery
For severe bite discrepancies, we coordinate surgical orthodontics to reposition misaligned jaws. This comprehensive treatment combines pre-surgical orthodontics with post-operative alignment to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes for complex skeletal discrepancies.
