Services
Dental Braces
Dental braces correct misaligned teeth and bite issues using brackets, wires, and elastics. We offer metal, ceramic, and self-ligating options tailored to age and lifestyle. Treatment durations vary, with regular adjustments ensuring gradual, lasting results for improved oral health and confidence.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for adults and teens, treatment involves switching aligners every 1-2 weeks. Benefits include easier oral hygiene and no dietary restrictions. Average treatment lasts 12-18 months with 20+ hours daily wear.
Retainers
Retainers maintain teeth alignment post-braces. We provide removable and fixed options, customized to fit your mouth. Proper use prevents relapse. Patients receive instructions for wear duration and care to ensure long-term stability of their corrected smile.
Palatal Expander
Palatal expanders widen the upper jaw in children, creating space for proper tooth alignment. Treatment occurs before growth spurts for optimal effectiveness. The device gradually adjusts jaw width, reducing the need for future complex orthodontic interventions and improving overall bite function.
Jaw Deformities
We treat jaw deformities using braces, elastics, and orthognathic surgery when necessary. Conditions like overbites and underbites are corrected to improve chewing, speech, and facial symmetry. Comprehensive plans address both functional and aesthetic concerns for lasting oral health.
