Services
Braces
Braces correct misaligned teeth and bite issues using brackets and wires. We offer traditional metal and clear ceramic options for kids, teens, and adults. Treatment durations vary, with regular adjustments ensuring gradual, precise alignment. Our team emphasizes oral hygiene guidance to maintain dental health during treatment.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses removable, transparent aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Custom-designed with SmartTrack material, aligners are changed weekly for accelerated results. Ideal for correcting crowding, gaps, and bite issues while allowing flexibility for eating and oral care.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses jaw development and tooth alignment in children aged 7-8. Phase 1 creates space for permanent teeth, while Phase 2 ensures final alignment. Early intervention prevents complex issues and reduces future treatment needs.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics corrects severe jaw misalignment through combined orthodontic and surgical procedures. This approach improves facial symmetry, chewing function, and speech while addressing chronic pain caused by structural imbalances.
Retainers
Retainers stabilize teeth after braces or aligners. We provide Essix (clear) and fixed retainers to maintain alignment. Patients receive instructions for cleaning and wear schedules to ensure long-term results and prevent relapse.
