Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for teens and adults seeking aesthetic alternatives to traditional braces, this system gradually shifts teeth into proper alignment while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines. Our practice provides customized Invisalign plans with regular progress monitoring.
TMJ Treatment
Specialized TMJ disorder treatment addresses chronic facial pain and jaw dysfunction through orthodontic interventions. We employ diagnostic imaging and customized treatment plans to correct temporomandibular joint issues, often combining appliance therapy with bite adjustments for lasting relief from headaches and jaw discomfort.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces offer efficient tooth movement with smaller, more comfortable brackets than previous generations. This proven treatment option effectively corrects complex alignment issues and bite problems across all age groups while maintaining cost-effectiveness compared to newer alternatives.
Forsus Appliances
Forsus appliances provide advanced overbite correction without requiring headgear. These fixed functional appliances guide jaw growth and tooth positioning simultaneously, reducing treatment time while improving facial symmetry and bite relationships in growing patients.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics combines pre-surgical alignment with jaw repositioning procedures to correct severe bite discrepancies. This comprehensive approach addresses functional impairments and facial imbalances that cannot be resolved through conventional orthodontic methods alone, requiring coordination with oral surgeons.
