Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom, nearly invisible aligners to straighten teeth without brackets or wires. Patients switch to new aligners every 1-2 weeks, gradually shifting teeth into proper alignment. Ideal for teens and adults seeking discreet orthodontic solutions, this treatment corrects crowding, gaps, and bite issues while allowing easy removal for eating and cleaning.
Braces
Metal braces effectively address severe overcrowding and misalignment through controlled tooth movement. Modern designs offer improved aesthetics with color options for brackets and bands. Non-removable, they require regular adjustments to guide teeth into optimal positions, ensuring durable and precise results for complex cases.
Phase I Treatment
Phase I treatment targets children aged 6-10 with mixed dentition, correcting issues like crossbites, underbites, and severe crowding. Early intervention prevents worsening problems, reduces future surgical needs, and guides jaw growth. This phase often involves partial braces or appliances to create space and align developing teeth.
Phase II Treatment
Phase II finalizes tooth positioning and bite correction after Phase I or in patients with all permanent teeth. Full upper and lower braces ensure each tooth aligns harmoniously with lips, cheeks, and opposing teeth. This stage focuses on achieving functional occlusion and aesthetic balance for long-term oral health.
Retainers
Retainers stabilize teeth after orthodontic treatment, preventing relapse. We offer customized removable retainers to maintain alignment as bone and tissues adapt. Proper retention ensures lasting results, with options designed for comfort and ease of use, critical for preserving your new smile long-term.
