Services
Braces
Traditional metal and ceramic braces apply gentle pressure to realign teeth through bone remodeling. Treatment includes regular adjustments and personalized care plans. Our orthodontists use advanced techniques to correct bite issues and improve oral health while minimizing discomfort.
Invisalign
Custom-made, removable aligners gradually straighten teeth using 3D imaging technology. Patients receive new trays every 1-2 weeks and enjoy fewer dietary restrictions. Treatment duration typically ranges from 12-18 months with proper compliance.
Orthodontic Expanders
Fixed appliances widen the upper jaw to correct crowding in growing children. Daily activation creates gradual expansion of the mid-palatal suture before fusion occurs. This early intervention creates space for permanent teeth eruption.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Custom oral devices reposition the jaw to maintain open airways during sleep. Treatment addresses structural issues causing breathing interruptions and reduces health risks associated with untreated sleep apnea through non-invasive orthodontic solutions.
Emergency Orthodontics
Urgent care for broken wires, loose brackets, and other appliance issues causing discomfort. Our team provides immediate solutions for orthodontic emergencies while maintaining treatment progress and patient comfort through prompt professional intervention.
