Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces use high-grade stainless steel brackets and wires to straighten teeth effectively. They offer durability and precise control over tooth movement, with optional colored elastics for customization. Ideal for patients requiring significant alignment corrections, this time-tested solution remains a popular choice for both children and adults seeking reliable orthodontic results.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are removable, transparent trays that gradually reposition teeth without metal brackets. Custom-designed using digital imaging, they allow for easy eating and oral hygiene. Suitable for teens and adults, these aligners provide a discreet alternative to traditional braces while maintaining treatment efficiency and comfort.
Two-Phase Treatment
This specialized approach combines jaw development and tooth alignment for children, typically starting around age 7-8. Phase one addresses skeletal issues to create space for permanent teeth, while phase two fine-tunes alignment. It ensures lasting results by guiding facial growth and preventing future extraction needs.
Radiance Brackets
Radiance brackets are sapphire-based, nearly invisible braces that offer aesthetic appeal without compromising strength. Their smooth, stain-resistant surface reduces mouth irritation while providing efficient tooth movement. Ideal for patients seeking discreet yet effective treatment for both front and back teeth alignment.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
This specialty focuses on guiding facial growth and correcting jaw discrepancies in growing patients. Using appliances like expanders and headgear, we address skeletal imbalances alongside tooth movement. It ensures harmonious facial proportions and functional bite relationships, often eliminating the need for surgical interventions later in life.
