Braces
Traditional and clear braces correct misaligned teeth and bite issues for improved oral health. We offer metal, clear, and self-ligating options tailored to patient needs. Treatment durations vary from 12 months to three years based on case complexity.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses removable, clear thermoplastic trays to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for teens and adults seeking aesthetic alternatives to braces. Treatment includes regular aligner changes and check-ups to ensure proper tooth movement.
Surgical Orthodontics
Corrective jaw surgery addresses skeletal discrepancies affecting bite and facial symmetry. Performed in conjunction with orthodontic treatment, it improves chewing, speech, and sleep apnea symptoms while enhancing facial aesthetics.
Comprehensive Treatment
Multi-phase orthodontic care aligns teeth and corrects bite issues in one treatment cycle. Combines braces with post-treatment retention to stabilize results. Addresses complex cases requiring full dental arch correction for lasting oral health.
Emergency Orthodontic Care
Prompt treatment for broken brackets, poking wires, or severe discomfort. Our team provides immediate solutions to alleviate pain and maintain treatment progress. Includes temporary fixes and follow-up adjustments to prevent complications.
