Traditional Metal Braces
Modern metal braces use high-quality stainless steel or titanium materials to gradually align teeth through controlled pressure. Regular adjustments with archwires and elastic bands help correct misalignments while maintaining comfort. This cost-effective solution remains the most common orthodontic treatment option for patients seeking reliable results.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign treatment employs removable, transparent plastic trays that incrementally shift teeth into proper position without visible metal components. Custom-fabricated aligners allow for easy removal during meals and oral hygiene routines while maintaining discreet appearance throughout the treatment process.
TMD & TMJ Treatment
Specialized treatment addresses temporomandibular joint disorders causing jaw pain, headaches, and restricted movement. Diagnostic evaluation identifies specific issues like joint clicking or bite misalignment, followed by customized therapeutic interventions to alleviate symptoms and restore normal jaw function.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
Early intervention treatment guides proper facial growth and dental arch development in children. Orthopedic appliances help correct skeletal discrepancies before adolescence, creating optimal conditions for permanent tooth eruption and subsequent orthodontic treatment.
Surgical Orthodontics
Combined orthodontic and surgical treatment corrects severe jaw misalignments in adults. Pre-surgical braces prepare teeth for optimal positioning, followed by coordinated surgical repositioning of jawbones to achieve proper bite relationship and facial symmetry.
