Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for teens and adults, it offers comfort and convenience with fewer office visits. Patients wear each aligner set for 7-14 days, gradually shifting teeth into optimal alignment while maintaining oral hygiene easily.
Braces
Traditional metal and ceramic braces provide precise tooth movement for complex cases. Self-ligating brackets reduce friction and adjustment frequency, enhancing comfort. Treatment duration varies but averages 1-3 years, with regular checkups ensuring steady progress toward a stable bite.
iTero Scanner
The iTero scanner replaces messy impressions with 3D digital imaging for accurate treatment planning. It creates detailed models in minutes, improving diagnostic precision and patient comfort. This technology streamlines Invisalign and braces setup, ensuring better-fitting appliances and predictable outcomes.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention addresses developmental issues in children aged 7+. Pre-orthodontic guidance optimizes jaw growth and prevents severe problems. Phase 1 treatment simplifies future braces use, promoting proper eruption of permanent teeth and reducing long-term complications risk.
Adult Orthodontics
Specialized solutions address adult orthodontic needs, including discreet clear braces and Invisalign. Treatment considers existing dental work and oral health conditions. We focus on bite correction, spacing, and alignment to improve function, aesthetics, and overall confidence.
