Services
Orthodontic Braces
Traditional metal and ceramic braces correct misaligned teeth using brackets and archwires. Self-ligating options reduce adjustment needs while maintaining effectiveness. Treatment duration varies based on individual needs, typically 18-30 months for comprehensive cases.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign uses custom 3D-printed aligners to gradually straighten teeth without metal brackets. Patients appreciate the removable design for eating and cleaning, with average treatment times ranging from 9-18 months depending on complexity.
Surgical Orthodontics
Orthognathic surgery corrects severe bite issues and jaw misalignment in conjunction with braces. This combined approach addresses functional problems and facial aesthetics, typically for adult patients with completed jaw growth.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Interceptive orthodontics for children aged 7-9 addresses developing bite issues and creates space for permanent teeth. Early intervention often prevents more complex treatment later, reducing potential extraction needs.
Accelerated Orthodontics
PROPEL and AcceleDent technologies enhance tooth movement speed without compromising safety. These methods can reduce treatment duration by 30-50% when combined with traditional braces or aligners.
