Services
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces use high-quality brackets and wires to gradually align teeth and correct bite issues. This method is ideal for patients requiring significant dental adjustments. Our team ensures comfort and efficiency through regular adjustments and modern techniques.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer a discreet, removable solution for straightening teeth without traditional brackets. Custom-fitted trays are designed for gradual movement, appealing to teens and adults seeking aesthetic alternatives. We provide iTero Scanner technology for precise digital impressions.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics addresses severe jaw misalignment and bite issues uncorrectable with braces alone. We collaborate with oral surgeons to plan procedures that align jaws for functional and cosmetic improvement, followed by orthodontic fine-tuning for optimal results.
Orthodontic Consultation
Our comprehensive consultations include X-rays, oral exams, and personalized treatment planning. Patients receive detailed explanations of their orthodontic needs and options, ensuring informed decisions about care tailored to their goals and lifestyle.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention guides jaw growth and prevents future dental issues in children. We address thumb-sucking, crowding, and bite problems using gentle techniques, setting the foundation for healthy permanent teeth alignment and reducing future treatment complexity.
