Services
Pinhole Surgical Technique
This minimally invasive procedure treats gum recession through small incisions and tissue repositioning. Unlike traditional grafting, it requires no sutures or palate harvesting. Patients experience faster recovery and natural-looking results. Ideal for those with moderate to severe gum recession seeking long-term solutions.
DNA Appliance Therapy
This innovative orthodontic approach develops dental arches using a removable appliance worn 12-17 hours daily. It creates space for proper tooth alignment without extractions. Particularly effective for adults seeking non-surgical facial development and improved airway function.
Invisalign Treatment
Custom-made transparent aligners gradually straighten teeth without metal braces. Treatment includes digital planning and periodic aligner changes. Suitable for correcting crowding, spacing, and mild bite issues while maintaining aesthetics during treatment.
Dental Implants
Titanium posts replace missing tooth roots, supporting crowns or dentures. The process includes surgical placement and restoration phases. Offers durable, natural-looking solutions that preserve jawbone density and facial structure over time.
Myobrace System
Early intervention addresses poor oral habits affecting jaw development. Includes appliances and exercises to correct tongue posture and breathing patterns. Prevents future orthodontic issues while promoting proper facial growth in children.
