Services
Adult Braces
Adult braces correct misaligned teeth and jaws, improving oral health and aesthetics. Our practice offers metal, ceramic, and lingual options tailored to lifestyle needs. Treatment duration varies, with follow-up care ensuring lasting results.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses removable, transparent trays to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for mild to moderate cases, this treatment requires 22+ hours of daily wear and periodic tray replacements for gradual alignment.
Retainers
Retainers maintain teeth alignment post-treatment. Custom-fitted options include fixed and removable types, ensuring stability and preventing relapse. Proper care is essential for long-term success.
Teeth Straightening
Teeth straightening addresses crowding, spacing, and bite issues through braces or aligners. Personalized plans enhance function and appearance, promoting better oral hygiene and confidence.
Phase One Orthodontics
Phase One focuses on correcting developing bite and alignment issues in children. Early intervention optimizes jaw growth, creating space for permanent teeth and simplifying future treatment.
