Braces
Traditional and clear braces correct misaligned teeth and bite issues for improved oral health. Options include metal, ceramic, and self-ligating braces. Treatment duration varies based on case complexity, typically lasting 12-24 months. Our team ensures comfortable adjustments and personalized care throughout the process.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses removable, transparent trays to straighten teeth discreetly. Suitable for teens and adults, treatment involves periodic tray changes. Limited cases take 3-12 months, while comprehensive plans last 12+ months. iTero scans create precise digital impressions for customized aligner fabrication.
Early Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention addresses skeletal and dental issues in children aged 7-10. Corrects jaw discrepancies, creates space for permanent teeth, and prevents future extractions. Typically lasts 9-18 months, followed by a retention phase until full dental development.
Surgical Orthodontics
Corrective jaw surgery realigns misaligned jaws in conjunction with orthodontic treatment. Addresses functional issues like sleep apnea, chewing difficulties, and facial asymmetry. Pre-surgical orthodontics (12-18 months) precedes surgery, followed by post-operative adjustments for optimal bite alignment.
Emergency Care
Prompt treatment for urgent orthodontic issues like broken brackets, poking wires, or severe discomfort. Our team provides immediate guidance and same-day appointments when necessary. Patients receive care instructions for temporary relief until professional adjustments can be made.
