Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Patients wear each set for 1-2 weeks, gradually shifting teeth into proper alignment. The treatment includes regular checkups to monitor progress and ensure optimal results.
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces employ brackets and wires for precise tooth movement. They are durable and effective for correcting complex alignment issues across all age groups with regular adjustments.
Digital Scanning
Our iTero Element scanner creates detailed 3D dental models without messy impressions. This technology enables accurate treatment planning and visual simulations of post-treatment smile outcomes for better patient understanding.
Early Orthodontics
We provide early intervention for children to address bite issues and jaw development. This proactive approach can prevent more complex problems and reduce future treatment needs through specialized appliances.
Retainers
Custom Vivera retainers maintain teeth alignment after orthodontic treatment. These clear, durable retainers ensure long-term stability of your corrected smile with proper nightly wear and regular checkups.
