Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, removable clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. This discreet option is ideal for teens and adults seeking comfortable, nearly invisible orthodontic care. Our practice provides sequential aligner trays that gently shift teeth into proper alignment while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines.
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces remain the most effective solution for complex orthodontic cases. Our modern braces feature smaller, more comfortable brackets and advanced archwires that reduce treatment time. Regular adjustments ensure continuous tooth movement toward ideal positioning for improved function and aesthetics.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
Dentofacial orthopedics addresses jaw development issues in growing patients. Early intervention guides proper facial growth and creates adequate space for permanent teeth. This specialized treatment prevents severe malocclusions and often eliminates the need for future jaw surgery through strategic appliance use during developmental years.
TMJ Treatment
Our TMJ treatment program addresses temporomandibular joint disorders through customized oral appliances and bite adjustments. This approach alleviates symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and clicking sounds while improving overall jaw function and comfort during daily activities.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment optimizes orthodontic outcomes by addressing specific issues at ideal developmental stages. Phase I focuses on creating proper jaw space and alignment for children aged 7-10, while Phase II refines tooth positioning after all permanent teeth erupt, typically during adolescence.
