Orthodontic Consultations
Orthodontic treatment can help correct a wide range of dental issues, including:
Invisalign is a discreet and convenient orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth and correct bite issues gradually. Ideal for adults and teens, Invisalign offers a comfortable and virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces.
Traditional braces consist of metal brackets and wires bonded to the teeth and adjusted periodically to shift them into the desired position gradually. This time-tested orthodontic treatment is highly effective for correcting many dental issues.
Clear traditional braces offer the same effectiveness as metal braces but with clear or tooth-colored brackets that blend seamlessly with your natural smile. This aesthetic option is popular among patients seeking a more discreet orthodontic treatment.
Retainers are custom-made appliances designed to maintain teeth alignment following orthodontic treatment. They are typically worn at night to prevent teeth from returning to their original position.
A bonded permanent retainer is a thin wire bonded to the back surface of the teeth to prevent them from shifting after orthodontic treatment. This fixed retainer provides long-term stability and requires minimal maintenance.
A palatal expander is a removable or fixed appliance that gradually widens the upper jaw to correct crossbites and create space for crowded teeth.
The Herbst appliance is a fixed orthodontic appliance that corrects overbites by encouraging the lower jaw to grow forward.
A positioner is a removable appliance that fine-tunes teeth alignment following orthodontic treatment, ensuring optimal results and long-term stability.
The Forsus appliance is a fixed orthodontic appliance that corrects overbites and improves bite alignment by applying continuous gentle pressure to the teeth and jaw.
Spacers are small elastic or metal devices placed between teeth to create space before orthodontic treatment, such as braces or Invisalign.
