Orthodontic braces are designed to correct dental and jaw issues across all age groups. For children (aged 7 to 9), early treatment addresses alignment problems and prevents future complications using braces, expanders, or retainers. Teenagers (aged 11 to 15) benefit from braces and aligners to tackle more complex dental issues, promoting healthy growth and enhancing their smile aesthetics. Adults can also explore discreet options like clear aligners and ceramic braces to improve both function and appearance. Our personalized approach ensures effective results, boosting confidence and oral health at any age.
It is a clear orthodontic system based on customized transparent plastic aligners, individually made for each patient. These aligners are designed using 3D technology, allowing the teeth to gradually move toward the ideal position over time
Traditional braces available in stainless steel or tooth-colored ceramic for effective alignment.
Hidden behind teeth, providing discreet orthodontic treatment.
Damon braces are used to correct teeth and jaw alignment issues more gently, as they help expand the jaw and provide the necessary space without often needing to extract teeth.
Myobrace is considered a non-surgical option for correcting dental issues at an early age, as it helps improve jaw development and reduces the need for traditional orthodontics in the future
Most orthodontic problems (malocclusions) are inherited. These genetic problems include crowding, spacing, protrusion, extra or missing teeth, and jaw growth problems. Other malocclusions are acquired as a result of thumb or finger-sucking, dental disease, accidents, and the early or late loss of baby (primary) teeth.
Orthodontic treatment creates a better bite, makes teeth fit better, and decreases the risk of future and potentially costly dental problems. Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain. A malocclusion can cause tooth enamel to wear abnormally, difficulty in chewing and/or speaking, and excess stress on supporting bone and gum tissue. Without treatment, many problems simply become worse.
Orthodontists are dental specialists who diagnose, prevent, and treat dental and facial irregularities. They receive an additional two to three years of specialized education beyond dental school to learn how to align and straighten teeth properly. Only those who successfully complete this formal education may call themselves “orthodontists”
The AAO recommends that your child get a check-up with an orthodontist at first recognizing an orthodontic problem, but no later than age 7. By then, your child has enough permanent teeth for an orthodontist to determine whether an orthodontic problem is developing. Putting off a check-up with an orthodontist until a child has lost all baby teeth could be a disservice. Some orthodontic problems may be easier to correct if they are found early. A check-up no later than age 7 gives your orthodontist the opportunity to recommend the appropriate treatment at the appropriate time. If early treatment is in order, the orthodontist may be able to achieve results that may not be possible once the face and jaws have finished growing.
Orthodontic treatment is a partnership between the patient and the orthodontist. The orthodontist provides custom-made fixed or removable appliances that use gentle pressure over time to move teeth into their proper positions. Your job is to follow the orthodontist’s instructions, keep scheduled orthodontic appointments and maintain excellent oral hygiene so you achieve your best results. You will also need to see your primary care dentist as recommended.
Orthodontic treatment averages less than two years, but can range from one to three years. When “active” treatment ends, retainers are prescribed for most patients to keep teeth in their new positions.
The cost of orthodontic treatment depends on many factors, including the severity of the problem, its complexity and length of treatment. Book now your free consultation and our orthodontist will be glad to discuss the best treatment options and fees with you before treatment begins.
