Services
Traditional Metal Braces
Metal braces use steel brackets and archwires to correct tooth alignment. They offer durability and efficiency, with optional colored elastics for personalization. This treatment suits patients seeking reliable, cost-effective solutions for moderate to complex orthodontic issues.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign aligners are removable, transparent trays that gradually shift teeth into proper position. Ideal for adults and teens, this discreet option requires no brackets or wires while maintaining treatment effectiveness through customized digital planning.
Surgical Orthodontics
For severe jaw discrepancies, surgical orthodontics combines braces with corrective jaw surgery. Our team collaborates with oral surgeons to address functional issues like malocclusion, enhancing both bite alignment and facial symmetry through comprehensive treatment planning.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention addresses developing bite issues in children aged 7-10. By guiding jaw growth and creating space for permanent teeth, we reduce future treatment complexity while promoting proper oral development and self confidence.
Damon Smile Systems
Damon Smile uses friction-free brackets with sliding mechanisms to move teeth more efficiently. This system reduces adjustment frequency and treatment duration while maintaining precise control over tooth positioning for improved patient comfort.
