Orthodontic Treatment
A, beautiful, healthy smile is as important at age 9 as it is at age 90.
Our highly qualified orthodontist can help enhance your smile and improve your dental hygiene, children and adults alike.
Treatments aim to improve aesthetic and functional qualities of teeth, jaws and gum. Crooked, crowed teeth are aligned, bites and unsightly gaps are corrected and chewing is improved; your teeth become easy to clean and maintain.
Our orthodontist will guide you throughout therapy, accompanying you through diagnosis and treatment of dental and facial
irregularities, using the latest in orthodontic equipment and technology.
Care for children
Children as young as age 4 can benefit from early orthodontic intervention.
For children with clear indication, which include thumb-suckers and children with an irregular tongue thrust, early orthodontic treatment can rapidly correct teeth and jaw position allowing for future normal growth.
Treatment is generally undertaken around the age of 9. At this age enough permanent teeth have erupted and jaw has grown enough for our orthodontist to identify current problems and anticipate future ones.
Improperly aligned teeth and jaws are most commonly corrected with the latest in either removable or fixed appliances, such as braces.
Care for adults
Healthy teeth can be straightened at any age as orthodontic forces work in the same way for adults as for children.
Our orthodontist brings adult teeth, jaws and gums into proper alignment, achieving facial balance improving dental health.
Lingual Braces
With lingual orthodontics you can straighten you teeth with braces that are not visible. These are placed on the inner surface of
your teeth where they cannot be seen. This method is just as effective as the conventional method of placing braces on the outer surface of the teeth.
