Orthodontics & Aligners

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry focused on correcting misaligned teeth, jaw irregularities, and bite problems. These treatments not only enhance the appearance of your smile but also improve long-term oral health, speech, and chewing function.

Modern orthodontic treatments include traditional braces as well as clear, removable aligners—providing flexible solutions for patients of all ages. Whether you want a discreet option or a comprehensive correction, orthodontic care offers predictable and long-lasting results.


Why Orthodontic Treatment Matters

Misaligned teeth are not just an aesthetic concern. They can cause:

  • Difficulty chewing

  • Speech problems

  • Excessive tooth wear

  • Jaw pain and headaches

  • Increased risk of cavities and gum disease

  • Poor facial symmetry

Orthodontics corrects these issues by guiding teeth and jaws into their proper position.


Types of Orthodontic Treatments

1. Traditional Metal Braces

Metal braces are the most common and effective orthodontic option for complex cases.
They consist of brackets, wires, and bands that gradually move teeth into alignment.

Benefits

  • Suitable for all levels of misalignment

  • Highly durable

  • Ideal for children, teens, and adults

  • Cost-effective


2. Ceramic (Tooth-Colored) Braces

Ceramic braces work like metal braces but use tooth-colored materials for a more discreet appearance.

Advantages

  • Less noticeable than metal

  • Effective for moderate and severe cases

  • Blends seamlessly with natural teeth


3. Lingual Braces (Hidden Braces)

Lingual braces are placed behind the teeth, making them invisible from the front.

Best For

  • Patients who want a completely hidden treatment

  • Professionals and public figures

  • Moderate to complex orthodontic needs


4. Clear Aligners (Invisalign & Similar Systems)

Clear aligners are transparent, removable trays designed to straighten teeth comfortably and discreetly.

Orthodontic Treatment Process

1. Consultation & Digital Scanning

We evaluate your bite, take X-rays, and use 3D digital scans to create a customized treatment plan.

2. Treatment Planning

We determine the ideal orthodontic method—braces, aligners, or a combination.
