What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. Treatments such as braces or clear aligners improve function, aesthetics, and oral health, giving patients a confident, symmetrical smile. 

Who is it For?

  • Patients with crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth

  • Those seeking long-term improvement in dental health and aesthetics
  • Ideal for men, women, and teens looking for premium orthodontic solutions

How the Procedure Works

  • Consultation & Assessment: Dental imaging and bite analysis determine treatment needs.
  • Treatment Planning: Customized orthodontic plan designed (traditional braces or clear aligners).
  • Application of Appliances: Braces, aligners, or other devices are placed for gradual teeth movement.
  • Adjustment & Monitoring: Regular check-ups to ensure precise alignment progress.
  • Retention Phase: Retainers maintain the new teeth position for long-term stability.

Recovery & Downtime

  • Minimal downtime; daily activities can continue normally.
