Orthodontics

Orthodontics is not just about straightening teeth for a beautiful smile. Proper alignment of teeth, lips and jaws facilitates a healthy smile. Straighter teeth are easier to keep clean and the ultimate goal of orthodontics is improved oral health.

There are a variety of treatment appliances in orthodontic practice; these include:

• Braces (silver or ceramic) fixed to the teeth on the cheek side
• Lingual Braces (braces placed on the tongue side of teeth so that they are less visible)
• Invisalign (a series of removable aligners or trays)
