We also provide fixed orthodontics and aligner therapy. Aligners are clear comfortable and removable thermoplastic material that can be an alternative to conventional braces. These customised trays are invisible and move the teeth in desired direction. This is achieved by wearing a series of aligners each 22 hours a day for one to two weeks at a time.
Fixed orthodontics are metal brackets (or ceramic) placed on individual teeth allowing the teeth to straighten over time. Come in for a comprehensive consultation to determine if these treatment options can be done to straighten the teeth and to fix malocclusions and to provide you with beautiful smile.
A 3d scan/impression is done and a treatment plan is performed to check if aligner therapy can be successful for each case. Once candidacy and treatment plan are approved the aligners will be ready for collection in approximately 2 weeks.
The dentist might have to place attachments on the teeth to provide better anchorage and retention and in certain cases stripping of the teeth interproximally will also be performed by the dentist.
