Typically, orthodontic treatment usually begins when all the permanent teeth have erupted. The braces straighten the permanent teeth and improve the bite.
Braces aren't just for kids anymore. Teeth can be straightened at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. We offer a variety of treatments designed for adults.
There is a solution to having straighter teeth without having to wear the traditional metal braces. Known as clear braces, this type of treatment moves teeth just as efficiently as metal braces, except the brackets are clear, so they are less noticeable.
Iconix stainless steel champagne coloured brackets truly offer the best of both worlds - the durability of stainless steel and the aesthetics of "white" gold. A unique proprietary process ensures these brackets will stay champagne coloured for the duration of treatment. When matched with gold wire and clear ligatures, Iconix offers a complete patient pleasing cosmetic system that requires literally no sacrifice on your part.
Invisalign® is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want.
Lingual braces are placed behind the upper and/or lower teeth, creating a more aesthetically pleasing effect, offering a completely invisible treatment option.
Retention is a very important phase of orthodontic treatment, maintaining the teeth in their new position following active orthodontic treatment.
