Early / Interceptive / Preventive orthodontics
These treatments are designed to address malalignment early on, preventing potential future complications like severe bite problems, tooth damage, or jaw misalignment.
Upper removable appliances (URA)
An URA is a versatile customized orthodontic appliance that can effectively correct a variety of minor dental issues. By incorporating springs, wires, and screws, orthodontists can tailor URAs to address problems such as narrow jaws, crossbites, deep bites, tipped teeth, and protruding teeth.
2x4 fixed appliance
Early fixed braces can be very useful in certain cases, especially for correction of anterior crossbite, impacted upper incisors, and early creation of space.
Space maintainer
In some cases, baby teeth may be lost prematurely. To preserve space for the incoming permanent teeth and prevent misalignment, we may utilize a space maintainer.
Habit breaker
Habits like thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, and mouth breathing can negatively impact the natural growth of your child’s jaw and teeth. An orthodontist can assess your child’s specific needs and recommend appropriate oral appliances
Myobrace Therapy
Timed extractions
Our primary goal during dental development is to facilitate the natural eruption of permanent teeth. Extraction is a last resort, but sometimes required to create space for proper tooth alignment and prevent impaction.
Orthodontists can strategically time extractions to ensure proper permanent tooth eruption.
