Orthodontics

Treatment that corrects tooth alignment and the way the upper and lower teeth bite together (occlusion).

Teeth are gradually moved with brackets and wires or clear aligners to create a neat alignment and correct occlusion. It not only improves esthetics but also helps gum health and chewing function.
