ALIGNERS & BRACE

A clinically guided orthodontic approach designed to correct tooth alignment, improve bite function, and support long-term oral health.

What Happens During Treatment?

Orthodontic Assessment & Diagnostics

A full evaluation of teeth, jaw alignment, and bite is conducted using clinical examination, photographs, and digital imaging where appropriate.

Treatment Planning

Based on findings, a personalised plan is created outlining the recommended approach—clear aligners, fixed braces, or alternative orthodontic systems.

Appliance Placement or Aligner Fitting

Aligners are custom-fabricated for progressive movement, or braces are placed with controlled force systems to guide alignment.

Monitoring & Adjustments

Regular reviews ensure teeth are moving as planned, with adjustments made to maintain comfort and effectiveness.

Retention Phase

Once alignment goals are achieved, retainers are provided to maintain results and prevent relapse.
