WHAT IS ORTHODONTICS?

Crooked teeth or spaces between the teeth may be a source of oral health problems, not to add embarrassment or self-consciousness. Improperly aligned teeth and jaws also can lead to tooth decay and a host of sometimes painful dental disorders.

The good news is that orthodontic treatment can correct this and help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.

At Smile Builders, our certified specialists in orthodontics will guide you with the best-suited option for your teeth.

Once you have taken your x-rays and a diagnosis made, our orthodontist will design a personalized treatment plan.

 INVISALIGN®

Invisalign aligners are subtle and barely noticeable, providing effective treatment with predictable, long-lasting results. 

In addition, this orthodontic treatment replaces the traditional braces systems, offering an aesthetic, hardly visible, best solution to the following oral health problems:

  • Straightens crowded teeth
  • Corrects different types of bites, such as crossbites, overbites & underbites
  • Closes spaces or gaps for a better-looking smile

This great alternative uses clear plastic aligners to move and straighten our patient’s teeth.

They work in a set of series aligners that continuously shifts your teeth into the correct place.

Each set is custom-made for your teeth. They are worn for around two weeks each, then replaced with the next set in the series.

As a result, the main benefits of Invisalign® versus traditional braces are:

  • They are comfortable to wear and better-looking than conventional braces
  • They are a removable orthodontic treatment

  • Fewer consultations required

Moreover, it is significant to recognize that not all patients are candidates for this orthodontic treatment.

BRACES

Traditional braces are the most common alternative for orthodontic treatments.

The braces are fixed to the tooth surface and then wired to connect the brackets to apply pressure and start the alignment.

This orthodontic treatment is familiar for most patients. Nevertheless, at Smile Builders, we have a variety of systems to suit your needs and budget.

Please find below the details on each of these options:

– Self-ligating metal braces
– Self-ligating ceramic braces
– Conventional metal braces
– Conventional sapphire braces

Self-ligating metal braces

 


First, self-ligating braces are an orthodontic treatment that is placed much like traditional braces, except for ligature.

There is no need for elastic or rubber bands or metal ties. Instead, special clips or brackets are bound to help the archwire move your teeth into place.

Compared to traditional braces, your teeth can reduce the amount of pressure and friction for our patients.

Self-ligating ceramic braces

 


If you are looking for an orthodontic treatment that is barely noticeable, this is a great option. Self-ligating ceramic braces are white or transparent and designed to be discreet.

Additionally, they blend in with the natural color of your teeth, which makes them less revealing and has an improved aesthetical look.

Conventional metal braces

 


 

This treatment in orthodontics is the most common and well-known procedure there is.
Conventional metal braces work by using a single bracket and arches to move your teeth into position.

Moreover, each bracket is placed on the surface of each tooth. In addition, a light force from the elastic bands is engaged while the arch-wire gradually straightens your teeth.

Conventional sapphire braces

 


 

This orthodontic treatment is a comfortable and transparent sapphire crystal or synthetic sapphire, adopting the color of the natural tooth and is barely visible.
Sapphire braces are known for their durability and are unlikely to deform, break or scratch throughout the process.
