Oral Screening

Oral screening is a preventive examination done to detect early signs of oral cancer or other abnormalities in the mouth, lips, tongue, and throat. It helps in early diagnosis and treatment of serious conditions.

Procedure:
♦ Visual and physical examination of the mouth, tongue, gums, cheeks, and throat
♦ Checking for red or white patches, sores, lumps, or any unusual changes
♦ Palpation of jaw and neck to check lymph nodes

This screening is usually done during routine dental check-ups and is especially important for high-risk patients.

Orthodontics(Metal Braces)

Orthodontics is concerned with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of improper bites resulting from tooth irregularity and improper jaw relationships. Braces are customized appliances used to correct these problems. Crooked or overcrowded teeth can cause a variety of difficulties, including tooth decay, gum disease and damage to jaw joints.

An orthodontic treatment can change your face shape and smile which in turn translates  into an improved self-image . Without treatment, orthodontic problems can lead to tooth decay, gum disease, bone destruction, chewing and digestive difficulties, speech impairments, tooth loss and other dental injuries.

Orthodontics (Ceramic Braces)

Ceramic braces are the same size and shape as metal braces, except that they have tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in to teeth. Some even use tooth-colored wires to be even less noticeable.

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are removable, nearly invisible orthodontic devices used to straighten teeth and correct mild to moderate bite issues like crowding, gaps, overbites, or underbites. Aligners apply gentle pressure to move teeth gradually. Each set shifts teeth 0.2mm to 0.3mm and is worn for about two weeks. Attachments may be added to help movement.

Process:
♦ Digital scan or impressions taken
♦ Custom aligner sets created (12 to 48 sets based on case)
♦ Worn 6 to 18 months on average
♦ Retainer used after treatment to maintain results

Aligners are less invasive than braces and allow for a more comfortable, discreet treatment.
