Fixed Braces

Fixed braces remain one of the most trusted and effective orthodontic appliances for correcting misaligned, crooked, or crowded teeth, as well as complex dental and facial irregularities. Lilac Medical Centre combines traditional orthodontics with modern techniques to deliver precise, predictable results using traditional metal braces or ceramic braces. Whether you are a teenager starting your orthodontic treatment or an adult addressing different concerns, fixed orthodontic braces offer reliable correction for dental malocclusions, bite issues, and jaw alignment problems.

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are a discreet, flexible orthodontic treatment option, ideal for adults and teens seeking a virtually invisible appliance for straightening teeth. We use Invisalign to gradually shift teeth into their proper alignment using gentle pressure, without wires or brackets. This treatment improves tooth alignment, supports oral hygiene, and effectively addresses mild to moderate dental issues such as crooked teeth, spacing, and crowded teeth, promoting a healthier smile and better oral health.

Early Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on correcting dental and facial irregularities affecting both teeth and jaws. Early orthodontic treatment plays a crucial role in guiding jaw growth, managing the transition of baby teeth, and preventing future orthodontic problems such as dental crowding, misaligned bites, or protruding upper front teeth. Early evaluation ensures timely intervention for children who show signs of emerging dental issues, helping them achieve a healthier bite, improved oral function, and long-term overall oral health.

FAQs

What is orthodontics, and what does an orthodontist do?
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating misaligned, crooked, or crowded teeth, jaw alignment issues, and other dental and facial irregularities. An orthodontist creates a personalized treatment plan using orthodontic braces, clear aligners, lingual braces, and other orthodontic appliances to improve tooth alignment, oral function, and overall oral health.
A child’s first orthodontic evaluation is recommended around age 7, when both baby and permanent teeth are present, allowing early detection of dental malocclusions, jaw growth problems, and dental crowding. However, orthodontic treatment varies depending on individual needs, and adults can begin care at any age to achieve a healthy smile and proper alignment.
Treatment options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and clear aligners, moving teeth into their desired positions with gentle pressure. These appliances help correct protruding upper front teeth, concerns about upper front teeth, crowded teeth, and other orthodontic issues, offering cosmetic and functional benefits.
The treatment duration depends on the severity of dental concerns and bite problems, as well as how the teeth and jaws respond to orthodontic care. Most clients wear braces or aligners for several months to a few years, with the goal of achieving proper alignment, improving oral health, and preventing complications like excessive wear, gum disease, or tooth decay.
Coverage varies by provider, but many insurance plans cover orthodontic treatment, especially when correcting functional issues such as jaw misalignment, dental malocclusions, or crowded teeth. Clients are encouraged to review their policy or consult our team for guidance in choosing the most suitable treatment options.
