Services
Braces
Traditional metal braces use brackets, archwires, and rubber bands to gradually align teeth. This proven method effectively corrects severe misalignments and bite issues through periodic adjustments. Patients receive comprehensive care with regular monitoring to ensure optimal results.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces offer tooth-colored brackets for less visibility while maintaining effective alignment capabilities. These braces require special care due to their larger size and material fragility but provide aesthetic benefits for appearance-conscious patients seeking traditional treatment.
Damon Braces
Damon self-ligating braces use specialized clips instead of rubber bands to reduce friction and pressure during tooth movement. This system often requires fewer adjustments while maintaining effectiveness for moderate to complex alignment cases, potentially shortening treatment duration.
Aligners
Custom aligners provide removable, nearly invisible treatment for mild to moderate misalignments. Using digital impressions, we create sequential trays that gradually shift teeth into proper position while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses advanced 3D imaging to create personalized aligner trays that discreetly correct dental alignment. This popular option combines proven effectiveness with aesthetic appeal, offering removable trays that accommodate active lifestyles.

Report
I went to him for 6 years and none of the times, he told me that I had large amount of tartar buildup. Dentist that he recommended didn't let me know that either. I was not happy with the top part of my teeth alignment and he didn't do anything. I paid roughly 9000 to get my braces do ne here and this is how uninformed I was. You better be Korean and older or else they won't care.
