Why orthodontics
What you gain beyond the smile.
Better chewing
Well positioned teeth mean much better chewing.
Clearer speech
The mouth is the voice's sounding box. The better its form, the clearer the speech.
Symmetry
Treatment contributes to the symmetry of the teeth and of the bones that support them.
Easier cleaning
Straight teeth are easier to clean, so decay and gingivitis are easier to avoid.

Frequently asked questions
Do you see patients by appointment only? What about emergencies?
Mostly by appointment, so that you do not wait. In an emergency you can come straight in.
At what age should the first orthodontic examination take place?
The ideal age is 7. That is when the first signs of a child's orthodontic condition show.
Up to what age can someone visit the practice?
We mainly treat children, teenagers and young adults. Where needed, we refer to associated specialists such as periodontists and maxillofacial surgeons.
Will treatment hurt?
Treatment is gentle. The early difficulty mostly comes from the mouth getting used to the appliances.
Will I need teeth removed?
Extractions used to be common. Today they are done only when absolutely necessary.
Are there clear or invisible braces?
Yes. There are discreet and almost invisible options, which you can see in person at the practice.
The doctor wants to see my child every 6 months. Will you remind me?
Yes. Reception reminds you of the check-up by SMS, email or phone.
Will the result stay stable?
Stability depends on the right diagnosis, the right treatment plan and your cooperation during and after treatment.
