Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics is the branch of dentistry
that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental
and facial irregularities. An Orthodontist is a specialist who has
completed three years of post-graduate training to comprehensively
treat these irregularities of teeth, jaws and face.
Our mission is to deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care,
while fostering a culture of innovation, excellence, and continuous
learning. We strive to advance the art and science of conservative
dentistry and endodontics through cutting-edge research,
interdisciplinary collaboration, and community outreach.
Orthodontic treatment involves maintaining aesthetic harmony,
structural balance and functional efficiency. The orthodontic
treatment modalities include simple removable plates, fixed braces
to combination of orthodontic and surgical approaches based on the
severity of the problems.
The timing of the treatment depends upon the type of problem, age of
the patient, affordability and expectations of the parent and
patient. The introduction of tooth-coloured braces (ceramic),
invisible (lingual) braces and clear aligners have made this
treatment more acceptable by the adult patients.
