ORTHODONTICS

Orthodontics is a speciality within dentistry concerned with the treatment of malocclusions (improper bites), crooked and misaligned teeth. Orthodontic treatments generally involve braces, smile aligners and other mouth splints to straighten the teeth and align the bite and jaw.

When is orthodontic treatment needed?

Since screw and crooked teeth can not only be problematic for the appearance of your smile but affect your ability to bite, chew and speak, orthodontic treatment is generally done for teens while they grow and develop to prevent future complications.

Myobrace

For early intervention in children aged 3 to 15, Dr Haripersad makes use of the Myobrace® System to address the cause of malocclusions and misaligned teeth. This orthodontic treatment involves a series of removable intra-oral appliances that are worn for 1-2 hours a day and while sleeping, helping prevent the need for braces later on.

Through habit correction, arch development, dental alignment and then retention, Myobrace® aims to ensure good oral habits are maintained, often preventing the need to wear a permanent retainer or wire for an extended period of time.

The benefits of the Myobrace® orthodontic system:

• Corrects poor oral habits like mouth breathing, tongue thrusting, thumb sucking, poor diet, poor posture and abnormal swallowing.
• Develops & aligns the jaws
• Straightens the teeth
• Optimises facial development
• Improves overall health
• Promotes healthy eating habits

Clear Aligners

Clear Aligners are clear braces that provide a comfortable, removable, transparent, predictable and effective means to straighten your teeth.

These transparent thermoplastic aligners are worn in stages to correct the alignment of your teeth, eliminating the need for metal screws and braces. As you replace each aligner every two weeks, your teeth will move little by little into the projected position.
