Fixed Orthodontics for Adults
Regaining Function and Esthetics with Classic and Modern Solutions
Even in adulthood, fixed orthodontics is an effective solution to correct malocclusions, dental misalignments, crowding, and arch discrepancies. Today’s treatments are more comfortable, discreet, and adaptable to the needs of those who want to improve their smile without compromising work or social life.
