Orthodontics

Conventional Braces

Orthodontics does more than just making us look good. With braces, you can:

  • Chew your food better
    Chewing is the first step in digestion. If your teeth are crooked, you will not be able to chew your food properly which can lead to indigestion.
  • Avoid potential dental problems
    Crooked teeth are hard to clean so that people with crooked teeth tend to have more cavities and gum problems than people who have orthodontic treatment. Crooked teeth wear in ways that they should not. This puts extra stress on your teeth, gums and jaw, which can lead to problems later on.

Orthodontics at Raffles Dental are all performed by specialists (Orthodontists).

Invisalign

Invisalign is a new revolutionary treatment option to patients seeking to do orthodontic treatment. Through a series of nearly invisible, completely removable plastic aligners, Invisalign gradually moves your teeth to give you back the beautiful smile you have always wanted – without brackets or wires. You can still enjoy all your favourite foods, and brush and floss normally!

Invisalign is an appropriate treatment option for teens and adults whose teeth have grown in fully, including second molars. To see how Invisalign can work, please call our office to schedule a initial screening with our orthodontist. As always, we look forward to discussing any questions or concerns you may have regarding any aspect of your dental health.
