Orthodontic treatment aligns teeth and improves the way the upper and lower jaws fit together. A well-planned result can support easier hygiene, comfortable function, balanced tooth wear and greater confidence.
At Makhzan Orthodontics, the appliance is only one part of the plan. Dr. Makhzan first studies your bite, tooth position, growth, goals and lifestyle. He then explains the available paths and recommends a treatment designed for your specific needs.
An evaluation may be helpful if you or your child has:
Only a clinical examination can determine whether treatment is appropriate and which approach offers the most predictable path.
Metal braces offer precise, reliable control for a wide range of orthodontic needs. Today’s brackets are smaller and more refined than many patients expect.
Ceramic braces use tooth-colored or clear components for a lower-profile appearance while retaining many of the control advantages of fixed braces.
Clear Aligners use removable, custom-made aligners to guide tooth movement. It can be an effective choice for selected teens and adults who can wear aligners consistently.
Some growing children benefit from treatment that guides jaw development or creates space for permanent teeth. Dr. Makhzan recommends early treatment only when it can address a current problem or provide a meaningful future advantage.
Retainers protect the alignment created during treatment. Dr. Makhzan will recommend a retention plan based on the smile and the type of movement completed.
Dr. Makhzan combines a thorough examination with digital records as appropriate. He evaluates not only where the teeth are today, but how each proposed movement may affect the bite and long-term result.
Your plan will cover:
Dr. Makhzan examines your teeth, jaws and bite, reviews your goals and gathers digital records as needed.
You receive a clear explanation of the findings and a personalized treatment recommendation.
Braces or aligners guide the teeth according to the plan. Regular visits allow Dr. Makhzan to assess progress and make adjustments.
Once active movement is complete, retainers help preserve the result. Consistent wear is essential because teeth can shift throughout life.
