Orthodontic Treatment

We believe our clients deserve the best smile that they can have.

Orthodontic treatment goes beyond just straight teeth. It is meant to achieve harmony and balance between the teeth, bite, lips and face.

At Jasbir Dental Specialist, we take the time to listen to your concerns and formulate an individualised plan to achieve the most ideal smile customised for you.

Fixed Appliance (Braces)

To achieve great results, we need a great system. That is why we rely on the Damon System. Choose between metal or clear brackets to suite your needs.

Compared to Traditional Braces, the Damon System (https://damonbraces.com/en-us/) has the advantage of being:

  • More comfortable
  •   Faster treatment time.
  •   Smaller and More Discrete.
  •   Easier to Keep Clean.
  •   Suitable for Complex Treatment.

Interceptive Orthodontic Treatment

This is the early treatment of developing problems usually starting between the ages of 6 to 10 years old. Interceptive treatment can help to correct severe orthodontic problems before they become serious. Interceptive Orthodontic treatment can have the following benefits: (https://aaoinfo.org/whats-trending/is-there-a-benefit-to-early-treatment/)
Growing the jaws to fit the teeth which may result in no need for extraction of teeth.
Interceptive orthodontic treatment is done to expand the patient’s jaw using braces and springs at Jasbir Dental Specialist Melaka.
Adjusting the growth of jaws for better face development.
Better breathing and chewing function.

The kinds of problems orthodontists recommend treating while a child still has some baby teeth include:

  • Underbites – when the lower front teeth are ahead of the upper front teeth
  • Crossbites – when the jaw shifts to one side
  • Very crowded teeth
  • Excessively spaced teeth
  • Extra or missing teeth
  • Teeth that meet abnormally, or don’t meet at all
  • Thumb, finger, or pacifier sucking that is affecting the teeth or jaw growth
If you suspect your child may be developing any of this orthodontic problem, do not wait, schedule an appointment for a consultation.

Combined Orthodontic and Orthognathic Surgery

In some cases, the jaws have grown too far apart and as an adult, the jaw position is fixed. This jaw discrepancy can be corrected by a combination of orthodontics and orthognathic surgery. This procedure can be life changing for those who suffer from very long lower jaw or very short lower jaw.

Clear Aligner Treatment

Clear aligners are dental trays that help you achieve a straighter smile by gradually shifting crooked teeth (malocclusions) into alignment. Unlike braces that use metal brackets and wires, aligners are clear plastic. They’re barely visible when worn, allowing you to straighten your teeth discretely.
Advantages of clear aligners include:

  • They are virtually invisible, making them more aesthetically pleasing than traditional braces.
  •   They are less bulky than traditional braces and don’t use wires or brackets, so they won’t rub your lips or cheeks.
  •   They can be removed easily for eating, brushing, and flossing.
  •   They require fewer visits to the orthodontist.
  •   They are more comfortable than traditional braces, as they don’t have metal brackets or wires that can cause irritation.
  •   They allow for easy brushing and flossing.
  •   They boost self-confidence.
