invisalign First™ is an orthodontic treatment designed specifically for children who still have baby teeth or a mix of baby and permanent teeth.
Clear aligners are typically recommended for children between the ages of 6 and 10 experiencing issues such as crowding, spacing, or bite problems that may require orthodontic treatment.
Early orthodontic treatment, also known as interceptive orthodontic treatment, is diagnosing and treating orthodontic problems in children at an early age, typically between the ages of 6 and 10.
We correct issues such as crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites before they become more severe to avoid more extensive treatments later in life.
Complete Dental Check-Up

Root Canal for Baby Teeth
This is a specialized dental treatment that removes any infection from baby teeth, helping to preserve its structure and function. This prevents discomfort and supports proper spacing for permanent teeth.
