Which orthodontic treatment suit you best?
The most common asked question for orthodontic patient is “Which orthodontic treatment is suitable for me?”. Our doctor will spend time understand your dental condition, your oral hygiene practices, main complaints and personal expectations. We provide these orthodontic treatment in BestSmile:
1. Conventional Braces
The most common type of braces, consist of stainless steel brackets and archwire with colourful elastic band to move your teeth to the correct position.

2. Self-ligating Braces
It has a patented sliding cover design that can be used to secure the correction wire, reducing the force exerted on the teeth. This not only provides greater comfort and reduces pain, but also speeds up the movement of the teeth, improving issues such as protruding teeth and a protruding mouth.

3. Aligners (invisalign®, AngelAligner)
If patient main concern is afraid of pain, we will recommend clear aligners that are easy to remove and pain-less tooth movement. However, it still depends on our doctors evaluation to determine if you are suitable for aligners
