Orthodontics

Conventional and invisible orthodontics

Invisible orthodontics is a system of invisible braces that, unlike conventional braces, is able to move teeth in a very controlled and accurate way via a computerized system. It works using small moulds, called bespoke aligners, made for each specific patient using a special completely transparent material. This system can be applied and removed without difficulty, and it’s very easy to use and comfortable to wear, without affecting personal appearance.

From the first aligner, your teeth are gradually moving and adapting to the shape of the device within 7 days (22 hours a day), at which time it changes and moves to the next stage, and so on, under control of the orthodontist. This system allows to get your teeth in the desired position much faster than conventional braces.

Dr. Silvia Garcia Jimenez has over a decade of  experience in cases using this system and has been awarded the Invisalign Platinum level.

Lingual orthodontics (Incognito)

Incognito Lingual Orthodontics provides excellent aesthetics because the placement of the brackets is on the lingual surface of the teeth. This system is completely computerized and individualized for each patient, solving the problems of dental malposition without impairing the aesthetics at all. It is the ideal alternative, along with invisible orthodontics (see below) for adult patients who do not wish to display devices for the duration of treatment.

Transparent low friction braces

Low friction brackets are similar to conventional brackets attachments in lifetime but, rather than being metal, they are transparent and imitate the same color of the enamel and they also easily slip on, decreasing the maximum processing time.
