Braces Journey
Your Journey of Getting a Beautiful Smile

We’ll check if there’s any dental treatment required prior to braces such as scaling, filling, or extraction.
Step 2: Pre-Braces Dental Treatment/Braces Documentation
Pre-braces dental treatment might require a few appointments depending on the condition of the oral cavity, while braces documentation includes facial profiles, intra-oral photos, X-rays, and molds of your dentition.
Step 3: Kickstart Braces Journey
Now, it’s time for the placement of braces! We will determine the best treatment plan based on your dental issues.
Step 4: Follow-up
Follow-up appointments will be scheduled every 1 to 2 months to monitor your progression.
