Dental Braces

Straighten your teeth with expert orthodontic care

What Are Dental Braces?

Dental braces are orthodontic devices used to correct misaligned teeth and jaw problems. They apply continuous pressure over time to gradually move teeth into proper position, resulting in a straighter smile and improved bite function.

At Avana Dental, our orthodontic specialists design personalized treatment plans using the latest bracing systems to achieve optimal results efficiently and comfortably.
