How it works
Our orthodontics near you in Brampton West captures a 3D image of your teeth and plans your full treatment from start to finish. You can even see how your smile will look at the end before starting. You’ll wear each aligner set for about two weeks. Slowly, your teeth will shift into place.
2. Self-Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces use special clips instead of elastic ties to hold the wire in place. This allows teeth to move with less pressure and less discomfort. These braces are made from high-quality stainless steel or clear ceramic, so they are smaller and more discreet than regular braces.

Helps improve your full facial appearance
This is a good choice for people who want faster results with less discomfort. These braces help us guide your teeth into the right position while also keeping your smile and bite healthy.
3. Invisalign® and Invisalign Teen®
Invisalign is a clear and removable aligner that gently moves your teeth into the right place. Instead of metal braces, you wear smooth plastic trays that are almost invisible. You can take them out when eating, drinking, brushing, or flossing.
- Great for both adults and teens
- No wires or metal parts
- Eat whatever you like
- Easy to clean your teeth
- Nearly invisible to others
4. Spark Clear Aligners
This is an excellent choice for patients who want a clear, comfortable, and effective alternative to braces. Spark allows you to straighten your smile with confidence and convenience.
3. Incognito™ Braces
Incognito braces are placed behind your teeth, so no one can see them. These braces are fully custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly. They work just like regular metal braces, but they’re hidden from view.
Hidden behind the teeth
Good for adults and teens who want invisible treatment
Comfortable and customized
Safe for people who play musical instruments or contact sports
If you can wear regular braces, you are likely a good fit for Incognito braces, too. They help straighten teeth quietly and privately while still being effective.
