Orthodontics

Straighten your teeth and gain confidence with orthodontic treatment from PacificWest Dental Group!

Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics is the branch of dentistry that focuses on improving the alignment of teeth and guiding the growth and development of facial bones and jaws 

What Is an Orthodontist?

Orthodontists are experts at lining up and straightening jaws and teeth. Requiring an additional two to three years of specialty training beyond dental school, orthodontists treat kids and adults for many problems, from crowded or spaced teeth to jaw growth and alignment issues. Using braces, retainers, and a lot of love and laughter, an orthodontist creates beautiful smiles.

Orthodontists are dentists who specialize in straightening the jaws and teeth. They can diagnose and treat several issues, including crooked or misaligned teeth, overcrowding, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. Our team offers braces and Invisalign to straighten your smile and give you the confidence you deserve. Call PacificWest to book a consultation today.

Whether you’re getting braces or emergency orthodontic treatment, the team at PacificWest Dental Group is here for you. Here are the treatment options available at our Metro Vancouver offices.

Braces and Invisalign

Braces and Invisalign are great treatment options that straighten your teeth and can give you the smile of your dreams. Here’s what we offer at our office:

Pacific West Dental Metal Braces

Traditional Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are the most affordable and highly effective orthodontic treatment.

Gold Braces

Gold Braces

Opt for gold braces for visual appeal. Constructed with 24K gold plating, they function the same as traditional metal braces, offering effective treatment at a reasonable price point.

Ceramic braces

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are translucent and have a subtle appearance. Although not completely invisible due to the presence of the metal wire, ceramic braces are much less noticeable than traditional braces. However, they have a slightly bulkier profile and are more fragile than metal braces.

Lingual Braces

 Lingual braces are the only orthodontic treatment considered completely invisible. They are placed behind the teeth and cannot be seen outside the mouth.

Invisalign

Invisalign is a system of clear, plastic, removable aligners custom made to provide a precise fit over your teeth. Wearing each aligner for a designated amount of time, the teeth are gently pushed into the final position. As a removable appliance, you can take out the aligners to eat or attend important functions. However, effectiveness is highly dependent on wear time, so it would be best if you wear the aligners 20-22 hours daily for the treatment to succeed.

We are confident PacificWest Dental Group’s professional and friendly service will meet your needs. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions!
