Services
We specialize in orthodontics. We treat children and adults, but we also take care of multidisciplinary treatments that require maxillofacial surgery, prosthetic restoration and periodontics.
Orthodontic appliances
This is our toolkit for moving teeth. All of them have advantages and disadvantages, our task is to choose the best one for the job.
Traditional braces
Standard braces have been used for over a 100 years and are still the gold standard. They give total control and precision for moving teeth and are the go-to appliance for children.
Lingual braces
With all the advantages of standard braces, the lingual technique is an extremely versatile appliance that is also completely invisible. This is the best solution for complex problems in adult patients.
Clear aligners
Aligners are the new rage. Almost invisble and very comfortable to wear, the perfect solution for smaller corrections. At first only used in adult treatments, they are now also available for adolescents.
Functional appliances
Functional appliances are used from 8 to 12 years of age. They correct growth deficiencies, for example by widening the upper jaw or bringing the lower jaw forwards and they simplify the treatment of the permanent teeth.
Miniscrews are the real revolution
Miniscrews let the orthodontist correct problems that were previously impossible.
From high precision tooth movements to growing the jaw, we can do almost anything.
This is why we specialized in miniscrews. By routinely using them we avoid compromises that harm the teeth and lead to unstable results.

Oral hygiene
We strive to help all our patients achieve the best possible oral hygiene. For our orthodontic patients, excellent dental hygiene is an absolute requirement during treatment. We check the oral hygiene at every control and do regular cleaning when necessary.
The airflow experience
„Free braces“
In cases of severe malocclusion, the insurance pays for the orthodontic treatment. To determine the severity, the international IOTN grading is used. Find out more about the conditions below.
The IOTN scaleOrthodontics: by age
Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that deals with moving teeth and giving the patient a functional occlusion and thus an attractive smile. Not only is a beautiful aesthetic result important for a treatment with braces, but also a correct bite , even if it is not obvious at first glance.
Functional treatment
Interceptive describes a treatment that takes place at a relatively early age (before the eruption of all permanent teeth) in order to correct certain anomalies of the chewing apparatus early and thus promote normal development. Between the ages of 7 and 12, removable or fixed devices can be used to control the growth and development of the jawbone or the mouth and masticatory muscles.
Main treatment
Is the "classic" braces treatment in adolescence or adulthood, mostly with so-called "brackets". The teeth are brought into the desired position, the upper and lower arches are coordinated. Depending on the severity, such treatment takes between 1.5 and 3 years. We pay particular attention to good cooperation, motivation and oral hygiene of our patients.
Adult treatment
Orthodontic treatments are of course also possible for adults. In order to make them as invisible as possible, you can choose between ceramic brackets, transparent aligners and internal (tongue-side) brackets. We would be happy to advise you on this and select the method that suits you!
