There are different ways to treat and correct anomalies and disorders of form, position, relationship and function of our dentomaxillofacial structures:

• Orthodontics with functional appliances: functional or interceptive orthodontics is a type of children's appliance, used in the oral cavity of children between 6 and 12 years of age, which guides growth and promotes the proper development of the maxillary and mandibular bones.

• Fixed orthodontics (Brackets or Damon self-ligating)Damon System brackets use a passive cap mechanism that keeps the archwire inside the bracket while allowing it to move freely. This reduces friction so teeth move quickly and more comfortably.

• Invisible orthodontics (Spark): Spark's clear aligners are composed of a set of removable splints (take off and put on). Their technology makes it possible to move the teeth by exerting constant gentle pressure on the dentition.
