Orthodontic Appliances and Retainers

Treatment of Teeth Misalignment

Orthodontic appliances and retainers are among the most commonly used solutions for the treatment of teeth misalignment and any other aesthetic irregularities of the teeth. To provide the patient with the best dental solution for their specific issue, an orthodontist will collaborate with a dental laboratory to diagnose the patient and come up with the best treatment method.

Depending on the specifics of a case, different types of orthodontic appliances can be prescribed. Our years of experience have taught us that there is no one universal solution and each patient requires a specially-designed orthodontic appliance design that will deliver the most optimal results and provide the highest level of comfort.

At Semdent Digital Lab, customisable orthodontic appliances are available to any specification. Please leave detailed instructions on the laboratory design pad for individual requests. We are renowned for the seamless communication we establish with our partnering dental practices and strive to deliver the highest quality product in the least amount of time.
