Our procedures

1.- Infection control: practicing infection control guarantees the patient treatment that is free from microbial transmission, with minimal risk of contracting infectious diseases.

2.- Mounted cast: dental casts are mounted on special articulators, with the teeth and jaws in the same position as the patient’s, for a better diagnosis of the malocclusion.

3.- Computerized cephalometrics: Special computer programs are used to study the position of the teeth and the growth of the maxilla and mandible.

4.- Bacterial plaque control and brushing: a brushing and plaque control program is routinely applied to all patients to avoid decalcifications, caries and periodontal diseases during and as a consequence of orthodontic treatment.

5.- Indirect technique: we routinely utilize this technique as a rapid and precise way to place fixed orthodontic appliances (braces).

6.- Use of the sandblaster: after taking of orthodontic appliances, we use an aluminum oxide jet spray to remove the remaining cement and to avoid damage to the enamel.  Afterwards the surfaces are polished with special rubber tips.

7.- Topical  fluoride applications: after installation and removal of appliances, topical fluoride is applied to fortify the dental enamel..

8.- Early treatment: when needed, orthopedic and functional treatments are performed in children, to correct osseous and growth problems, thus avoiding the worsening of malocclusions.

9.- Information system: all  patient clinical histories (records) along with their financial statement are computerized, which guarantees rapid and sure service.  Account statements are mailed periodically.
