"Straight teeth not only guarantee a beautiful smile, but also facilitate proper oral hygiene care and also improve the quality of chewing. If you want to improve your appearance by taking care of the aesthetics of your smile or curing a malocclusion - braces are a very good solution."

Methods
- Pitts21 – a patented bracket system providing exceptional control of anterior teeth while giving freedom of movement of premolar teeth. It is the first and only self-ligating bracket system that gives early 3D control. The revolutionary system uses 30%-40% less forces, maintaining significantly higher treatment efficiency and ensuring high patient comfort.
- Iconix - modern white gold brackets providing the durability of traditional metal brackets combined with the aesthetics of white gold, gold arches and ligatures provide a high level of aesthetics. The brackets are refined with zirconium oxide which ensures that the colour does not wear or peel off. Braces with Iconix brackets are fitted in the same way as traditional braces. What is more, it is durable, does not crumble and does not require any additional treatment from the patient.
- SAP (Smile Arc Protection) - a technique developed by Tom Pitts, is a way of achieving the effect of a natural smile. The brackets are applied high up, according to a special pattern, which results in a "Hollywood Smile" effect. An additional benefit for the patient is that the appliance remains invisible. It is hidden high under the upper lip.
