People of all ages, from 7 to 70, have much to gain from a healthy smile. Docbraces is pleased to help patients in Halifax, Dartmouth, Amherst, Moncton, Charlottetown and Summerside achieve bright, confident smiles with our advanced solutions—the most popular of which are Invisalign, clear braces and corrective appliances.

1. Invisalign

One of the most popular and high-tech solutions available at Docbraces is Invisalign. Invisalign is an exciting new technology for straightening teeth that uses clear, removable aligners that gently straighten your teeth. Many adult and teen patients favour Invisalign due to its comfort, convenience and discreteness. Because it is clear and uses no wires or brackets, it is almost invisible when worn. Aligners are also easy to remove for brushing and flossing.

Having helped over 300 patients achieve beautiful smiles with the product, Docbraces has been named an Elite Provider of Invisalign and Invisalign Teen, placing them in the top 5% of Invisalign providers in North America.

2. Clear Braces

Innovations in technology mean that braces today are more attractive and more comfortable than ever before, and Docbraces is pleased to offer a number of advanced, clear ceramic braces that are practically invisible.

Clear ceramic braces, including Radiance and the new Damon clear braces, are popular for adults and teens who want a brilliant smile without the brass and elastic look. They are almost invisible and allow your mouth to move comfortably and further eliminating discomfort. These types of braces use extremely gentle pressure to move teeth with incredible results, reducing treatment time so that you begin seeing dramatic improvement in a mere matter of weeks.

Not only do clear braces produce corrected bites and straight teeth, many clear braces varieties allow orthodontists to enhance facial aesthetics as well. Treatment can help guide broad and beautiful smiles and full support of their lips.

3. Corrective Appliances

Beyond Invisalign and braces, Docbraces helps patients achieve smile success with a range of corrective appliances like palate expanders and space maintainers. These appliances are often used with younger patients as they can be used to guide development, maintain or regain space for permanent teeth, correct poor oral habits, expand the upper arch or jaw, correct jaw alignment and more.

Docbraces also offers a range of discreet, comfortable retainer solutions and have replaced traditional retainers with new clear plastic retainers.

Getting Started

The Canadian Association of Orthodontists recommends all children receive an orthodontic check up by age 7, but it's never too late to improve your smile. No referral is required, and Docbraces is pleased to offer a wide range of flexible payment options to suit any budget.
