Dr Dana is passionate about Orthodontics and helps patients of all the ages to achieve their optimal healthy smiles. She appreciates the significant effect well-aligned teeth can have on personality development in children and the increased self-esteem that goes with it. She works with her kid and adult patients to address their points of concern to create healthy, beautiful smiles.
She sees patients of all ages, starting from 7 years to adult age and helps them align their teeth and adjust their bite. Although, the improvement in facial and dental appearance is a major motivational factor for adults to seek orthodontic treatment, there are many health-related benefits to orthodontic treatment. Some of these benefits include reduced susceptibility to dental caries, periodontal disease, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, and prevention of progressive traumatic dental injury.
In the case of children, as genetics play an important role in the structural skeletal pattern of the face, Dr Dana advises parents to bring their children for an orthodontic consult as early as 7 years of age, the recommended age by the World Health Organization.
