Straightening Smiles. Improving Function. Building Confidence.

A well-aligned smile is not just about aesthetics—it plays a vital role in oral health, speech, chewing efficiency, and long-term dental stability. At Dr. Shivani’s Dental & Aesthetic, we provide comprehensive orthodontic treatments for children, teenagers, and adults, helping patients achieve healthier, more confident smiles through personalized and evidence-based care.

Orthodontic treatment corrects irregularities in tooth position and jaw alignment, ensuring your teeth not only look good but function properly for years to come.

What Is Orthodontic Treatment?

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. Braces and aligners gently apply controlled pressure to move teeth into their ideal position over time. The result is a balanced bite, improved oral hygiene, and a naturally attractive smile.

Orthodontic care is beneficial at almost any age. While early evaluation in children helps guide jaw growth, adults can also achieve excellent results with modern orthodontic options that are more comfortable and discreet than ever before.

When Do You Need Braces?

Orthodontic treatment may be recommended if you experience:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Protruding front teeth
  • Difficulty in chewing or biting
  • Jaw pain or uneven bite
  • Speech issues related to tooth position
  • Frequent tooth wear due to improper alignment

Correcting these issues not only improves appearance but also reduces the risk of cavities, gum disease, and jaw problems in the long run.

Types of Orthodontic Treatments We Offer

At Dr. Shivani’s Dental & Aesthetic, we provide a range of orthodontic solutions to suit different needs, ages, and lifestyles:

1. Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are a reliable and effective option, especially for complex alignment issues. Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and highly efficient.

2. Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces function like metal braces but use tooth-colored or clear brackets, making them less noticeable. They are a popular choice among teenagers and adults who want a more aesthetic option.

3. Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are removable, transparent trays that gradually straighten teeth. They are discreet, comfortable, and ideal for adults and working professionals who prefer a nearly invisible orthodontic solution.

4. Orthodontic Treatment for Children

Early orthodontic assessment helps identify growth-related jaw problems and guides proper development, often reducing the need for more complex treatment later.

The Orthodontic Treatment Process

Orthodontic treatment at our clinic is carefully planned and customized:

  1. Initial Consultation & Evaluation
    We begin with a detailed examination, dental impressions or digital scans, and X-rays to assess tooth position, jaw alignment, and bite.
  2. Customized Treatment Plan
    Based on your dental needs and lifestyle, we recommend the most suitable orthodontic option and explain the expected duration, outcomes, and care requirements.
  3. Active Treatment Phase
    Braces or aligners are placed, and regular follow-up visits ensure controlled and comfortable tooth movement.
  4. Retention Phase
    After alignment is complete, retainers are provided to maintain results and prevent teeth from shifting back.

Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment

  • Improved smile aesthetics and confidence
  • Better chewing efficiency and speech
  • Easier oral hygiene and reduced risk of cavities
  • Balanced bite and jaw comfort
  • Long-term dental stability

Orthodontic correction is an investment in both appearance and oral health.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate, is one of the most frequent urological conditions affecting men, especially above the age of 50. As the prostate gland grows in size, it can begin to squeeze or block the urethra, leading to urinary problems that can significantly affect daily life. While BPH is not cancer and does not increase the risk of prostate cancer, the symptoms can be troubling and often require medical attention.

What is BPH?

BPH is the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. Over time, as the gland grows, it compresses the urethra—the tube that carries urine out of the body—leading to obstruction of urine flow. The exact cause of this enlargement is not known, but hormonal changes with age are believed to play a major role.

Common Symptoms of BPH

Men with BPH may experience one or many of the following symptoms:

  • Difficulty starting urination

  • Weak or interrupted urine stream

  • Frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia)

  • Sudden, urgent need to urinate

  • Incomplete emptying of the bladder

  • Dribbling at the end of urination

  • Burning sensation (if infection develops)

These symptoms may worsen over time, making early evaluation important.

Complications if Untreated

While BPH itself is not dangerous, prolonged obstruction can lead to:

  • Urinary tract infections

  • Acute urinary retention

  • Bladder stones

  • Kidney damage due to back pressure

  • Frequent hospital visits due to urinary problems

Seeking timely treatment prevents long-term complications.

Diagnosis

A complete evaluation includes:

  • Physical examination

  • Digital rectal exam (DRE)

  • Urine test

  • Ultrasound of kidneys and bladder

  • PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test

  • Uroflowmetry (measures urine flow)

These tests help determine the severity of enlargement and the right course of treatment.

Treatment Options for BPH

Treatment depends on the intensity of symptoms and overall health of the patient.

1. Lifestyle Modifications

  • Reducing caffeine and alcohol

  • Avoiding drinking water before bedtime

  • Regular exercise

  • Bladder training techniques

2. Medications

  • Alpha-blockers (relax prostate muscles for easier urine flow)

  • 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (shrink the prostate over time)

  • Combination therapy for better results

3. Minimally Invasive Procedures

These are preferred because of quick recovery and less pain:

  • TURP (Transurethral Resection of Prostate) – Gold standard treatment

  • Laser Prostate Surgery – Holmium/Thulium laser for bloodless removal

  • UroLift System – Lifts prostate tissue to open the urinary channel

  • Prostatic artery embolization

4. Surgical Options

For very large prostates or severe symptoms, open or robotic prostatectomy may be recommended.

Recovery and Prognosis

Most patients experience quick relief of symptoms after treatment. Minimally invasive procedures allow faster recovery, less bleeding, and reduced hospital stay.

  • Advanced diagnostic facilities
