Crooked Teeth
Crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth aren't just a cosmetic concern — they can make cleaning difficult (increasing the risk of cavities and gum disease), cause jaw pain, and affect how you bite and chew. Many adults feel it's "too late" to straighten their teeth, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
How FaceLab Can Help
FaceLab offers a full range of orthodontic solutions led by Dr. Wathsala Samaraweera, our specialist orthodontist. Clear aligners are our core specialty — virtually invisible, removable trays that gradually move your teeth into alignment. We also offer ceramic braces, lingual braces, and traditional metal braces depending on your preference and case complexity. Treatment starts with a digital scan and 3D simulation so you can see your expected results before you begin.
