Straight teeth, sound bites.
Orthodontics at MDS Dental is planned and delivered by a specialist orthodontist. That matters most in the cases other clinics refer away: buried canines, skeletal problems, and adults with complex bites.
MDS Dental Care & Orthodontics in Badlapur offers specialist orthodontic treatment by Dr. Mukund D. Sawant, MDS (Orthodontics) from PGIMER Chandigarh. Treatments include self-ligating braces, clear aligners, impacted canine alignment, skeletal anchorage with mini-screws, rapid maxillary expansion, fixed functional appliances and early orthopedic growth modification.
Digital 3D scan
An intraoral scan maps every tooth in minutes. No messy impressions, and a precise model to plan from.

Each bracket closes over the wire with its own clip. No elastic ties, lower friction, cleaner teeth.
Light, continuous force
Super-elastic wires guide crowded and rotated teeth into a balanced arch, step by measured step.
3D-printed aligners
Prefer invisible? Every stage of your plan is 3D-printed and formed into a clear aligner, designed by an orthodontist.

Orthodontics FAQ
What is the best age for an orthodontic check?
By age 7. Most children will not need treatment yet, but problems like crossbites, underbites and impacted canines are easier to manage when caught early.
Braces or aligners: which is better?
Both work well when planned by an orthodontist. Braces are fixed and handle any movement; aligners are removable and discreet but need 22 hours of daily wear. We recommend based on your teeth, bite and lifestyle.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Simple cases can finish in 6 to 12 months; most comprehensive cases take 12 to 24 months; complex cases such as impacted canines may take longer.
Do I need teeth removed for braces?
Not always. Expansion, skeletal anchorage and careful planning can avoid extractions in many cases. Sometimes extractions give the most stable and attractive result, and we will explain why.
