Los Angeles Orthodontist
Welcome to Cosmetic Braces by Los Angeles orthodontist, Dr.
Sid Molayem. We service the greater Los Angeles area with offices
in both Beverly Hills and Encino. Orthodontic
treatment is the best way to perfect your smile, bring your
teeth into harmony and correct any functional problems with
your bite. Many people think that dental
braces are only for teenagers,
but actually many adults are
turning to Dr. Molayem to straighten their teeth. If you're
looking for an Invisalign
dentist or a Damon
bracket dentist, we've got you covered! Our cosmetic dentist
can correct the teeth of children
as young as seven years old who need to get braces in order
to prevent bigger problems in the future. Dental braces are
for everyone, children, teens and adults.

Straight teeth are important for several reasons, not just cosmetic
ones. We all want a beautiful smile and having straight front
teeth is a key factor in a beautiful smile. But straight teeth
are also important for proper health and function. Our orthodontist
will not only give you a beautiful smile, he will also address
your bite. If your teeth do not bite properly, you can crack
or chip the crown (the part of the tooth that you can see) or
even destroy the bone that supports the tooth. Common
orthodontic problems that we treat are: over-bite, under-bite,
crowding, big spaces, over-jet, open-bite and bottom teeth that
are too forward (class III). Oral hygiene is also improved when
the teeth are straight because crooked and overlapping teeth
are harbors for plaque and bacteria.

Metal braces are the gold standard in orthodontic treatment,
but aren't the only option to straighten your teeth. Dr.
Molayem and his orthodontic staff, with locations in Los
Angeles, offer several different treatments to perfect
your smile without the obvious metal showing. Clear
braces use brackets that are tooth colored to hold
the wire and move your teeth. Invisalign
"invisible" braces uses a series of clear
plastic trays to move your teeth. |
Children often need to visit our orthodontist to break habits.
Dr. Molayem will provide custom
appliances that can prevent a child from such habits as
thumb-sucking or tongue
thrusting. Other children may need to combine dental braces
with orthognathic surgery to move the jaw forward or backward.
This type of dental treatment needs to begin early and is in
cooperation with an oral surgeon. Another treatment that young
children may need is to force the eruption
of a tooth that would otherwise stay inside the bone.
Dr. Molayem and his staff understand that every patient is unique,
with individual needs. The orthodontic treatments and braces
we provide begin with our appreciation of your time, and we
strive to make sure our service is always prompt and focused
on you. You may not notice all of our skills, but you can't
help noticing our friendly service and attention to detail.
We welcome even the fussiest patients, and we can confidently
handle the most fearful children as easily as the most experienced
adult. Our goal is to make every visit a good one, and we do
everything we can to ensure that your decision to choose us
is one you're delighted with.
