OrthodonticsInvisalign & Braces Scarborough

Orthodontics is the art and science of creating straight, healthy, beautiful smiles. At AF Dental in Scarborough, we offer the latest orthodontic solutions: Invisalign® clear aligners, traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces, and early interceptive treatment for children. Whether you’re 7 or 70, we can give you the confident smile you’ve always wanted — comfortably, predictably, and often faster than you think.
Crooked teeth are more than just cosmetic. They make brushing and flossing harder, which increases the risk of cavities, gum disease, and even premature tooth loss. Over time, misaligned bites cause uneven wear, jaw pain (TMJ), headaches, and speech difficulties. When the Canadian Association of Orthodontists surveyed adults, over 90% said they would choose straighter teeth if cost and appearance weren’t barriers. Today, with Invisalign and modern braces, those barriers are gone.
Crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites are the most common problems we correct every day. Two major factors influence tooth position: genetics and childhood habits (thumb-sucking, mouth-breathing, prolonged pacifier use). Early evaluation (around age 7) allows us to guide growth and often avoid extractions or surgery later. Adults now make up over 40% of orthodontic patients in Canada — proof that it’s never too late for a life-changing smile.

AF Dental was founded in the first place to create absolutely beautiful smiles for Scarborough community.

Why Choose Orthodontics at AF Dental Scarborough?

Your teeth are held in place by bone and gum tissue that constantly remodel. Gentle, continuous pressure from braces or aligners tells your body to move teeth safely into their ideal positions. The result: better function, easier hygiene, and a smile that lights up every room.Common reasons people finally decide to start treatment:
• Difficulty cleaning crowded or overlapping teeth
• Embarrassment when smiling in photos
• Jaw pain, clicking, or frequent headaches
• Speech issues (lisping, whistling on certain words)
• Preparing for a wedding, graduation, or new career

Invisalign® Clear AlignersVirtually Invisible Treatment

The world’s most advanced clear aligner system.

  • Custom-made, medical-grade plastic – no metal
  • Removable for eating, brushing, and special occasions
  • Change aligners every 1–2 weeks at home
  • Typically 6–24 months (often faster than traditional braces)
  • Perfect for teens and adults who want discreet treatment

Traditional & Clear Ceramic Braces

Sometimes the classic method is still the fastest and most predictable:

  • Metal braces – strong, affordable, fun coloured bands for kids/teens
  • Clear ceramic braces – tooth-coloured brackets that blend in
  • Self-ligating brackets (Damon® system) – shorter treatment time, fewer appointments

Children’s Orthodontics & Early Intervention (Phase 1)

We follow the Canadian Association of Orthodontists’ recommendation: first orthodontic check-up no later than age 7. Early treatment can:

  • Guide jaw growth
  • Create space for permanent teeth
  • Reduce or eliminate the need for future extractions
  • Correct harmful habits
