Our Vancouver orthodontists are specialists in braces, Invisalign and orthodontic treatments that provide a lasting solution for misaligned teeth, crowded teeth, overbite, underbite and other dental issues.
Our goal is to achieve the highest level of patient health and satisfaction, and contribute positively to our community.
Below are the 4 pillars we build our practice around.
Highly complex cases involve multiple overlapping issues such as severe crowding, jaw misalignment, or impacted teeth, making correction more challenging than typical orthodontic problems. These cases require advanced planning and specialized treatment to restore proper bite and facial balance.
Our highly experienced and specially trained orthodontists are available to work together on any possible complex conditions. From smile makeovers, to dental sleep medicine, head and neck pain therapy, and even botox treatments, we combine our expertise from different fields of specialties to provide the most comprehensive patient care possible.>
We take pride in providing the highest quality orthodontic solutions for achieving beautiful smiles. From Invisalign to ceramic brackets, lingual braces, and botox treatments, we are focused on delivering long lasting and effective cosmetic results for our patients at an affordable cost. Book a consultation today to see what we can do for your smile!
Orthodontic technology has improved drastically over the years and we are proud to use the most cutting edge and advanced technologies in our clinics. 3D Printed braces, iTero scanners and Cold Laser Therapy are some of the newest technologies that we actively invest in that improve patient outcomes. Come and see for yourself just how special this technology is.
As leading orthodontics experts, the PacificWest Dental Group team offers various services. We foster a welcoming environment to help you and your family feel at home at our office. Our wealth of experience makes fixing problems with your teeth as easy as possible for you. We want each patient to walk out of our offices with an amazing smile and newfound confidence. Let’s review our treatment options.
Invisalign is an effective way to straighten your teeth. Instead of using metal wires and brackets (like normal braces), Invisalign is a piece of clear plastic that you would wear to straighten your teeth.
At PacificWest, we offer a range of braces and recommend the best option for your needs. Led by Dr. Cheng Lun Wang, we’ve been providing orthodontic care in the Lower Mainland for decades.
Lingual braces are hidden behind the teeth, making them invisible when you smile. The term “lingual” refers to the tongue side, or the inner surface of the teeth.
The iTero scanner lets us create a precise 3D digital image of your teeth and gums—no messy impressions, bad taste, or discomfort.
Other Treatments
TMJ pain can decrease quality and enjoyment of life. There is now a revolutionary therapy that combines advanced dentistry with sports medicine techniques to relieve the discomfort of TMJ
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a health condition where a person’s breathing slows down or stops for short periods during sleep. It is a common issue that affects millions of adults in North America.
Dysport is an injection that reduces wrinkles by using botulinum toxin to temporarily relax facial muscles and smooth the skin by blocking nerve signals.
Every patient is unique and has their own individual needs. There are various types of malocclusion that our clinic staff treat on a regular basis. Here are some of the issues that appointments with our team can remedy.
Crowded teeth or overcrowding occurs when the jaw bone is too small for teeth to grow straight into the mouth. It causes teeth to rotate and overlap against each other to fit in. The result is crookedness and misalignment.
The teeth must be a certain shape and size to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. If a tooth doesn’t fit properly, it can cause issues. Dr. Wang and Dr. Lee understand how to address this issue. Invisalign braces are a great treatment option.
An open bite happens when the front upper and lower teeth slant outwardly. It stops them from touching one another when the patient bites down. At PacificWest Dental Group, our staff understands how to correct bite issues using Invisalign braces.
Underbite occurs when the teeth along the lower jaw protrude out farther than the upper front teeth. It happens because of incorrect jaw alignment. With our expertise in dentistry, Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang can help you with orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign.
When the upper jaw and teeth extend too far over the teeth on the lower jaw, resulting in the appearance of a protrusive upper lip and teeth, or buck teeth, overbite is the culprit. The issue is common and can be addressed with Invisalign. Consult with Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang to find the right option for you.
A cross bite is present when a tooth or several teeth are too close to the cheek or tongue. It prevents the teeth from biting against each other normally, making it harder to chew. Everyone, from teens to adults, can have this bite issue. During your consultation appointment with Dr. Lee or Dr. Wang at our Surrey office, you can learn about various treatment options, including Invisalign, which is quickly growing in popularity.
When there’s too much overlapping between the top and bottom front teeth, a deep bite occurs. Patients might not even realize they have a deep bite until they book their first appointment. That’s what Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang are here for. As experts in orthodontics, our staff focuses on making patients feel comfortable and safe during their appointment.
