For Lucio, orthodontics goes well beyond appliances and techniques: it's above all a meeting with each patient, a story of trust and shared smiles.
More Than a Smile: A Matter of Health
Proper alignment doesn't serve just aesthetics. It prevents premature enamel wear, makes brushing easier, and reduces joint tension that often causes headaches.

Your Clear Aligner Treatment Journey
From your first consultation to your final smile, here's exactly how your Invisalign® or clear aligner treatment works at our practice.
Initial Consultation
Complete examination of your teeth, jaw, and bite. Our orthodontist evaluates if clear aligners are right for your case. Photos and X-rays if needed. From 118 CHF.
30-45 minutes3D Scan & Treatment Plan
Digital 3D scan of your teeth (no messy impressions). We create a precise treatment simulation showing your teeth's movement from start to finish. You see your future smile before treatment begins.
ClinCheck® TechnologyCustom Aligner Fabrication
Your complete set of custom aligners is manufactured using SmartTrack® material. Each tray is precisely calibrated to move your teeth progressively toward their ideal position.
2-3 weeks manufacturingTreatment Start & Preparation
We place small tooth-colored attachments if needed for grip. If space is required, we may perform interproximal reduction (IPR/stripping) — a painless technique that removes 0.1-0.5mm of enamel between teeth to create space without extractions.
About Stripping (IPR): A common, safe orthodontic technique. Removes less than 0.5mm — your enamel is typically 2.5mm thick. No drilling, no pain, no effect on tooth health.
Wearing Your Aligners
Wear each aligner 20-22 hours/day, removing only for meals and brushing. Change to the next tray every 1-2 weeks as prescribed. Check-ups every 6-8 weeks to monitor progress.
6-18 months typical durationResults & Retention
Your new smile is complete! We provide retention trays (Vivera) to maintain your results long-term. Worn at night, they prevent teeth from shifting back to their original position.

The Power of Fixed Braces
For complex corrections requiring maximum control. Traditional braces with metal brackets remain the reference solution for severe cases: significant rotations, extractions needed, or jaw misalignments. Modern brackets are smaller, more comfortable, and offer unmatched precision.
Treats all malocclusions
Each tooth individually
Most economical option
Lingual Orthodontics: Invisible Braces Behind Your Teeth
Lingual braces (also called lingual orthodontics or invisible braces) are fixed brackets bonded to the inner surface of your teeth. The lingual arch — the wire connecting these brackets — guides tooth movement while remaining completely hidden from view.
Completely hidden behind teeth
Treats severe malocclusions
No compliance required
Brackets fit your teeth exactly
Ideal for: Adults in public-facing professions (actors, executives, teachers) who need invisible treatment but have complex cases unsuitable for clear aligners. Requires 1-2 weeks adaptation for speech.
Aligners or Braces: Which Treatment to Choose?
Choosing between clear aligners (Invisalign®) and traditional braces depends on your specific case. Here's a detailed comparison to help you decide between transparent aligners or fixed dental braces.
← Scroll to see full table →
✅Choose Clear Aligners If:
- Discretion is essential (professional life)
- Your case is mild to moderate
- You want removable appliance flexibility
- You prefer fewer orthodontist visits
✅Choose Fixed Braces If:
- Your case is complex (rotations, extractions)
- You prefer a fixed, "worry-free" solution
- Budget is a primary consideration
- Maximum precision is required
Other alternatives: Ceramic braces (tooth-colored brackets), lingual braces (invisible behind teeth). Our orthodontist will recommend the best option for your case during your consultation.
