The best for your child — braces at Eltz
Why Eltz

The best for your child

Children are close to our hearts. For many reasons, they deserve the best possible orthodontic treatment: for health reasons, for example to avoid surgery later on. For psychological reasons, so that they aren’t bullied at school. And, especially for teenagers, for aesthetic reasons too, so that they can develop healthy self-confidence.

Today, the best possible orthodontic treatment is treatment with invisible aligners — and the Eltz Institut is the pioneer of this treatment in Europe.

Orthodontic experience with children and teenagers

Experience is essential

When it comes to orthodontic treatment for children and teenagers in particular, however, orthodontic experience is essential. Besides knowing how to treat the misalignment of the teeth and jaw in the first place, future growth in these areas also has to be taken into account.

Without this know-how, the right age for treatment is often missed, or treatment is carried out with methods that are ineffective or even harmful. That’s why there are many reasons to choose treatment at the Eltz Institut.

Over 70 years of experience in orthodontics

Only specialist orthodontists, or doctors with comparable qualifications, work at the Eltz Institut. This matters in orthodontic treatment because, in addition to their specialist degree in dentistry, orthodontists have completed several years of further training to learn how to correct misaligned teeth and jaws.

We also focus exclusively on orthodontic treatment and don’t offer any other classic dental services such as fillings or tooth build-ups. Five orthodontists work at the Eltz Institut. Every week, our doctors analyse complex cases together. This way, the combined experience of over 70 years of orthodontics goes into every case.
