Dental & orthodontic care

Before any treatment, it is essential to fully understand your diagnosis and the options available. That is why Dr El Melali sees patients in English and French. Are you an expat, a student or working in Paris and looking for an English-speaking dentist in Paris ? Would you rather describe your needs in French, or are you accompanying a relative who is more comfortable in that language? The examination, explanations, treatment plan and follow-up take place in the language you choose. Having a bilingual dentist in Paris also helps bilingual families.

Orthodontics, teeth alignment & INVISALIGN®

Dr El Melali provides orthodontic treatment to correct misaligned teeth and jaw discrepancies. Teeth are aligned with fixed braces (brackets bonded to the teeth) or with invisible aligners, which are clear and removable. She also provides orthopedic correction of the jaws, in particular for growing children and teenagers. As an INVISALIGN® Full certified provider, she offers invisible aligners in Paris for kids and adults alike.

Who is it for?

In children, orofacial orthopedics and interceptive orthodontics support healthy jaw growth and make it possible to address certain discrepancies early. In teenagers, crowded or spaced teeth are common reasons for a consultation. In adults, treatment can realign teeth that have shifted over time.

What to expect from invisible aligner treatment

Consultation: clinical examination, discussion of your expectations, X-rays and a written quote.
Orthodontic assessment: digital scan, photographs and X-rays.
Orthodontic appliance fitting: In this appointment, the dentist gives the patient a series of aligners or does the bonding of the braces.
Follow-up: regular check-ups monitor progress and allow the treatment to be adjusted.
Retention: once the treatment is complete, the retention of the result is maintained by a retainer (to wear at night) or a thin fixed wire behind the teeth.

General dentistry

Alongside orthodontics, Dr El Melali provides routine dental care: check-ups, scaling, treatment of cavities and gum care. With training in surgical periodontics, she also treats gum inflammation and periodontitis. This all-round care matters in orthodontics: teeth and gums must be healthy before an orthodontic appliance is fitted, and thorough oral hygiene remains important throughout the whole treatment. Other treatments available at the practice are described in the Dental Care section of the website.
