Orthodontics
Class II bite corrected with anchorage mini-implants
A Class II malocclusion corrected with orthodontics anchored on mini-implants, without orthognathic surgery.
Braces
Braces with an orthodontist on the team and check-ups every 4 to 6 weeks right here, no travel to another city. For children, teens and adults.
How the treatment works.
At the evaluation we check the bite and, with X-rays and photos, build the plan: what will move, how long it will take and the total cost. Most cases run 18 to 30 months; at the end you wear a retainer so nothing shifts back.
Payment is split into installments over the treatment, arranged at the clinic. If you live in Copán Ruinas or Cabañas, check-ups are scheduled so each one fits in a single trip.
Ask about braces if
- Crowded teeth or gaps
- Your bite doesn't close well or your jaw gets tired
- Your child is 7 or older and you want a first check-up
- You want to align your smile as an adult
- You wear down your teeth or bite your cheek

What we get asked most.
Do you offer braces in Santa Rita?
Yes — our team includes an orthodontist for braces and teeth alignment, with check-ups at the same clinic in Santa Rita de Copán, no travel to another city needed. Book an orthodontic evaluation and we will explain the plan and estimated time for your case.
How does the Santos Dental payment plan work?
We offer installment plans for treatments such as implants, braces and root canals, arranged directly at the clinic for your case. From the patient portal you can check your balance and payments anytime.
How long do you wear braces?
Between 18 and 30 months in most cases, with a check-up every 4 to 6 weeks at the same clinic in Santa Rita. Afterwards you wear a retainer so the teeth do not shift back. The exact time depends on your bite; at the orthodontic evaluation we give you the plan and the estimate for your case.
At what age can you get braces?
At any age: for children, a first orthodontic check-up is recommended around age 7, and treatment usually starts between 11 and 14, once the permanent molars are in. For adults braces work just as well, only the movement is a little slower. Book an orthodontic evaluation and we will tell you the best time.
