Services
TMJ Treatment
Our TMJ therapy focuses on correcting jaw alignment issues causing chronic pain. Using advanced diagnostics, we develop personalized treatment plans that address root causes like bite misalignment or airway obstruction. Patients experience lasting relief from headaches, jaw pain, and sleep disturbances through non-invasive orthodontic solutions.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom-made, removable trays. This option suits adults and teens seeking aesthetic alternatives to traditional braces. The treatment improves bite alignment while allowing normal oral hygiene routines and dietary freedom.
Airway Orthodontics
This specialized treatment addresses airway obstruction through orthodontic expansion techniques. By optimizing jaw development and nasal breathing patterns, we help patients improve sleep quality, energy levels, and cognitive function, particularly beneficial for children and athletes.
Lingual Braces
Lingual braces provide effective tooth alignment behind the teeth for a completely discreet appearance. These customized appliances suit professionals and image-conscious patients seeking traditional braces' effectiveness without visibility, requiring specialized placement by experienced orthodontists.
Braces for Adults
We offer tailored braces solutions for adult patients, addressing unique needs like periodontal health concerns and faster treatment expectations. Options include ceramic braces for aesthetics, self-ligating systems for efficiency, and comprehensive bite correction for long-term oral health improvements.

Report
I went to to see Dr Hakim for a 2nd opinion. And I am SO glad I went, as I had a first class service from start to finish. The entire team were so professional, kind and organized. Dr Hakim is so lovely that I would happily wear braces for the next 5 years, if I had to. And best of all the price I was given was far more reasonable than what I had been quoted elsewhere. I am definitely in safe hands and really looking forward to having the smile I have always wanted.

Dr. Hakim and his Daughter Dr. Hakim were extremely professional, kind and beyond patient. I took my 16 year old daughter in due to a complex situation. They spent quite a long time with us. The case was thoroughly reviewed and explained to us in the most professional and kind manner. Three other distinguished Doctors had seen the case and all deferred to Dr. Issac and Dr. Chantal Hakims solution. My daughter and I feel safe and well taken care of under their expertise.

Dr. Hakim has been our orthodontist for 8 years between both kids. He takes no shortcuts and takes meticulous care every stage of treatment. His office is as professional as you can hope for, and his staff kind and warm. His daughter Chantel has joined the practice and we are receiving the same high quality of care. We are grateful for OrthoSpaceship-Hakim Orthodontics!

A wonderful place to get your orthodontic work done, everyone is so friendly and lovely and makes what could be an otherwise unpleasant experience better and I love all the glowing planets and stars you get to stare at while they're are working on you.
