Dr. Farisha Mohammed: Your Specialist in Straightening Teeth and Aligning Jaws

Dr. Farisha is an experienced orthodontist. This means she’s a dental specialist who focuses on correcting how your teeth fit together and how your jaws align. She has successfully treated many different bite problems, including gaps between teeth, crowded teeth, overbites (Class II), underbites (Class III), issues with jaw growth, and cases that require jaw surgery (orthognathic surgical cases).

Dr. Farisha completed both her general dental degree (BDS) and her advanced specialist degree (MDS) in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics at YENEPOYA University in Mangalore, India, in 2015. Since 2022, she has been a valuable part of the dental department at Dr. Sirajudeen Medical Centre.

Areas of Expertise

Dr. Farisha offers a wide range of advanced orthodontic treatments to help you achieve a perfectly aligned smile and a healthy bite:

• Metal/Ceramic and Damon Self-Ligating Braces: Farisha provides various effective brace options to help you achieve a straighter smile. These include traditional braces (available in metal or discreet ceramic) and Damon Self-Ligating Braces, a modern system that can mean fewer appointments and potentially faster results.
• Invisalign & Invisalign First: Invisalign is a popular and discreet way to straighten teeth using a series of nearly invisible, custom-made, removable clear aligners. For younger patients, she also provides Invisalign First, a specialized version designed for children who are still growing.
• Myofunctional/Orthopedic Appliances: These are custom devices used, often in children, to correct abnormal muscle function or guide jaw growth to improve facial balance and create space for teeth.
• TADs and Skeletal Anchorage Systems: Tiny temporary implants (TADs) that act as anchors to help move teeth more precisely and efficiently, especially in complex cases.
• Preventive and Interceptive Orthodontic Appliances: These are devices used in younger patients to prevent more severe orthodontic problems from developing or to correct minor issues early on, potentially reducing the need for extensive treatment later.
• Retainers: After your braces or aligners come off, retainers are crucial. Dr. Farisha will provide you with a custom retainer to keep your teeth in their new, corrected positions, ensuring your beautiful results last a lifetime.
• Cosmetic Dentistry (Veneers): She also offers veneers, which are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance, correcting issues like discoloration, chips, or minor misalignments.
• Restorative Dentistry: While her specialty is orthodontics, Dr. Farisha also provides general restorative treatments to repair damaged or decayed teeth, ensuring overall oral health.
• Teeth Whitening: She offers professional teeth whitening treatments to brighten your smile, removing stains and discoloration for a more radiant look.
