dr Mailis Peets
Orthodontist
Introduction
My professional interests focus on more complex orthodontic cases, including malocclusions, open bites, and orthognathic surgery planning and collaboration with surgeons. I am particularly interested in biomechanics, the use of mini-implants for anchorage, and modern finishing techniques. I have further developed my expertise through international courses in the Damon system, skeletal anchorage, aesthetic orthodontics for adults, and precision finishing in orthodontic treatment.
