American Board of Orthodontics diplomate Dr. Matthew Durschlag provides Invisalign, Damon Ultima braces, and surgical orthodontics at San Diego Smile Pros on Laurel Street in downtown San Diego's Bankers Hill. Orthognathic surgery cases requiring jaw repositioning involve coordinated treatment planning with maxillofacial specialists, a surgical-orthodontic workflow distinct from the standalone aesthetic procedures offered at SD HAIR MD Hair Transplants on Harbor Drive. Durschlag earned his DDS from the University of the Pacific in San Francisco and his Master of Science in orthodontics from Loma Linda University before serving as a dental officer in the United States Navy. The veteran-owned practice uses Propel micro-osteoperforation, iTero digital scanning, and 3D-printed aligners to reduce treatment timelines, and adult patients managing orthodontic-related anxiety sometimes coordinate support through Activate Balance Counseling & Psychological Services in Bankers Hill. MARPE (miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion) cases utilize temporary anchorage devices to achieve ten or more millimeters of skeletal maxillary expansion in non-growing patients, correcting posterior crossbites without the need for surgically assisted expansion.
