BALANCE Treatment Concept - Comprehensive Orthodontics Hanover Dr. Entrup

BALANCE treatment concept

The Balance treatment concept is an innovative orthodontic therapy that we first defined in 1995. In an interdisciplinary approach, it combines the comprehensive expertise of dentistry and orthodontics with the findings of orthopaedics, general medicine and proven complementary healing methods such as applied kinesiology (AK), acupuncture, homeopathy and chiropractic. The aim of this comprehensive therapy is not just to eliminate symptoms, but to promote robust health and maximum physical performance. This means that the body’s functional systems are resistant to external influences that are often difficult to change.

Satisfied patients

"After about two years of successful treatment, I can recommend the practice and Dr. Jasper Entrup in particular without reservation! His expertise, professionalism and extremely friendly, approachable manner won me over from the very beginning and ensured that I always felt I was in the best of hands. The rest of the practice team that I got to know also do a great job. I'm very satisfied with the results of my treatment, so I'm sure that if I ever needed to have it done again in the future, I would entrust myself to Dr. Entrup and his team again."

Dr. Entrup is a luminary - an absolute professional in his field and a perfectionist. After having been treated by him myself and being extremely satisfied with the results, my daughter also went there. The treatment was very challenging, she had been to 2 other orthodontists before and we walked out completely satisfied with Dr. Entrup. Today was the final meeting and we are very happy to have made all the effort (including the long journey). We can definitely recommend Dr. Entrup, especially for complicated cases. Many thanks also to the practice team - and especially to Antje. She accompanied us both through the whole time with incredible empathy. A true angel and also a great professional. We are grateful that they were there ☺️

Many thanks to Dr. Altvater and great praise to the practice team. My son has been treated by Dr. Altvater since 2019. The treatment has now been successfully completed. My son's case was far more than complicated, but we trusted Dr. Altvater. The result is better than we expected.

Who would have thought that I would become an upright person again at the age of 64. The bite correction has actually improved and stabilized my posture in the long term. After 3 years of treatment, I can now play my favorite sport, volleyball, again and still do so with dedication. Dr. Altvater, presumably always driven by the worry of not being able to give his best, and especially Dr. Lange, who took on the painstaking craft work for my internal brackets in complete (external) calm and perfect craftsmanship, as well as the entire practice team in all professionalism, deserve my best thanks and recommendation.

I was impressed by the high standard of service I received at Dr. Entrup's practice. Dr. Entrup explained the procedure to me in great detail, so I was very satisfied and confident about my decision to go with Invisalign. The staff are highly professional and very welcoming. The practice is modern and furnished with great attention to detail to create a bright, welcoming and comfortable space for patients.

Incredibly good doctor! I can't remember a specialist ever taking so much time for an examination. He calmly and with a holistic approach tried to find out all the possible reasons for my complaints and to derive appropriate recommendations for action. Dr. Entrup Senior was very empathetic. The practice team also seemed very well organized and friendly. I am really very positively surprised and would not have thought that this kind of doctor still exists...

I had a long orthodontic history, from crossbite to open bite, where in the end my orthodontist at the time could no longer help me. We then came to Dr. Entrup Jr. on the basis of recommendations. Since then, I have received competent, friendly and, above all, holistic treatment. Due to the previously inadequate treatment by the previous doctors, we had to have jaw surgery. Here, too, we received excellent advice and the most advanced treatment methods, so that I am very satisfied with the result and was happy to accept a 1-hour drive during the treatment 🙂 Since then I have also been migraine-free and my sister has now also been successfully treated there. In short, a doctor/practice that can only be recommended

I was initially treated by another orthodontist. After wearing fixed braces for a long time, my orthodontist decided to remove them to complete my treatment. However, this decision did not seem sensible to me as I was not satisfied with the results. My parents decided to get a second opinion and found the BALANCE practice on the Internet. After a consultation, we were offered a treatment plan and switched to this practice. This was the best decision we could have made. I was very satisfied with everything throughout my treatment. I would like to thank the entire team for their excellent work, friendliness and reliability. I would especially like to thank Dr. T. Altvater and Dr. A. Lange, who guided my treatment. They always had an open ear for my wishes and answered all my questions.

FAQ: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Frequently asked questions about our orthodontic treatments

The Balance treatment concept is a holistic orthodontic procedure based on over 30 years of experience that combines modern orthodontic treatments with knowledge from orthopaedics, applied kinesiology (AK), general medicine, chiropractic and other complementary healing methods. The aim of our treatment method is to achieve a harmonious interaction of teeth, jaw and muscles, not only to achieve freedom from symptoms, but also to achieve a positive interaction with other parts of the body, especially the nervous system, in order to treat symptoms such as chronic headaches, disorders of the temporomandibular joint function, complaints of the back and the musculoskeletal system.

Due to our above-average proportion of adult patients, our practice specializes in both fixed and removable invisible treatment methods. In order to offer an aesthetically optimized solution for as many patients as possible with different wishes and requirements, but also depending on the treatment task, we have the possibility to offer a completely invisible treatment with brackets attached to the inside of the teeth, which already offers patients an improvement in their aesthetics during the ongoing treatment, as the treatment is completely invisible and largely independent on the inside of the teeth. Nowadays, modern orthodontic aligners offer the possibility of solving many treatment tasks that were previously only possible with fixed methods, including more complex treatment tasks, in a removable and almost invisible way. Transparent aligner pairs are produced that are barely visible. The teeth are gradually corrected with the individually manufactured splints, which are replaced every 10 – 14 days. They can be removed for eating and cleaning. See here: Lingual technique and Invisalign and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yap2SWabgIc&t=70s

Yes, in some cases we use digital 3D X-rays (DVT) for a gentle and detailed diagnosis. This low-radiation procedure offers advantages for long-term treatment success, as the high-resolution and precise CBCT images provide us with accurate and clear information about your oral and maxillofacial region, allowing us to create an optimized and individual treatment plan.

Orthodontic treatment for adults usually takes between 6 and 18 months, but of course depends on the individual findings. The average duration of treatment for children is between two and three years and is carried out in several phases and, if necessary, with different orthodontic appliances in order to activate a growth-oriented and gentle correction of the malocclusion. Do you also treat CMD – craniomandibular dysfunction – in your orthodontic practice in Hanover? Yes, the diagnosis and treatment of CMD is one of the main focuses of our practice. With the help of modern diagnostic methods and holistic treatment, we improve not only problems with the temporomandibular joints, but also craniosacral functions.
