One of Dr. Deepak’s principal areas of interest is the orthodontic treatment of children and growing
patients.

Working within a practice environment with a strong focus on both pediatric dentistry and orthodontics has reinforced his belief in identifying developing orthodontic and dentofacial problems at an early age. Rather than waiting for growth to be completed, carefully selected patients may benefit from timely orthodontic and growth-guidance intervention.

His areas of particular clinical interest include:

• Early and interceptive orthodontic treatment
• Dentofacial growth assessment and modification
• Functional appliances
• Developing malocclusion in growing children
• Jaw and dental-arch development
• Bite correction during the growth phase
• Accelerated orthodontic treatment
• Digital orthodontic treatment planning
• Clear-aligner therapy for children, adolescents and adults

His objective is to use the growth potential of younger patients whenever clinically appropriate, helping guide the developing dentition and jaws and potentially reducing the complexity of future orthodontic treatment.

Dr. Deepak has a particular professional interest in the evolution of digital orthodontics and clear aligner treatment.

Recognising the rapid transformation of orthodontics through digital scanning, virtual treatment planning and advanced manufacturing, he established Aline Clear Aligner System in 2021, during the post-COVID period.

The vision behind Aline was straightforward: to make advanced, digitally driven orthodontic treatment more accessible and affordable without compromising clinical quality.

Aline was developed as an in-house clear-aligner system, bringing together clinical orthodontic expertise, digital treatment planning and dedicated laboratory manufacturing.

Since its establishment, the system has expanded across the Middle East and India and has been used in the treatment of more than 3,000 orthodontic patients.

The clear-aligner laboratory and digital production infrastructure are based in Dubai for the Middle East, with dedicated operations supporting the system in India.

Dr. Deepak remains closely involved in the clinical philosophy, treatment-planning protocols and continuing development of the Aline system, with particular emphasis on improving treatment predictability and expanding the range of orthodontic cases that can be effectively managed with clear aligners.

When Dr. Deepak began developing his clinical practices, one of his primary motivations was to create a different orthodontic experience for patients.

His vision was to combine specialist orthodontic expertise with the newest available technologies, increasingly digital workflows and a patient-centered treatment environment while maintaining treatment costs at levels that remain accessible to families.

This philosophy subsequently became one of the central principles behind both the Avance Dental Clinic Group and the Aline Clear Aligner System.

He believes that technological advancement in dentistry should ultimately benefit patients. Innovation is most meaningful when it can improve treatment efficiency, comfort and predictability while simultaneously making high-quality specialist care available to a broader population.

Beyond his clinical work, Dr. Deepak is the Founder and Managing Director of Avance Dental Clinic Group, where he has been actively involved in developing specialist-oriented dental practices with a particular emphasis on orthodontics and multidisciplinary dental care.

He is also the Founder of Aline Clear Aligner System, established with the vision of developing an advanced yet affordable clear-aligner solution originating from the Middle East and serving patients and dental professionals across the Middle East and India.

Through these ventures, his broader objective has been to develop a modern dental-care ecosystem in which specialist clinical expertise, digital technology, laboratory innovation and affordability work together.

Dr. Deepak Sharma is an esteemed member of:

• Indian Orthodontic Society
• Emirates Orthodontic Society
• American Association of Orthodontists

He has attended and presented at various professional conferences and scientific meetings across the globe, maintaining an active interest in developments in orthodontics, dentofacial orthopaedics, digital dentistry and clear-aligner technology.

Dr. Deepak’s continuing professional vision is to advance orthodontic care through the integration of specialist expertise, early intervention, digital orthodontics, functional treatment approaches and clear-aligner technology.

Whether treating a growing child requiring early orthodontic guidance, an adolescent undergoing comprehensive correction or an adult seeking discreet clear-aligner treatment, his approach remains centered on careful diagnosis, individualized treatment planning and clinically predictable outcomes.

Through Avance Dental Clinic Group and Aline Clear Aligner System, his long-term objective is to continue developing orthodontic care that is advanced, digitally driven, clinically effective and affordable, making contemporary specialist orthodontics accessible to an increasingly wider population.
