Services
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces at Hough Orthodontics use modern bracket systems and high-tech wires to correct misalignment efficiently. Customized for each patient, these braces apply gentle forces to straighten teeth and improve bite function. Ideal for patients seeking durable, cost-effective solutions with proven results.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer a discreet alternative to traditional braces, using custom-fitted trays to gradually shift teeth. Suitable for teens and adults, this treatment combines aesthetics with functionality, allowing easy removal for eating and cleaning while addressing complex alignment issues.
TMJ/TMD Treatment
Hough Orthodontics specializes in diagnosing and treating TMJ/TMD, addressing jaw pain, clicking, and bite imbalances. Treatment includes splints, orthodontic adjustments, and muscle therapy to restore harmony between jaw joints and muscles for lasting relief.
Retainers
Retainers ensure long-term stability after braces, preventing teeth from shifting back. Hough Orthodontics provides custom-fitted retainers, offering guidance on proper wear and maintenance to preserve your new smile indefinitely.
Free Consultation
We offer complimentary consultations to assess orthodontic needs, discuss treatment options, and answer questions. This no-obligation visit includes a thorough evaluation of bite, alignment, and jaw health to create a personalized care plan.
