Services
Braces
Traditional metal and clear braces gradually align teeth using brackets and archwires. Ideal for correcting crowded teeth, gaps, and bite issues like overbite or crossbite. Our Thornton practice offers personalized adjustments every 6-8 weeks to ensure optimal progress toward a straighter, healthier smile.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Suitable for teens and adults seeking aesthetic alternatives to traditional braces. The treatment involves periodic aligner changes and digital planning to achieve precise tooth movement without compromising daily activities.
InBrace
InBrace features behind-the-teeth braces for invisible orthodontic correction. This option suits patients prioritizing aesthetics while addressing complex alignment issues. The system uses smartwire technology for continuous tooth movement, requiring fewer adjustments compared to traditional braces.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention addresses developing bite problems and jaw growth in children. This phase optimizes future treatment outcomes by guiding facial development and creating space for permanent teeth. We focus on minimizing future extractions or surgical needs through timely, gentle corrections.
iTero Scanner
The iTero intraoral scanner creates precise 3D digital impressions for treatment planning. This technology eliminates messy molds, enhances diagnostic accuracy, and allows real-time visualization of potential smile transformations. It streamlines the process for custom appliances like InBrace and clear aligners.
