Services
Child Orthodontics
Early orthodontic intervention for children addresses developmental issues like misalignment and bite irregularities. Our team specializes in creating customized treatment plans that guide jaw growth and ensure proper tooth eruption. We use child-friendly techniques and appliances such as palatal expanders to achieve optimal results while minimizing future treatment needs.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers a discreet alternative to traditional braces using custom-made, removable aligners. This treatment corrects mild to moderate misalignment and bite issues without metal brackets or wires. Patients appreciate the convenience of removing aligners for eating and cleaning, along with faster treatment times compared to conventional braces.
Smile Arc Technique
The Smile Arc Technique positions brackets higher on teeth to preserve natural smile curvature. This method prevents flat-looking results by aligning teeth with the lower lip's contour. Dr. Murphy's specialized training ensures patients achieve both functional improvements and aesthetically pleasing, full smiles.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery corrects severe jaw misalignments affecting function and appearance. Combined with orthodontic treatment, this procedure addresses issues like sleep apnea, chewing difficulties, and facial imbalances. Our team coordinates care with oral surgeons to deliver comprehensive solutions for improved oral health and confidence.
Airway Treatment
Airway-focused orthodontics addresses structural issues impacting breathing and sleep quality. We use palate expansion and collaborate with ENT specialists to treat conditions like sleep-disordered breathing. This interdisciplinary approach benefits both children and adults, enhancing overall health through improved airway function.
