Services
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct severe teeth overcrowding and misalignment through controlled, incremental adjustments. Modern designs offer improved aesthetics with customizable color options for brackets and elastic bands. Non-removable appliances require professional maintenance while providing reliable results for complex orthodontic cases.
Clear Braces
Clear ceramic braces provide discreet orthodontic treatment using stain-resistant 3M Clarity brackets. These esthetic alternatives combine precise treatment control with visual subtlety, offering customized solutions that maintain aesthetic goals while achieving optimal dental alignment for discerning patients.
Aligners
Invisalign and 3M Clarity Aligners offer nearly invisible teeth straightening through custom sequential trays. Removable appliances allow normal eating habits while requiring 22-hour daily wear for effective gap correction and crowding elimination through digital treatment planning.
Phase I Treatment
Interceptive orthodontic treatment addresses developmental issues in mixed dentition patients. Corrects jaw growth discrepancies and dental problems before full orthodontic treatment, potentially reducing future treatment duration through strategic appliance use and growth modification.
Retainers
Custom removable retainers maintain dental alignment after orthodontic treatment. Stabilization period ensures surrounding tissues adapt to new positions, with personalized options available to meet individual patient needs for long-term smile preservation.
