Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment at Petrous Orthodontics offers a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional braces. Our board-certified specialists use advanced digital planning to create customized clear aligners that gradually shift teeth into perfect alignment. Patients appreciate the convenience of removable trays and weekly virtual check-ins, with treatment typically completing 4-6 months faster than average. The process includes regular progress tracking and personalized adjustments to ensure optimal results.
Braces
Our comprehensive braces treatment combines modern technology with proven orthodontic techniques. Available in multiple styles including metal, ceramic, and lingual options, our specialists tailor bracket placement and wire adjustments to each patient's unique needs. The treatment addresses complex alignment issues while maintaining comfort through regular adjustments and digital monitoring. Patients benefit from our expertise in both traditional and self-ligating bracket systems for maximum efficiency.
Adult Orthodontics
Specialized orthodontic solutions designed for adult patients seeking improved dental alignment and bite function. Our approach considers mature bone structure and lifestyle needs, offering discreet options like clear brackets and Invisalign. Treatment plans often integrate with existing dental work while addressing age-related concerns such as gum health. The process focuses on achieving both aesthetic improvements and long-term oral health benefits through precise, conservative interventions.
Early Prevention
Proactive orthodontic care for children focusing on early intervention when necessary. Our specialists evaluate developing dentition to identify potential issues, implementing conservative treatments only when beneficial. The approach emphasizes monitoring growth patterns and creating space for permanent teeth, with most patients not requiring early treatment. When intervention is needed, we use gentle, child-friendly appliances to guide jaw development and prevent future complications.
Surgical Orthodontics
Comprehensive treatment for complex jaw alignment issues requiring surgical correction. Our specialists coordinate with oral surgeons to develop integrated treatment plans addressing severe bite problems and facial asymmetry. The process involves pre-surgical orthodontic preparation followed by post-surgical alignment refinement. Patients benefit from our experience in managing complex cases and our focus on achieving both functional improvements and aesthetic harmony.
