Dr. Shoff is a Northern California native and is excited to put his over 18 years of experience to work getting you the smile you have always dreamed of. A successful orthodontic result brings health and harmony to teeth, gums, jaws, and joints. Our smile is the first glimpse into our personality and is the most important first impression you can make.
With successful orthodontics, you can facilitate health, not only in and around your mouth, but also in your relationships. Our philosophy is that the timing of orthodontic treatments should be catered to the patient. Orthodontics is a long-term investment and the timing is as unique as the individuals we treat. It is as much of an art as it is a science.
In children, we have found that the vast majority can be treated efficiently in ONE WELL-TIMED phase when most of the permanent teeth have erupted. Observation appointments every 6 to 8 months, ensures that your child will begin at the most advantageous time. Research supports the idea that in most cases, there is no advantage of wearing braces twice.

Treatment Options
Report
We use a state of the art, self-ligating bracket made by the only American made orthodontic manufacturer.
Colors around each bracket can be added (but are not needed) as most kids enjoy this part of treatment.
Many adults and older kids prefer a less noticeable, more esthetic type of braces.
We use a clear type of brace that does not require elastic ties or stain, and will look great throughout treatment.
These braces work just as well as the metal ones.
Dr. Shoff is Invisalign certified and is happy to provide this completely invisible, clear alternative to braces.

Our Process
Report
We build your smile and bite much like an engineer would construct a bridge or skyscraper.
Careful planning on the front end of the process will allow for treatment to be as efficient for you as possible.
This appointment is all about information gathering.
We will begin with having you fill out a health history form and we will then take a complimentary x-ray (if you have not had a recent one taken) so Dr. Shoff can give his best assessment of you or your child's situation.
He will then conduct a thorough exam and talk about any treatment needs he sees, the appropriate timing for such treatment, and go over the treatment process with you.
