Services
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet, removable solution for straightening teeth. Using a series of custom-made aligners, this treatment gradually shifts teeth into optimal alignment without the visibility of traditional braces. Dr. Carrington's expertise as a Diamond Plus provider ensures precise, comfortable care tailored to your lifestyle.
Damon System
The Damon System uses tie-less brackets to reduce pressure on teeth, enabling faster, more comfortable movement. This innovative approach minimizes adjustment appointments while achieving superior results. Ideal for patients seeking efficient orthodontic treatment with enhanced comfort and aesthetics.
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces provide reliable, effective tooth movement for complex cases. Modern designs ensure greater comfort and reduced size compared to older models. Our team customizes treatment to correct misalignment, bite issues, and spacing concerns with proven results.
Pediatric Orthodontics
Early orthodontic intervention addresses developmental issues to prevent future complications. We offer Invisalign First and specialized appliances to guide jaw growth and create space for permanent teeth, ensuring optimal oral health and alignment from an early age.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional whitening solutions, including EverSmile White Foam, enhance your smile's appearance during orthodontic treatment. These products safely remove stains and discoloration, maintaining a confident, radiant look throughout your journey to a perfect smile.
