Services
Phase I Treatment
Phase I Treatment focuses on interceptive orthodontic care for children, typically starting around age 7. This approach addresses jaw development, corrects harmful oral habits, and creates space for permanent teeth. By guiding facial growth early, we prevent severe issues and establish a foundation for optimal bite alignment.
Clear Aligners
Our clear aligner treatment offers a discreet, removable solution for straightening teeth in teens and adults. Custom-fitted trays gradually shift teeth into position with minimal disruption to daily life. Patients receive new aligners every two weeks and visit our office every 6-8 weeks for progress monitoring.
Adult Braces
Adult orthodontic treatment addresses misaligned teeth and bite issues for patients seeking improved oral health and aesthetics. We offer traditional metal braces with customizable color options and clear ceramic alternatives. Treatment plans consider unique adult dental needs while achieving lasting functional and cosmetic improvements.
Retainers
We provide customized retainers to maintain teeth alignment after braces removal. Options include Hawley retainers with metal wires and acrylic bases or clear Essix retainers resembling aligners. Our team emphasizes lifelong retainer use to preserve treatment results and prevent teeth shifting.
Emergency Orthodontic Care
Our practice offers emergency orthodontic services for broken appliances, loose brackets, or discomfort outside regular appointments. Patients receive prompt guidance through our dedicated emergency line and immediate in-office adjustments when necessary. This ensures treatment continuity and patient comfort during their orthodontic journey.
