Services
Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct tooth alignment and bite issues using durable brackets and wires. Our experienced team customizes treatment plans for optimal results. Patients receive comprehensive care from placement through removal, with regular adjustments ensuring steady progress toward a perfect smile.
Aligners
Custom-made clear aligners offer a discreet alternative for straightening teeth without traditional brackets. These removable trays gradually shift teeth into proper position. We provide complete treatment planning and periodic adjustments to ensure alignment goals are met efficiently and comfortably.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
Specialized treatment guides facial growth and jaw development in children. Early intervention addresses disproportionate jaw relationships to prevent future complications. Our approach combines orthopedic appliances with comprehensive evaluation to create proper facial harmony and functional bite alignment.
Free Consultation
Complimentary first visits include thorough examination and treatment recommendations. Dr. Wright assesses individual needs and discusses available options during this private consultation. Patients receive honest assessments of treatment timing and requirements without any obligation or cost.
Retention Phase
Custom retainers maintain teeth alignment after braces removal. Regular follow-up appointments monitor retention success for one year post-treatment. We provide ongoing support to ensure lasting results, with retainer adjustments and replacement as needed during the critical stabilization period.
