Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth without brackets or wires. Ideal for adults and teens, it corrects misalignment discreetly. Patients wear each set of aligners for 1-2 weeks, gradually shifting teeth into position. Treatment duration varies but typically lasts 12-18 months, with check-ups every few weeks.
Clear Braces
Clear braces use tooth-colored brackets and wires for a subtle appearance. They are durable and effective for correcting moderate to severe misalignment. Treatment lasts 18-24 months on average, with adjustments every 4-6 weeks. Suitable for patients seeking aesthetics without compromising results.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Custom oral appliances treat obstructive sleep apnea by repositioning the jaw to keep airways open. Non-invasive alternatives to CPAP machines, these devices reduce snoring and improve sleep quality. Ideal for mild to moderate cases, with follow-up adjustments ensuring comfort and efficacy.
Teeth Whitening
In-office whitening brightens teeth by several shades in one hour using professional-grade bleach. The process includes gum protection and even application for uniform results. Lasting effects depend on oral hygiene and dietary habits, with touch-ups recommended every 6-12 months.
Child Braces
Early orthodontic intervention corrects bite issues and alignment in children. Options include traditional metal braces, mini-diamond braces, and palatal expanders. Treatment timing aligns with jaw growth phases, typically starting around age 7-10, to ensure optimal dental development.

Dr Irving and his team are amazing. I've had two kids receive braces/Invisalign here and for both the end result turned out fantastic. My youngest son's teeth were really crooked - the initial molds looked like a prehistoric fish jaw. I honestly was not sure how they could possibly be fixed - it almost looked like there weren't enough teeth for the space. But he is almost done with braces and his teeth look great now.
My older son has movie star teeth. When we sent out Christmas cards, we had relatives commenting on how great my oldest sons teeth looked. Seriously, Dr. Irving is phenomenal. We've had two great experiences and my third son is about to start his treatment. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Our dentist referred us to Dr.Bradley for ortho services for our teen. The process was so simple, fast and excellent service. Thank you Dr.Bradley and team for making the teeth straightening treatment such an easy and drama-free process! Our daughter loves her smile now.

My daughter picked Dr. Irving for our grandkids' orthodontia because he preferred to pull as few teeth as possible--the other orthodontist wanted to pull teeth, and that was not my daughter's preference. Dr. Irving and his entire staff have been wonderful. They are very easy to deal with--I know, since I'm the person taking the kids to their appointments and also sometimes I have had to change appointments. I have absolutely no complaints.
