Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made clear aligners to gradually reposition teeth without metal brackets or wires. These removable appliances offer discreet correction for mild to moderate misalignment while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene. Patients wear each set for 1-2 weeks, with treatment typically lasting 12-16 months under our orthodontist's supervision.
Metal Braces
Metal braces employ stainless steel brackets and wires to correct various orthodontic issues from mild to severe cases. This proven treatment option provides precise tooth movement control and remains the most cost-effective solution. Treatment duration averages 1.5-2 years with monthly adjustments at our practice.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces feature tooth-colored brackets and wires for less visible orthodontic treatment. These durable appliances combine aesthetic benefits with effective tooth movement capabilities. They require similar treatment time as metal braces while offering enhanced cosmetic appeal for teens and adults.
Expanders
Orthodontic expanders correct narrow jaws by gradually widening the upper palate to create proper tooth alignment. This early intervention treatment prevents future extractions or surgeries while improving bite relationships. Our team specializes in guiding jaw development for optimal facial symmetry and function.
Retainers
Retainers maintain teeth positions after braces removal through fixed or removable appliances. We provide customized solutions including clear plastic retainers and Hawley retainers to ensure long-term stability. Proper retention prevents relapse and preserves your investment in orthodontic treatment.
