Services
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer a discreet solution for straightening teeth without interrupting daily life. These custom-fitted plastic trays gradually shift teeth into alignment through a series of sequential trays. Patients receive new aligners every 1-2 weeks while maintaining normal eating and oral hygiene routines. Treatment requires wearing aligners 20-22 hours daily for optimal results.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces use advanced bracket and wire technology to efficiently correct complex dental issues. This fixed appliance system applies gentle pressure to move teeth into proper alignment through regular adjustments. Treatment duration varies based on individual needs but often completes faster than alternative methods for severe misalignments.
LightForce Clear Braces
LightForce clear braces combine aesthetic appeal with effective tooth movement. These tooth-colored ceramic brackets blend naturally with teeth while maintaining the precision of traditional braces. Ideal for patients seeking less visible fixed orthodontic treatment, particularly teens and adults concerned about appearance during treatment.
Orthodontics for All Ages
We provide age-appropriate orthodontic solutions for children, teens, and adults. Early intervention options address developmental issues, while comprehensive treatments correct bite problems at any life stage. Our approach considers facial growth patterns and dental development to create lasting, functional smiles across generations.
Palatal Expanders
Palatal expanders create space for permanent teeth by gradually widening the upper jaw. This orthopedic appliance addresses crowding issues in growing children through nightly adjustments using a specialized key. Treatment typically lasts six months, improving dental alignment and potentially reducing future orthodontic needs while enhancing breathing and speech development.
