Services
Braces
Traditional metal or clear braces correct misaligned teeth and jaw issues for patients of all ages. Our practice offers customized treatment plans using modern bracket systems and gentle archwires to ensure comfort during the straightening process. Regular adjustments every 4-8 weeks help achieve optimal alignment for improved oral function and aesthetics.
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners provide a discreet alternative to traditional braces for teens and adults. Using iTero digital scanning technology, we create precise 3D treatment plans with removable aligners that gradually shift teeth into proper position without affecting daily activities or appearance.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention for children aged 7-9 addresses jaw growth issues and bite problems before all permanent teeth erupt. This treatment creates space for incoming teeth, reduces future extraction needs, and corrects harmful oral habits to establish a foundation for long-term dental health.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase orthodontics combines early intervention with adolescent braces for complete bite correction. The first phase addresses skeletal development, while the second phase focuses on final tooth positioning, ensuring optimal results that adapt to natural facial growth patterns.
Digital X-rays
Digital X-rays provide high-resolution images with reduced radiation exposure for accurate diagnosis of tooth positioning and jaw development. This technology enables precise treatment planning and monitoring of orthodontic progress throughout the entire course of care.
