Braces
Modern metal braces at Sexson Orthodontics deliver durable, effective treatment for smiles of all ages. These braces use stainless steel brackets and wires to gradually align teeth, offering a cost-effective solution with customizable options like colorful elastics. Designed for reliability, they address complex orthodontic issues while minimizing repairs. Patients benefit from decades of expertise and a personalized approach to treatment planning.
Clear Aligners
Spark clear aligners provide a nearly invisible, removable solution for straightening teeth without metal brackets. Custom-made trays apply gentle pressure to shift teeth into ideal positions, fitting seamlessly into daily routines. Ideal for minor to moderate alignment issues, this treatment combines discretion with advanced technology, requiring 22 hours of daily wear and regular progress checkups for optimal results.
Teeth Whitening
Opalescence Boost Whitening offers a quick, light-activated treatment to brighten smiles in under an hour. Using hydrogen peroxide gel with ACP and fluoride, it strengthens enamel while reducing sensitivity. The vegan, gluten-free formula ensures a gentle yet effective experience, with results maintained through proper oral care. This service provides immediate enhancement for patients seeking a radiant, confidence-boosting smile transformation.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention addresses jaw growth and tooth alignment in children, typically lasting 8-12 months. By correcting issues like overcrowding or bite problems at age seven, this treatment creates space for permanent teeth and prevents future complications. It combines developmental monitoring with proactive care, ensuring optimal oral health and reducing the need for extensive treatment later in a patient's orthodontic journey.
Retainers
Custom retainers maintain teeth alignment post-treatment, available in colorful, personalized designs. Patients receive guidance on proper care and wear schedules to ensure long-term results. These appliances adapt to individual lifestyles while preserving the investment in orthodontic treatment, combining functionality with creative expression through options like glitter or themed patterns.
