Services
Braces
Traditional metal braces and esthetic options like gold/champagne brackets provide effective tooth alignment solutions. Our practice uses advanced metal alloys for durability while maintaining comfort and aesthetics. Treatment includes personalized color choices for elastic ties, with regular adjustments to gradually achieve optimal alignment. This solution addresses crowding, spacing, and bite issues for patients seeking durable, cost-effective orthodontic correction.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
BPA-free plastic aligners offer a discreet alternative to traditional braces for teeth straightening. As an Elite Preferred Provider, we create customized treatment plans using 3D imaging technology to fabricate sequential aligners that gradually reposition teeth. Patients appreciate the removability for eating and cleaning, with treatment typically requiring 12-18 months for comprehensive cases while maintaining virtually invisible correction.
Kids Orthodontics
Specialized care for children starting at age 7, focusing on early detection and intervention. Digital x-rays and 3D scanning enable precise monitoring of dental development with minimal radiation exposure. Treatment may include space maintainers or limited braces to address developing issues, preventing more complex problems while ensuring proper jaw growth and permanent tooth eruption patterns.
Teens Orthodontics
Comprehensive treatment for ages 10-15 utilizing growth phases for optimal results. Options include traditional braces, clear aligners, and esthetic brackets to accommodate social concerns. The practice addresses common issues like crowding and malocclusions during peak development years, combining technical expertise with patient education to ensure treatment compliance and positive outcomes.
Adult Orthodontics
Specialized solutions for patients seeking treatment later in life, including 30% of our patient base. Services range from discreet braces and Invisalign to complex bite corrections requiring collaboration with dental specialists. Private treatment rooms and flexible scheduling accommodate professional lifestyles, with treatment plans addressing both aesthetic goals and functional improvements for long-term oral health.
