Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. This treatment is ideal for patients seeking a nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces. Our orthodontists create personalized plans using 3D imaging to map gradual tooth movement over 9-15 months, with 18-30 aligner sets. Patients appreciate easier oral hygiene and the ability to eat without restrictions.
Damon Braces
Damon Braces employ a self-ligating system that reduces friction and discomfort. These metal braces use a sliding mechanism for gradual tooth movement, often requiring fewer adjustments. Treatment typically lasts 1-3 years, with lighter forces that minimize gum recession. Patients benefit from faster results and less mouth irritation compared to traditional braces.
Retainers
Custom retainers maintain teeth alignment post-treatment. We offer removable clear plastic retainers that are nearly invisible and easy to clean. Our orthodontists provide care instructions and schedule check-ups to ensure proper fit. Long-term wear is recommended to prevent natural tooth shifting, with many patients wearing retainers nightly indefinitely.
Clear Braces
Clear braces use stain-resistant ceramic brackets that blend with teeth. These fixed appliances are ideal for patients seeking a discreet option without compromising effectiveness. Treatment duration varies from 1-3 years, with regular adjustments to guide teeth into proper alignment while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
Orthodontic Consultations
Free initial consultations assess orthodontic needs using X-rays and 3D scans. Our orthodontists evaluate bite issues, crowding, and jaw alignment to recommend personalized solutions. This process includes discussing financial options and creating a step-by-step treatment plan tailored to each patient's lifestyle and goals.
