Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom-made, virtually invisible aligners to straighten teeth without brackets or wires. This technology allows for comfortable, removable treatment tailored to individual smile goals. Patients in Overland Park and Olathe benefit from shorter appointments and predictable results through digital planning.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces offer durable, efficient correction for complex orthodontic issues. Smaller, lighter brackets improve comfort while maintaining effectiveness. Moon Orthodontics utilizes advanced wire technology to reduce treatment time and ensure precise tooth movement for patients of all ages.
Clear Braces
Clear braces provide aesthetic treatment with translucent ceramic brackets that blend with natural teeth. Ideal for older teens and adults seeking discretion without compromising effectiveness. These braces require careful maintenance but deliver reliable results for moderate orthodontic corrections.
Damon Brackets
Damon brackets use a slide mechanism to reduce friction and treatment duration. This system eliminates elastic ties, allowing faster adjustments and fewer office visits. Patients experience greater comfort and efficiency while achieving precise alignment and bite correction.
Pediatric Orthodontics
Early intervention addresses developmental issues in children aged 7-14. Phase I treatment guides jaw growth and creates space for permanent teeth. Moon Orthodontics focuses on preventing severe problems while making the experience positive and educational for young patients in Olathe and Overland Park.
