Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign uses custom, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for active lifestyles, they require 20-22 hours of daily wear and biweekly replacements. Patients appreciate their comfort and aesthetic appeal, with visible results often appearing within weeks.
Metal Braces
Durable stainless steel braces correct complex alignment issues efficiently. Modern designs reduce discomfort while maintaining strength. Treatment duration varies based on case complexity, with regular adjustments ensuring optimal progress toward a confident smile.
Clear Braces
Ceramic braces blend with natural teeth for a subtle appearance. While similar in function to metal braces, they require careful maintenance to prevent staining. Treatment typically lasts 12-36 months, depending on individual needs and case severity.
Same-Day Braces
Start orthodontic treatment immediately with same-day braces. This option eliminates wait times by combining initial exams and brace placement in one visit, accelerating the journey toward a corrected smile without compromising care quality.
Damon Self-Ligating Braces
Damon braces use a tie-less system to reduce friction and discomfort. Smaller brackets and fewer adjustment appointments make them a convenient choice. Patients experience faster tooth movement while maintaining precise control over alignment outcomes.
