Services
Damon Braces
Damon Braces offer an innovative orthodontic solution with tie-less brackets that reduce pressure and discomfort. This technology enables faster treatment times with fewer adjustments while achieving optimal tooth alignment. Our certified specialists utilize light biologically-sensible forces to create full, natural smiles while maintaining facial harmony through advanced orthodontic techniques.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, removable plastic aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. This discreet solution is ideal for adults and teens seeking aesthetic alternatives while maintaining normal eating and oral hygiene routines. Treatment typically lasts 12-18 months with bi-monthly checkups and customized virtual treatment planning.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics addresses severe jaw abnormalities and complex bite issues requiring combined orthodontic and surgical intervention. Our specialists coordinate with oral surgeons to correct developmental issues affecting dental alignment and facial structure, typically performed after jaw growth completion at ages 16-18 for lasting functional and aesthetic improvements.
Early Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention for children aged 7-11 addresses developmental dental issues before all permanent teeth erupt. Treatment focuses on correcting jaw width discrepancies, creating space for crowded teeth, and eliminating harmful oral habits to prevent future complications and potential surgical needs.
Invisalign Teen
Invisalign Teen offers removable clear aligners specifically designed for adolescents' lifestyles. The treatment includes eruption tabs for growing teeth and compliance indicators to track wear time. With average treatment durations of 9-15 months and 18-30 aligner sets, teens can maintain normal activities while achieving optimal dental alignment.
