Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, virtually invisible aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. Our Burlington office provides personalized treatment plans using SmartTrack material for comfort and precision. Ideal for adults and teens seeking discreet orthodontic solutions, this service combines advanced technology with expert supervision to achieve optimal alignment and bite correction.
Metal Braces
Metal braces offer a reliable, cost-effective solution for correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. Our practice employs modern metal braces with improved design features for enhanced comfort and efficiency. Suitable for patients of all ages, this treatment addresses complex orthodontic issues while ensuring durable, long-lasting results under expert professional guidance.
Clear Braces
Clear braces provide a less visible alternative to traditional metal braces, featuring tooth-colored brackets that blend with natural teeth. This service caters to patients prioritizing aesthetics while maintaining the effectiveness of fixed orthodontic treatment. Regular adjustments ensure gradual alignment improvements, making it ideal for teens and adults seeking subtle correction options.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early orthodontic treatment addresses developing dental issues in children aged 7-10, guiding jaw growth and creating space for permanent teeth. This proactive approach reduces future treatment complexity through specialized appliances and monitoring. By intervening early, we establish foundations for proper alignment, functional bite development, and enhanced facial symmetry in growing patients.
iTero Element Scanning
iTero Element digital scanning replaces traditional impression materials with advanced 3D imaging technology for precise, comfortable treatment planning. This service captures detailed dental anatomy in minutes, enabling accurate Invisalign planning and orthodontic analysis. Patients benefit from immediate visual feedback and streamlined workflows that enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment customization.
