Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses a series of virtually invisible, removable aligners to straighten teeth without traditional braces. This technology employs 3D computer imaging to create customized treatment plans that gradually shift teeth into proper alignment. Patients appreciate the comfort and aesthetic advantages of Invisalign, which allows normal eating and oral hygiene routines while achieving desired results.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces utilize high-grade stainless steel brackets and archwires to effectively straighten teeth. These durable appliances offer precise tooth movement control and are available with optional colored elastics for personalization. Our practice provides comprehensive care for patients choosing this reliable, cost-effective orthodontic solution with regular adjustments and maintenance.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention addresses jaw growth and bite issues in children aged 7-9. This phase creates proper space for permanent teeth eruption and may prevent future extractions or surgery. We evaluate each child's unique needs to determine optimal timing and approach for interceptive orthodontic care.
iTero Digital Impressions
iTero digital impression technology replaces traditional putty molds with precise 3D imaging for more comfortable, accurate treatment planning. This system enables real-time visualization of teeth and bite relationships, improving diagnostic accuracy and patient understanding of their orthodontic journey.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics corrects severe jaw irregularities to improve function and facial aesthetics. This comprehensive treatment combines pre-surgical orthodontics with jaw repositioning procedures performed by oral surgeons. We coordinate care to ensure optimal alignment of teeth and jaws for lasting results.
