Services
Orthodontics for Kids and Teens
Our early intervention and Phase 1/Phase 2 treatments address misalignment in children and teens, ensuring proper jaw development and reducing future treatment needs. We use space maintainers, traditional braces, and Invisalign Teen to guide permanent teeth into optimal positions. Our approach prioritizes comfort and education, helping young patients build lifelong oral health habits while achieving confident smiles.
Adult Braces
We offer discreet and efficient braces solutions for adults seeking to correct misalignment, overbites, or underbites. Traditional metal brackets and tooth-colored options provide flexibility for varying lifestyles and budgets. Treatment plans address oral health concerns like gum disease risk reduction while enhancing aesthetics, ensuring adults achieve functional, lasting results with minimal disruption to daily life.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom, removable aligners to straighten teeth without wires or brackets. Ideal for both adults and teens, this treatment corrects crowding, gaps, and bite issues with virtually invisible aligners. The iTero scanner creates precise 3D treatment plans, allowing patients to visualize progress and achieve results in as little as 10 trays, with options like blue dot technology for compliance tracking.
Emergency Orthodontics
We provide urgent care for broken brackets, loose wires, and retainer replacements, with 24/7 availability and same-day appointments. Our team ensures prompt resolution of discomfort or appliance damage, maintaining treatment progress and minimizing delays. Emergency services are tailored to both in-house and external patients requiring immediate orthodontic attention.
Itero Scanner
The iTero Element scanner creates high-resolution 3D images of teeth and gums in minutes, replacing traditional molds with a comfortable, efficient process. This technology enables precise treatment planning for braces and Invisalign, allowing patients to preview their expected results and ensuring accurate aligner or bracket placement for optimal outcomes.
