Invisalign
Invisalign uses virtually invisible, removable aligners to straighten teeth comfortably for all ages. The treatment involves customized SmartTrack material trays that shift teeth gradually, allowing normal eating and oral hygiene. Patients receive a series of aligners, changing them weekly for optimal results. Murdock Orthodontics employs iTero scanning to create precise 3D treatment plans, ensuring predictable outcomes while maintaining patient comfort and convenience.
Traditional Metal Braces
Modern metal braces utilize high-grade stainless steel brackets and archwires to correct tooth alignment. Patients can personalize their treatment with colored elastics. This proven method effectively addresses complex orthodontic issues through regular adjustments. Murdock Orthodontics combines this traditional approach with contemporary techniques to minimize treatment duration while maximizing comfort and effectiveness for both children and adults.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
Early intervention for children aged 7-9 corrects jaw growth and bite issues before permanent teeth erupt. This phase creates space for incoming teeth, potentially avoiding extractions or surgery later. Using methods like palatal expanders and Invisalign First, the practice guides dental development to simplify future orthodontic needs. Treatment focuses on correcting crossbites, underbites, and crowding through gentle, growth-oriented techniques.
iTero Digital Impressions
iTero technology creates precise 3D digital models of teeth without traditional putty impressions. The system enables real-time visualization of treatment outcomes and accurate aligner fabrication. Patients benefit from faster appointments and immediate feedback on their smile transformation. This technology enhances diagnostic accuracy while streamlining treatment planning for both orthodontists and patients.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics combines braces with jaw surgery to correct severe skeletal discrepancies. This approach addresses functional issues like improper bites and sleep apnea while improving facial aesthetics. Treatment involves pre-surgical orthodontic preparation followed by post-surgical alignment. Murdock Orthodontics coordinates with oral surgeons to ensure comprehensive care for complex cases requiring structural jaw adjustments.
