Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign treatment offers a virtually invisible way to straighten teeth using custom-made clear aligners. This advanced system utilizes SmartTrack material for comfortable, effective tooth movement. Patients appreciate the convenience of removable aligners that allow normal eating and oral hygiene routines, with treatment typically requiring office visits every six weeks. This technology provides predictable results for various orthodontic issues.
Empower Self Ligating Braces
Empower Self Ligating Braces use innovative technology to move teeth more quickly and comfortably than traditional braces. This system eliminates elastic or metal ties, reducing irritation and plaque buildup. Brackets apply gentle forces for efficient tooth movement while maintaining patient comfort. Available in both metal and aesthetic ceramic options, these braces offer faster treatment times and fewer office visits compared to conventional systems.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
Dentofacial orthopedics focuses on guiding facial growth and development, primarily during childhood. This specialty addresses jaw alignment issues and facial asymmetries through specialized appliances. Early intervention can prevent more serious problems later, often reducing the need for surgical correction. Treatment may involve headgear, expanders, or other devices to create optimal conditions for proper dental development and facial aesthetics.
Orthodontic Emergencies
Our practice provides comprehensive emergency orthodontic care with 24/7 availability. We address urgent issues like broken brackets, poking wires, and loose appliances promptly. Our team understands that discomfort can occur at any time and maintains readiness to assist patients outside regular office hours. Emergency care focuses on symptom relief and maintaining treatment progress until regular appointments can address the issue comprehensively.
Teeth Alignment
Our comprehensive teeth alignment services address various orthodontic concerns from mild crowding to complex bite issues. Treatment options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and clear aligners to suit different patient needs. We correct spacing problems, overbites, underbites, and crossbites to improve both aesthetics and function. Each alignment plan considers long-term dental health and facial aesthetics for optimal outcomes.
