Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth without metal brackets. This option is ideal for patients seeking discreet treatment. Aligners are removable, allowing normal eating and oral hygiene. Treatment typically lasts 9-15 months with 18-30 aligner sets. Our Invisalign Diamond+ Provider, Dr. Yu, ensures precise planning for optimal results.
Clear Braces
Clear braces use tooth-colored brackets for a subtle appearance. They work similarly to metal braces but with enhanced aesthetics. Best suited for older teens and adults, these braces require careful maintenance to prevent staining. Our team provides detailed care instructions for lasting results.
Metal Braces
Damon Metal Braces offer efficient, cost-effective treatment using self-ligating technology. They reduce friction and appointment frequency, shortening treatment time. Ideal for complex cases, these braces are durable and suitable for all ages. We use advanced techniques to ensure comfort and effectiveness.
Early Orthodontic Evaluation
We recommend orthodontic screening by age 7 to identify potential issues early. Early intervention can prevent severe problems and reduce future treatment needs. Dr. Yu assesses jaw growth and emerging teeth to create timely, customized plans for children.
Adult Orthodontics
We address adult-specific concerns like teeth shifting and bite issues. Treatment options include discreet appliances to fit professional lifestyles. Orthodontic care improves oral health and confidence, with personalized plans to meet individual needs and goals.
