Services
Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct misalignment through durable stainless steel brackets and wires. Ideal for complex cases, these braces apply consistent pressure to shift teeth into proper position. Bigman Orthodontics uses modern, smaller brackets for enhanced comfort and aesthetics while maintaining superior effectiveness across all age groups.
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet, removable solution for straightening teeth without metal brackets. Custom-fitted trays gradually adjust alignment while allowing easy removal for eating and cleaning. This treatment suits teens and adults seeking aesthetic alternatives to traditional braces with proven effectiveness for moderate orthodontic issues.
Clear Braces
Ceramic braces blend with natural teeth using translucent brackets, providing a subtler option than metal braces. Effective for correcting gaps, crowding, and bites, they combine aesthetic appeal with reliable performance. Recommended for older teens and adults prioritizing discretion while achieving comprehensive alignment results.
TMJ Therapy
Specialized TMJ therapy addresses temporomandibular joint disorders through custom orthodontic interventions. Treatments include bite adjustments and oral appliances to alleviate pain, improve jaw function, and prevent further complications. Bigman Orthodontics employs targeted techniques to resolve chronic headaches, clicking, or discomfort associated with jaw misalignment.
Snoring Treatment
Custom oral appliances treat snoring and mild sleep apnea by repositioning the jaw to maintain airway patency. These non-invasive devices improve sleep quality through personalized fitting and adjustable designs. Bigman Orthodontics provides solutions that enhance comfort while addressing breathing disruptions during sleep.
