Services
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces at Orthodontics of South Miami offer durable, effective teeth straightening with smaller, more comfortable brackets. Ideal for correcting complex alignment issues, these braces use precision wire adjustments to address gaps, overcrowding, and bite problems. Patients benefit from customizable colored elastics while achieving faster results compared to other treatments.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners provide a discreet alternative to traditional braces, using custom-fitted trays to gradually shift teeth. Suitable for adults and teens, this treatment eliminates dietary restrictions and simplifies oral hygiene. Our practice offers Angel Aligners and Invisalign, with treatment durations typically ranging from 9-15 months for optimal results.
Custom 3D-Printed Braces
LightForce clear braces utilize 3D printing technology to create personalized ceramic brackets that blend with natural teeth. This innovative approach reduces adjustment visits while improving comfort and treatment efficiency. The customized design ensures precise tooth movement for complex cases requiring aesthetic and functional correction.
Early Orthodontic Evaluation
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends initial evaluations by age seven to monitor jaw development and intercept potential issues. Our team identifies early signs of crowding, bite problems, or growth discrepancies, allowing timely intervention that may reduce future treatment complexity and duration.
Adult Orthodontics
Adult patients receive tailored solutions addressing age-related dental shifts, including discreet options like clear aligners and ceramic braces. We manage challenges such as gum health considerations and space maintenance for missing teeth, collaborating with dentists to ensure comprehensive oral rehabilitation and long-term stability.
