Services
Spark Clear Aligners
Spark clear aligners offer discreet tooth straightening using custom-fitted transparent plastic trays. These removable appliances allow normal eating and oral hygiene while gradually shifting teeth into proper alignment. Dr. Beim creates personalized treatment plans that typically require 18-30 aligner sets worn 22 hours daily for 9-15 months.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces provide aesthetic orthodontic treatment with tooth-colored brackets that blend with natural teeth. These self-ligating brackets reduce friction and treatment time while maintaining durability. Ideal for appearance-conscious patients seeking fixed appliance benefits without traditional metal visibility, particularly effective for complex alignment cases.
Damon Metal Braces
Modern Damon metal braces use advanced bracket technology for efficient tooth movement with reduced discomfort. The system's slide mechanism eliminates elastic ties, decreasing friction and appointment frequency. This treatment option works well for correcting severe misalignments and bite issues while maintaining cost-effectiveness compared to other orthodontic solutions.
Carriere Appliances
Carriere Distalizers address bite alignment issues before comprehensive orthodontic treatment. This appliance corrects posterior crossbites and jaw discrepancies by creating proper tooth positioning. The system works with existing braces to improve treatment efficiency and reduce overall appliance wear time for better functional and aesthetic outcomes.
Orthodontic Evaluations
Comprehensive orthodontic evaluations include digital imaging and treatment planning. The assessment identifies alignment issues, bite problems, and optimal treatment timing. Patients receive personalized recommendations for various orthodontic options during these free consultations, with immediate treatment initiation available for qualified candidates.

What orthodontic options are available for adults?
We offer Damon metal braces, ceramic braces, and Spark clear aligners for adults seeking discreet treatment options that fit professional lifestyles.
How does clear aligner treatment compare to traditional braces?
Clear aligners offer removable convenience with similar effectiveness for most cases, while traditional braces provide fixed treatment with potentially faster complex movement.
What payment options exist for orthodontic treatment?
We provide flexible payment plans, insurance coordination, and financing options to make orthodontic care accessible for Lake Mary families.
When should children receive their first orthodontic evaluation?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends evaluation by age seven to identify potential issues with jaw growth and emerging teeth.
How long does orthodontic treatment typically last?
Treatment duration varies from 9-22 months depending on complexity, with clear aligners averaging 9-15 months and traditional braces requiring 18-22 months.
What happens after braces removal?
Dr. Beim prescribes retainers to maintain alignment, with long-term nightly wear recommended to prevent natural tooth movement over time.
