Services
Spark Aligners
Spark aligners are custom-made, removable trays that gradually straighten teeth using 3D imaging technology. These nearly invisible aligners offer a discreet alternative to traditional braces, allowing patients to maintain oral hygiene and dietary freedom. Ideal for mild to moderate orthodontic cases, Spark aligners require 18-30 sets over 9-15 months, with 22 hours of daily wear for optimal results.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces use sleek brackets and wires to correct complex dental issues like severe misalignment and bite problems. Attached with dental adhesive, these durable appliances apply consistent pressure to move teeth into proper positions. Treatment typically lasts 1-2 years, with color-coordinated elastic ties available for personalization.
Clear Braces
LightForce clear braces feature tooth-colored ceramic brackets that blend with natural teeth for a discreet appearance. Utilizing 3D-printed technology, these braces offer precise movement and stain resistance. They function similarly to metal braces but prioritize aesthetics, making them ideal for patients seeking less visible orthodontic treatment.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional whitening services use peroxide-based gels to break down surface and deep stains, lightening teeth effectively. Customized treatment plans address individual discoloration causes, from dietary habits to aging. The process enhances smiles post-orthodontic treatment or as a standalone cosmetic improvement, ensuring safe and lasting results.
Family Orthodontics
We provide age-specific orthodontic solutions for children, teens, and adults, including Phase 1 early intervention and adult discreet treatments. Our approach addresses developmental needs, bite correction, and aesthetic goals across all life stages. From preventive care to complex alignment, we ensure comfortable, tailored experiences for every family member.
