Our Philosophy
At our practice, we believe that every patient is a unique individual who deserves personalized attention and care. Our experienced and compassionate team is dedicated to providing a relaxed and friendly environment that makes our patients feel at ease. We understand the importance of orthodontic treatment in improving not only the aesthetics of a patient's smile but also the overall health and well-being.
Treatment Options
We offer a range of treatment options to suit the unique needs of each patient. Our treatment plans are designed to address the specific issues and concerns of each patient, whether it's a child undergoing early interceptive treatment or an adult seeking to improve the alignment of their teeth.
Early Treatment
Our office specializes in providing early interceptive treatment for children aged 7-10. This type of treatment aims to intercept moderate or severe orthodontic problems early on, reducing the risk of more complex treatment later on. Our experienced orthodontist, Dr. Morrill, takes a thorough approach to assess each patient's unique needs and creates a personalized treatment plan to address any issues, such as crowding, crossbites, and protruding teeth.
Phase I and Phase II Treatment
Phase I treatment, also known as interceptive treatment, typically begins when a child has most of their baby teeth and a few of their permanent front incisors. The goal of Phase I treatment is to intercept a moderate or severe orthodontic problem early on to reduce or eliminate it. This stage of treatment helps prepare the jaw and teeth for the permanent dentition, making future treatment easier and more effective.
Phase II treatment usually occurs a number of years later, typically between the ages of 11-13. During this stage, Dr. Morrill works to achieve an ideal occlusion (bite) with all of the permanent teeth. This stage of treatment aims to correct any remaining issues and ensure a stable, healthy smile.
Adult Treatment
As an adult, you may be seeking orthodontic treatment to improve the alignment of your teeth, improve your oral health, or address issues related to snoring and sleep apnea. We offer a range of adult treatment options, including full or comprehensive orthodontic treatment, which can be completed on a part-time schedule to accommodate your busy lifestyle.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
We also treat patients with snoring and sleep apnea issues. Our experienced team works with patients to identify the root causes of these issues and develops personalized treatment plans to address them. Whether it's adjusting the alignment of the teeth or developing a customized appliance, our goal is to improve the quality of our patients' sleep and overall oral health.
