Services
Traditional Braces
Modern metal braces use high-quality stainless steel brackets and archwires to gradually align teeth through controlled pressure. Our customized treatment plans incorporate low-profile designs for enhanced comfort and aesthetic appeal. Regular adjustments ensure optimal tooth movement while maintaining structural integrity, making this cost-effective solution suitable for correcting complex bite issues and misalignments across all age groups.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet teeth-straightening solution using SmartTrack material for improved control of tooth movement. The treatment process begins with iTero digital scans to create customized 3D treatment plans. Patients benefit from removable aligners that allow normal eating and oral hygiene routines while effectively addressing crossbites, crowding, and spacing issues through sequential tray changes every two weeks.
Cleft Palate Treatment
Our specialized cleft palate treatment involves multidisciplinary collaboration through Boise's Cleft Palate Team. With over a decade of experience, Dr. Slattery works alongside Dr. Griffiths to develop comprehensive treatment plans for children and adults. This coordinated approach addresses both functional and aesthetic concerns through staged interventions that may include orthodontic preparation, surgical coordination, and long-term dental development monitoring.
iTero Digital Impressions
iTero digital impression technology replaces traditional putty molds with precise laser scanning for accurate 3D dental models. The radiation-free system captures detailed tooth and gum structures in 2-3 minutes, enabling real-time visualization of treatment progress. This technology enhances diagnostic accuracy while improving patient comfort and streamlining treatment planning for both braces and aligner therapies.
AcceleDent Optima
AcceleDent Optima uses patented SoftPulse Technology to accelerate tooth movement by up to 50% while reducing treatment discomfort. The FDA-cleared device delivers gentle micropulses through a custom mouthpiece worn 20 minutes daily. Clinical studies demonstrate its effectiveness in shortening treatment duration for both braces and aligner patients, with users reporting significant reductions in adjustment-related discomfort through increased cellular activity around tooth roots.
