Services
Braces
We offer traditional metal braces and ceramic clear braces for kids, teens, and adults. Metal braces use stainless steel brackets and wires to gradually align teeth, while ceramic braces blend with tooth color for discretion. Both options provide effective solutions for correcting bite issues and overcrowding. Our team ensures same-day fittings and personalized care throughout treatment.
Invisalign Aligners
Invisalign aligners provide a discreet, removable solution for straightening teeth. Custom-made to fit your bite, these clear trays offer flexibility for eating and oral hygiene. As a Diamond Plus Invisalign provider, we deliver precise treatment plans with average completion times of 12 months, often faster than traditional braces.
Smile Express
Smile Express offers accelerated Invisalign treatment for adults seeking minor adjustments. This orthodontist-led program requires only two office visits over six months, using remote care technology. Custom aligners address mild spacing or crowding issues, providing an affordable, low-maintenance option for busy professionals.
Rising Star Program
Our free Rising Star program provides early orthodontic monitoring for children aged 7+. We track dental development to preemptively address issues like crossbites, overcrowding, or harmful habits. This proactive approach simplifies future treatment while making dental visits fun with rewards and educational activities.
Virtual Appointments
The Smile Doctors Anywhere app enables remote orthodontic consultations through secure video calls. Patients can schedule appointments, receive treatment feedback within 24 hours, and manage payments from home. This technology maintains treatment continuity while accommodating busy lifestyles with minimal office visits.
