Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for adults and teens seeking aesthetic alternatives to traditional braces, this treatment gently shifts teeth into proper alignment over time. Our practice offers customized Invisalign plans with regular progress monitoring.
Braces
We provide multiple brace options including traditional metal, ceramic, and gold braces. These fixed appliances effectively correct complex alignment issues through periodic adjustments. Our team ensures comfortable application and ongoing care for optimal results.
Two-Phase Treatment
This approach addresses severe crowding, crossbites, and jaw development issues in children aged 7-12. Phase one creates space for permanent teeth, potentially reducing future treatment complexity. We evaluate each case individually to determine necessity.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
Specialized treatment focuses on guiding facial growth and jaw alignment alongside tooth positioning. This comprehensive approach improves both functional bite relationships and aesthetic facial proportions for long-term oral health benefits.
Retainer Instructions
Post-treatment retainer guidance ensures lasting results. We provide customized wear schedules and cleaning protocols to maintain proper tooth alignment. Follow-up appointments monitor retention progress and address any adjustments needed.
