Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. This technology benefits adults and teens seeking mild to moderate alignment corrections without metal braces. The treatment includes 3D scanning for personalized plans and periodic aligner replacements to gradually shift teeth into optimal positions.
Metal Braces
Metal braces correct complex alignment issues through bonded brackets and archwires. Regular adjustments apply controlled pressure to reposition teeth and jaws. Ideal for patients requiring significant bite correction or severe misalignment, offering durable and precise results.
Adult Orthodontics
Tailored treatments address adult-specific concerns like jaw alignment and spacing. Options include discreet ceramic braces, self-ligating systems, and Invisalign. Focus on improving oral health, confidence, and preventing future dental issues through modern techniques adapted for mature patients.
Kids Orthodontics
Early intervention for children aged 7+ identifies and addresses developmental issues. Services include palate expanders for crossbite correction, partial braces, and monitoring growth patterns. Goals include preventing severe problems, reducing future treatment needs, and ensuring proper jaw development.
Two-Phase Treatment
This approach combines Phase One (ages 7-10) jaw development with Phase Two (adolescence) braces. It creates space for permanent teeth, corrects bite issues early, and simplifies final alignment. Designed to minimize future extractions and surgical risks while optimizing facial symmetry.
