Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable solution for straightening teeth using advanced SmartTrack material. This treatment effectively addresses crossbites, crowding, open bites, gapped teeth, overbites, and underbites. Patients benefit from weekly aligner changes, virtual invisibility, and the ability to maintain regular oral hygiene routines while achieving their ideal smile.
Clear Braces
Clear braces provide an aesthetic alternative to traditional metal braces using tooth-colored or transparent materials. These braces offer equal effectiveness in correcting misalignment while maintaining a natural appearance. Patients appreciate their discreet look, though they may require slightly longer treatment times compared to metal braces and need special care to prevent discoloration.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics corrects severe bite issues and jaw discrepancies through coordinated treatment with oral surgeons. This approach addresses complex cases requiring jaw repositioning, often combined with traditional braces. Treatment typically takes two years and is most effective when completed during adolescence before jaw growth completes, though successful adult treatments are also performed.
Adult Orthodontics
Specialized orthodontic treatments for adults address unique concerns like periodontal health, worn teeth, and previous incomplete treatments. Options include clear aligners, lingual braces, and traditional braces adapted for mature dental needs. The practice recognizes adults' specific requirements for aesthetics, comfort, and treatment efficiency while correcting bite issues and improving oral health.
iCAT 3D Imaging
iCAT 3D imaging technology creates precise digital impressions for accurate treatment planning. This advanced system eliminates traditional putty impressions, providing detailed 3D views of teeth and jaw structures. The technology enables better diagnosis, more accurate treatment predictions, and improved patient understanding of their orthodontic needs through visual treatment previews.
