Phase 1 Orthodontics
Children with mixed dentition, or that still have both their primary and permanent teeth, are good candidates for Phase 1 orthodontics. The goal of this intervention is to help guide your child’s dental alignment and jaw growth to provide more room for their permanent teeth to grow in. Addressing these issues early on could be the difference between needing surgery and not in the future.
Adult Orthodontics
Even adults require orthodontic treatment. Whether you got braces when you were younger and didn’t wear your retainer or your teeth shifted over time, we can help align your smile as well as improve your oral health with either clear aligners or traditional braces, whichever option best fits your needs.
Invisalign®
Invisalign is the top brand of clear aligners and has been around for over two decades now. With a perfected process and materials, Invisalign is able to make your orthodontic journey more comfortable, convenient, and discreet. Simply wear your customized trays for 20 to 22 hours each day and see the results happen in real time. You’ll continue checking in with our team every six to eight weeks, so rest assured that you’ll receive professional oversight and guidance along every step of the way.
Metal Braces
Metal braces are what most patients think of when they hear that they need orthodontic care, and they’re ideal for those with more complex orthodontic concerns, like moderate bite problems. They utilize a bracket-wire system to gently and strategically straighten teeth, bringing those that are gapped and crowded into perfect alignment to balance the bite.
Tooth-Colored Braces
Ceramic braces, also referred to as tooth-colored braces, work in the same way as traditional metal braces. The only difference is that the materials used are designed to blend in your teeth. Each of the brackets are crafted from durable ceramic, while the archwire is made from a barely-visible material against the background of your teeth. Tooth-colored braces work identically to metal braces and are great for image-conscious teens and adults.
Expanders
Your child may benefit from expanders if they suffer from dental misalignment or other serious orthodontic concerns. These orthodontic appliances can be fixed or removeable and work to guide the growth of the jaw by applying a continuous and gentle force to the palate. Their goal is to create more space for your child’s permanent teeth to grow in, preventing those from becoming crowded or misaligned as well.
Dental Monitoring
Dental monitoring allows our team to be right by your side along every step of your orthodontic journey. As your teeth begin to move, you can track your progress by using your smartphone to take photos and upload them to a designated application. You’ll be able to watch your progress, and our team will be able to follow along to make sure everything looks ship-shape!
LightForce Braces
LightForce Brackets are custom-designed just for you and your treatment. They’re low-profile, 3D printed braces that are designed to move your teeth faster than even clear aligners. This fully personalized treatment is excellent for patients who are looking for an orthodontic solution that can save them time by being designed with efficiency in mind.
