Our goal is to help everyone achieve a beautiful, healthy smile. We offer personalized orthodontic treatment using the latest technology. Our experienced team will guide you every step of the way.

Early Orthodontic Care for Children

Early orthodontic evaluations are key to detect potential issues before they become more serious. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic check-up by age 7.

Benefits of Early Evaluation

  • Identify Issues Early: Early evaluation helps us detect problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth.
  • Create a Proactive Plan: By starting early, we can create a proactive treatment plan to guide the proper development of your child's teeth and jaw.

Treatment Options

  • Phase I Treatment: This early intervention can include appliances to correct jaw growth and create space for incoming teeth.
  • Traditional Braces: Effective for correcting misalignment and bite issues, traditional braces can be customized with colorful bands for a fun experience.

Orthodontic Treatments for Teens

The teenage years are ideal for orthodontic treatment, as the jaw and teeth are still developing. We offer a range of options that fit seamlessly into a teen's active lifestyle.

Popular Treatments

  • Traditional Braces: Reliable and effective, traditional braces can be personalized with colorful bands to allow teens to express their style.
  • Invisalign® Teen: These clear aligners provide a discreet way to straighten teeth and are removable, making it easier to maintain oral hygiene and enjoy your favorite foods.

Supporting Teen Patients

  • Education on Oral Hygiene: We teach teens to maintain excellent oral hygiene while wearing braces or aligners.
  • Regular Check-Ups: Frequent visits help us monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to ensure the best results.

Orthodontic Solutions for Adults

It’s never too late to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. We provide a variety of orthodontic treatments tailored to adult patients' needs.

Treatment Options

  • Clear Aligners (Invisalign): These virtually invisible aligners are comfortable and removable, allowing adults to straighten their teeth discreetly.
  • Ceramic Braces: These braces use tooth-colored brackets and wires, making them less noticeable than traditional metal braces.

Benefits of Adult Orthodontics

  • Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean and maintain, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
  • Enhanced Appearance: A straight smile boosts confidence and improves personal and professional interactions.
