Find the Right Orthodontic Treatment

Achieving your orthodontic goals begins with a personalized consultation. We start with a thorough exam of your or your child's smile. We may also capture impressions to view a 3-D picture of your mouth. Our options include:

  • Clear Aligners - Unlike braces, this is a nearly invisible, removable solution. Invisalign® aligners gradually straighten your teeth using a series of custom-fit trays. It's ideal for teens and adults looking for a discreet option.
  • Space Maintainers - If your child loses a tooth too soon, these small appliances hold the spot for adult teeth. Maintainers will prevent crowding and support proper arch development.

Why Families Trust Us for Orthodontic Care

We're here to make your orthodontic experience as smooth, comfortable, and personalized as possible. We help patients of all ages feel confident from the first appointment to the final reveal with:

  • Digital Scanning - You won't have to deal with goopy trays and that gagging feeling. We use iTero digital scans to map out your entire orthodontic plan. It's quick, comfortable, and so much easier than molds.
  • Gold Invisalign Provider Status - We've treated countless clear aligner cases with beautiful results. That experience means we know how to handle complex cases. You'll gain a precise, predictable outcome.
  • Family-Centered Care - Whether we're guiding your little one's first teeth or helping you finally get the smile you've always wanted, we're here for your whole family, at every age and stage.
  • Early Morning Appointments - We know mornings are already packed. That's why we open at 7 a.m. on Thursdays. You can get in, get your appointment done, and still make it to work or school on time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Orthodontics

Do adults benefit from orthodontic treatment?
Absolutely. Orthodontic care isn't just for kids and teens. Many adults choose to improve their smiles later in life. Whether you've never had treatment or your teeth have shifted over time, modern orthodontics makes it easier and more discreet than ever. We can help you explore treatment options that fit your lifestyle and goals.
What are space maintainers, and when are they needed?
Space maintainers are small dental appliances used in children when a baby tooth is lost too early. They're designed to hold space in the arch so that permanent teeth can come in properly. Without this support, nearby teeth may shift into the gap and cause crowding or misalignment. Space maintainers are simple, comfortable, and often help avoid more extensive orthodontic work down the road.
How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?
Treatment time varies depending on the patient's age, needs, and the type of care being provided. For minor early intervention with space maintainers, treatment may last just a few months. Full orthodontic treatment, whether with braces or aligners, typically takes 12 to 24 months. We'll give you a clear estimate at your consultation based on your unique case.
