What Are Braces?

Braces are an orthodontic treatment that corrects various malocclusions or bite misalignments, including crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth. Dental braces are also effective in addressing overbites, underbites, and crossbites. We offer traditional braces and Invisalign® clear aligners to address your specific oral health needs.

Our friendly team welcomes children, teens, and adults who are ready to turn their dream smile into a reality. Every stage of life requires different dental treatments, and our team is proud to offer Phase 1 and Phase 2 orthodontic treatment so you and your loved ones can smile confidently.

Phase 1 orthodontics consists of the treatments children need to protect their developing bite patterns and address potential issues. We welcome kids as young as seven and craft a treatment plan that is tailored to their unique needs as they lose their primary teeth, and their permanent teeth erupt. Our team offers space maintainers and appliances that support orthodontic needs to help your little one's smile develop properly.

Our Effective Braces Process

Your smile is unique, and you deserve a personalized treatment plan to fit your specific needs and smile goals. Our compassionate orthodontist takes the time to perform a thorough and gentle exam to determine the severity of your bite misalignment. He then crafts a treatment plan that is tailored to fit your needs and lifestyle.

We encourage open and honest discussion because the more we understand your goals, the better we can align your plan with your needs. For those with mild to moderate misalignments, we offer clear aligners or braces. The clear aligners are removable, and it's vital to wear them for 22 hours each day to enjoy optimal results.

If your misalignment is mild to severe, then braces are an effective treatment option. Traditional braces consist of metal wires and brackets that are attached to your teeth and guide them into the optimal position. Regardless of which treatment plan is best for you, you can trust that our team will be there for you throughout the process and provide helpful tips and instructions.
