Orthodontics

A beautifully aligned smile is more than just aesthetically pleasing – it's a reflection of your overall oral health and confidence. Our orthodontic specialists are dedicated to providing exceptional care, using the latest advancements in orthodontic technology to help you achieve the smile of your dreams.

Traditional Braces

In cases demanding a more intricate orthodontic approach, our time-tested traditional braces remain an exceptional choice. Leveraging the latest advancements in orthodontic technology, our braces have evolved to become smaller, more comfortable, and significantly more efficient in achieving precise tooth movement. This classic method still stands strong, ensuring optimal results.

Invisalign® Clear Aligners

Step into the future of orthodontic care with our revolutionary Invisalign® clear aligners. As a cutting-edge alternative to conventional metal braces, our esteemed orthodontic team is delighted to offer this discreet and remarkably comfortable solution for teeth alignment. Invisalign® aligners boast virtually invisible aesthetics and the added convenience of easy removal, allowing you to enjoy meals, maintain oral hygiene, and floss with utmost ease.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are used for the same purpose as metal braces but are made of clear or tooth-colored ceramic material. Many clients, especially adults, opt for ceramic braces over metal braces because they are less obvious. This may be appealing if you need braces but do not want to feel self-conscious or embarrassed about having them.

Lingual Braces

Lingual Braces are placed behind your teeth. This means that fewer people may know you're wearing braces unless you tell them. Lingual braces may be a good choice for those who would like to to avoid damage to the front surfaces of their teeth, or who are concerned about wearing braces that are obvious. Musicians who play wind instruments, adult professionals, and teens who play contact sports are all ideal candidates.

Post-Treatment Retention

The journey doesn't end with the completion of treatment. After the culmination of your braces or Invisalign® journey, we furnish you with a bespoke retention strategy. This tailored plan is designed to ensure the perpetuation of your newly aligned teeth, safeguarding your investment in the brilliance of your smile.

Personalized Treatment Plans

We recognize the individuality of each smile. Our highly skilled orthodontic specialists craft personalized treatment plans that are meticulously tailored to your specific dental needs and aspirations. Whether you're contending with issues like crowding, gaps, or misaligned bites, our array of solutions is perfectly calibrated to meet your unique requirements.

Orthodontics

Everyone deserves a smile they can be proud of, and many achieve straightened, well-aligned teeth after undergoing orthodontic treatment as a child. But for adults who do not have the privilege of having straight teeth, orthodontics are still an option. In fact, there is no such thing as being too old for orthodontic treatment. More adults than ever are seeking straighter teeth – perhaps due to advancements in modern dentistry that allow for more discreet and less invasive orthodontic treatments. And braces aren’t becoming popular for cosmetic reasons alone. Rather, many adults are realizing the long-term oral health benefits associated with having straighter teeth.

Did you know?

There are many myths surrounding braces and adult orthodontics:

  • MYTH: Adults don’t get braces.
  • FACT: Approximately 20 percent of all orthodontic patients are adults over age 18.
  • MYTH: Braces are too embarrassing as an adult.
  • FACT: Today’s braces can be made from ceramic to blend in with your natural tooth shade. Many adults also opt for removable braces made of clear and discreet aligning trays.
  • MYTH: I don’t want to spend years in braces.
  • FACT: You probably won’t have to. Many adults complete orthodontic treatment in just months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a candidate for adult orthodontics?

You may be a candidate for adult orthodontics if your teeth are crowded, overlapping, crooked, or have gaps between them. To find out more about your treatment options, schedule a consultation with your orthodontist.

What should I expect during adult orthodontic treatment?

During your orthodontic screening, you will undergo an examination and digital imaging to determine the position of your teeth and bite. Your orthodontist will map out a treatment plan designed to give you the straightest teeth possible in the least amount of time. Depending on the type of braces you choose – traditional or removable – you’ll be fitted for your appliance and given instructions on how frequently to return for follow-up appointments.

Will I need to follow any special instructions while I have my braces?

Yes. If you are wearing clear aligners, you’ll need to change out your trays every few days or weeks. You’ll also be instructed to wear your aligners at all times, with the exception of during meals and while brushing your teeth. If you have traditional metal or ceramic braces, you may be given special instructions to avoid biting down on hard or chewy foods, such as popcorn kernels, ice and taffy.
