Our Most Popular Orthodontic Treatments

Traditional Braces

Braces remain one of the most effective ways to straighten teeth, fix overcrowding, close gaps, and correct bite problems. We offer modern metal braces and ceramic (clear) braces that are smaller, more comfortable, and more attractive than ever before. Traditional braces are a reliable choice for both simple and complex orthodontic cases.

Invisalign and Clear Aligners

Want a discreet way to straighten your teeth? Invisalign and other clear aligners offer a virtually invisible solution for teens and adults. With removable trays and no metal brackets or wires, Invisalign allows you to eat, brush, and floss with ease during your orthodontic journey.

Early Orthodontic Treatment

Also called Phase 1 Orthodontics, early treatment is recommended for some children as young as 7 years old. By guiding jaw development and correcting dental issues early, we can reduce the need for more complex treatments later on. If you're wondering when your child should first see an orthodontist, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends an evaluation by age 7—and we offer free consultations to get started!

Retainers and Post-Treatment Care

After orthodontic treatment, retainers are crucial for maintaining your beautiful new smile. We provide both removable and fixed retainers to fit your needs, and we'll guide you on the best retainer wear schedule to ensure long-lasting results.
