Orthodontic Care
Our comprehensive orthodontic care addresses misaligned teeth and jaw issues through customized treatment plans. Using advanced diagnostic tools and proven techniques, we create beautiful, functional smiles that improve oral health and boost confidence. Our approach combines traditional expertise with modern technology for optimal results.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign offers a discreet alternative to traditional braces using virtually invisible aligners. This treatment straightens teeth without metal brackets or wires, allowing patients to maintain their appearance while achieving dental alignment. Our certified providers ensure precise treatment planning and monitoring.
Pediatric Orthodontics
Early orthodontic intervention for children aged 6-12 helps guide proper jaw development and tooth eruption. We monitor growth patterns and implement timely treatments to prevent future complications, creating space for permanent teeth and correcting bite issues.
Adult Orthodontics
Specialized orthodontic solutions for adults address unique considerations while achieving aesthetic and functional improvements. We offer discreet options like clear brackets and Invisalign, with treatment plans accounting for established dental work and periodontal health.
Emergency Services
We provide prompt emergency orthodontic care for broken brackets, loose wires, and other urgent issues. Our team addresses discomfort immediately without additional fees, ensuring treatment progress continues smoothly while maintaining patient comfort.

Questions
Why should I choose an orthodontist over a general dentist for braces?
Orthodontists have 2+ years of specialized training in tooth movement and jaw alignment beyond dental school, making them experts in creating optimal bite relationships and facial harmony.
What orthodontic options are available for adults?
We offer clear aligners, tooth-colored brackets, and traditional metal braces tailored to adult lifestyles and aesthetic preferences while maintaining treatment effectiveness.
When should children first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends initial evaluation at age 6-8 to monitor development and determine optimal treatment timing for each patient.
How long does orthodontic treatment typically last?
Treatment duration varies by case complexity but averages 20-24 months. Early interventions often complete within 12 months, with retainer use following brace removal.
What payment options are available for orthodontic treatment?
We offer customized no-interest payment plans and work with patients to create affordable financial arrangements that accommodate their budgetary needs.

Everyone is always so friendly, want me to be comfortable, are meticulous, we have fun picking colors, and Audrey happily answers my curious questions about how these things work. I eagerly await the 6 wks before I get to visit them again and see how my teeth are straightening!
