Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth without metal braces. These removable appliances treat mild to moderate alignment issues while maintaining bite functionality. Dr. Ling's 10+ years of specialist experience ensures precise tooth movement planning using 3D imaging technology for predictable results.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces provide effective tooth alignment with smaller, more comfortable brackets. Our treatment combines self-ligating technology with specialist diagnosis to correct complex bite issues while minimizing treatment duration through precise force application.
Orthodontic Expanders
Expanders correct jaw width discrepancies to prevent future dental issues. We offer both Invisalign Palatal Expanders and traditional metal options, custom-designed to guide natural jaw development in growing patients while avoiding surgical interventions.
Myofunctional Appliances
These removable devices address improper oral habits in children with mixed dentition. Early intervention helps establish correct tongue positioning and breathing patterns, creating optimal conditions for future orthodontic treatment while supporting healthy jaw development.
Custom Mouthguards
Tailored mouthguards provide superior protection against dental trauma during sports activities. Our lab-fabricated guards offer precise fit and graduated thickness options to accommodate different impact levels while maintaining comfort during wear.

Questions
At what age should children begin orthodontic evaluation?
We recommend initial assessment around age 7-8 to identify developmental issues and determine optimal treatment timing for maximum effectiveness.
Does insurance typically cover orthodontic treatment?
Coverage varies by policy - some plans include orthodontic benefits while others don't. Our office can verify your specific coverage details upon receiving policy information.
How long should retainers be worn after treatment?
We recommend 20+ hours daily wear for the first year, followed by nighttime wear indefinitely to maintain treatment results and prevent teeth shifting.
Can Invisalign treat severe alignment issues?
Invisalign effectively treats mild to moderate cases. Complex skeletal discrepancies may require combined treatments or traditional braces, determined through specialist evaluation.
What happens if I lose an Invisalign aligner?
Contact our office immediately - we'll determine whether to proceed to the next aligner, return to a previous one, or order a replacement to maintain treatment progress.
Are there dietary restrictions with metal braces?
Yes - avoid chewy, crunchy, and sticky foods to prevent appliance damage. We provide detailed dietary guidelines and care instructions during treatment initiation.
