Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct misaligned teeth and jaw issues using durable brackets and wires. Ideal for patients seeking reliable, cost-effective solutions for complex orthodontic needs. Our team ensures precise adjustments for optimal alignment and bite correction.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers discreet, removable aligners to straighten teeth without metal brackets. Perfect for adults and teens prioritizing aesthetics, this treatment uses custom 3D-printed trays for gradual, comfortable tooth movement and improved confidence.
Damon Clear
Damon Clear braces combine self-ligating technology with tooth-colored brackets for a subtle, efficient treatment. Designed for patients seeking a balance between aesthetics and effectiveness, these braces reduce friction and appointment frequency for faster results.
Pitts 21
Pitts 21 braces use advanced self-ligating technology to accelerate treatment with fewer adjustments. Their low-profile design and integrated hooks enhance comfort while addressing crowding, spacing, and bite issues efficiently.
