Services
Braces
Traditional orthodontic treatment using metal or ceramic brackets and archwires to correct tooth alignment. Our modern braces feature smaller, more comfortable designs with heat-activated wires for efficient tooth movement. Patients receive comprehensive care instructions including specialized cleaning techniques and dietary guidelines to maintain optimal oral health during treatment.
Invisalign
Discreet orthodontic solution using custom-made, removable plastic aligners to straighten teeth. This technology allows for virtually invisible treatment with 22-hour daily wear and weekly aligner changes. Our Diamond Provider status ensures access to advanced treatment planning using 3D digital scanning technology for precise, comfortable results.
Myofunctional Therapy
Specialized treatment addressing oral muscle dysfunction and airway health through targeted exercises. Certified practitioners identify and correct issues like tongue thrusting and mouth breathing that affect dental development. This complementary therapy creates stable foundations for orthodontic treatment and long-term oral health improvements.
Orthodontics for Children
Comprehensive care for young patients including growth guidance programs starting at age seven. We monitor dental development and intervene when necessary to correct crossbites, crowding, and other alignment issues. Early treatment options focus on creating proper jaw development and preventing future orthodontic complications through phased treatment approaches.
Retention
Post-treatment care using custom retainers to maintain corrected tooth positions. We provide both removable and fixed retention options with personalized wear schedules based on individual needs. Our long-term retention guidance addresses natural tooth movement patterns to ensure lasting results following orthodontic treatment completion.
