Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth without traditional braces. These virtually invisible aligners allow normal eating and oral hygiene while providing effective orthodontic correction. Our certified providers create personalized treatment plans using 3D imaging technology to show expected results before starting treatment.
LightForce Braces
LightForce Braces are the world's first 3D-printed orthodontic appliances that offer precise, customized treatment. Each bracket is digitally designed for optimal tooth positioning, reducing adjustment needs and treatment time. This technology provides enhanced comfort and aesthetics compared to traditional bracket systems.
Herbst Appliance
The Herbst appliance corrects severe overbites by guiding proper jaw development in growing patients. This fixed device promotes forward growth of the lower jaw to achieve proper bite alignment. It offers more consistent results than removable headgear while allowing normal speech and function during treatment.
Rapid Palatal Expander
Rapid Palatal Expanders address crossbites and create space for erupting teeth through gentle bone separation. This orthopedic appliance is most effective in younger patients before facial bones fully fuse. Treatment typically requires three weeks of activation followed by six months of stabilization.
Empower Braces
Empower self-ligating braces use clip technology instead of elastic ties for more efficient tooth movement. This system reduces friction, allows faster adjustments, and maintains better oral hygiene during treatment. Available in clear ceramic options for improved aesthetics.
