Clear Aligner Therapy

Clear aligners provide a discreet, removable alternative to traditional braces for correcting teeth misalignment. Using a series of custom-fitted transparent trays, these aligners gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. This aesthetically pleasing option allows for easy maintenance and flexibility with a minimal impact on daily life.

Our office provides Invisalign® and ClearCorrect™ aligners, both popular and well-liked choices among patients and dental professionals alike. Our team would be happy to provide you with more information about ClearCorrect and Invisalign to help you decide which option is right for your smile.

Traditional Brackets and Wire Braces

As the most common type of braces worn, today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and attractive. Comprising metal brackets attached to teeth and interconnected by wires, this method gradually guides teeth into proper alignment. While visible, these braces are highly effective, allowing for precise adjustments to achieve a straight, healthy smile.

How long does orthodontic treatment take?

Generally, orthodontic treatment can last between 6 months to three years. Factors like the complexity of the case, the chosen treatment method, and patient compliance influence the timeframe. Regular check-ups with the orthodontist help monitor progress and make necessary adjustments, ensuring the best outcome for a beautifully aligned smile.

What is the best age for orthodontic treatment?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have an orthodontic evaluation at 7 years old. Though an initial evaluation at 7 is crucial, orthodontic treatment likely will not start at this time. However, orthodontic treatment can be beneficial at any age! Our orthodontic treatments, especially our clear aligner therapy option, is an effective solution for busy adults. If you’re thinking about starting orthodontic treatment, contact our office today!
