What Is Orthodontics and How Can It Transform Your Smile?
How Orthodontic Treatment Improves Function, Health, and Confidence
Orthodontics is focused on aligning crooked teeth and improving jaw position to enhance both how your smile looks and how it functions. A properly aligned bite helps with chewing, speech, and long-term oral health while reducing strain on the jaw.
Common Issues Orthodontics Can Correct
Orthodontic treatment can address crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and jaw alignment issues. Left untreated, these problems can lead to tooth wear, tooth decay, gum issues, and discomfort over time.
Invisalign vs. Braces: Find the Right Treatment for You
Clear Aligners (Invisalign® & Modern Alternatives)
Clear aligners work by using a set of custom-made, removable trays that gently shift your teeth into place over time. They are nearly invisible, comfortable, and allow you to eat and maintain proper oral hygiene without restrictions.
Metal Braces (Reliable and Effective for All Cases)
Metal braces are the most common type of braces used in orthodontic care. Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and highly effective for treating simple to complex orthodontic dental issues. They remain one of the most reliable treatment options available.
Ceramic Braces (More Discreet, Same Results)
Ceramic braces blend in with your natural teeth, offering a more subtle alternative to metal braces while delivering similar results. They are especially popular among teens and adults.
Lingual Braces (Hidden Behind the Teeth)
Lingual braces are placed behind the teeth, making them completely hidden from view. They provide effective treatment for patients who want a fully discreet solution when aligners are not suitable.
Orthodontic Treatment for Every Stage of Life
Early Orthodontic Treatment for Children
A first orthodontic evaluation around age seven allows our doctor to guide jaw development, create space for permanent teeth, and prevent more complex issues later. Early treatment can reduce the need for extractions and simplify future care.
Adolescent Orthodontics
Orthodontic care during the teenage years helps ensure proper alignment, improved function, and a confident smile during critical developmental stages.
Adult Orthodontic Treatment
It’s never too late to improve your smile. Adults can benefit from orthodontic treatment to enhance aesthetics, restore function, and maintain long-term oral health.
Family Orthodontic Care
We provide comprehensive orthodontic care for patients of all ages, making it easy for families to receive personalized orthodontic care in one convenient location.
What to Expect: Orthodontic Treatment Process & Timeline
Your Initial Consultation and Digital Imaging
Your orthodontic journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including digital imaging and a detailed assessment of your teeth and bite.
Custom Treatment Planning
Based on your needs, our trusted orthodontist creates a personalized plan designed to deliver efficient, predictable results and a successful treatment outcome using the most appropriate method.
Active Treatment Phase
Most patients wear braces or aligners for approximately 12 to 24 months, depending on the treatment duration and complexity of the case, with periodic visits every 4 to 10 weeks to monitor progress and make adjustments.
Retention and Long-Term Results
After treatment, retainers help maintain your results and protect your investment in your new smile.
Advanced Orthodontic Services and Specialized Care

Two-Phase Orthodontic Treatment
Two-phase treatment allows early intervention followed by final alignment, helping guide proper development and reduce the need for more invasive procedures later.
Clear Aligner Therapy
Using advanced 3D planning and digital scanning, clear aligners offer a precise, comfortable, and discreet way to straighten teeth.
Braces for Complex Cases
For more advanced alignment or bite issues, braces provide the control and precision needed to achieve optimal results.
Orthodontics Combined with Oral Surgery
In severe cases involving jaw alignment or structural issues, orthodontic treatment may be combined with surgery to achieve the best functional and aesthetic outcome.
Cost of Orthodontic Treatment and Insurance Options
The cost of braces depends on the complexity of the case and the type of treatment chosen. The average cost of braces can range from $3,000 to $7,000, depending on various factors, including the type of braces and the length of treatment.
