Orthodontics

The benefits of orthodontic treatment include a healthier mouth, a more pleasing appearance, and teeth that are more likely to last a lifetime. If you are a candidate for orthodontics, we may use several methods to develop an individualized treatment plan, including:

  • Examination
  • Digital X-rays
  • Panoramic and Cephalometric X-rays
  • Impressions to determine the specific alignment of your teeth and bite

The results of this evaluation are studied in order to formulate the best orthodontic treatment plan for you. The duration of orthodontic treatment varies based on your age and other factors. In some cases, the treatment time is longer. For example, oral surgery and recovery may be needed before or during orthodontic treatment. Following treatment, you may be required to wear a retainer for a period of time.

Invisalign®

Invisalign takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you simply wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact movements your dentist or orthodontist plans out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You simply pop in a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete and you achieve the confident smile that you’ve always wanted. The best part about the whole process is that most people won’t even know you’re straightening your teeth.

Sure there are other options out there for straightening your teeth, but non offers the level of comfort, convenience and confidence that you;ll find with Invisalign. And no matter what stage you’re at in life, you’ll appreciate how our cutting-edge approach to treatment has minimal interference in how you live, but has significant positive impact on how you look and feel about yourself.

One of the best things about Invisalign is the minimal impact it has on your everyday life. Since the aligners are so comfortable, you should be able to wear them for the recommended 20-22 hours a day without much effort.

Retainer

Orthodontic retainers are custom-made appliance, made usually of wires or clear plastic, to keep teeth in position after surgery or after dental braces are removed. When braces are removed, the teeth have a tendency to want to return back to their original positions. Thus, it is crucial to wear your retainers as often as your orthodontist recommends.
