Orthodontics

Do you have crooked, crowded or misaligned teeth? Today’s orthodontic treatments are comfortable, convenient and affordable for patients of all ages.

A Straighter Smile is a Happy Smile
An attractive smile is just one of the benefits of orthodontics. Correctly aligned teeth provide ideal jaw function and are easier to clean, making them more resistant to gum disease.

• Perhaps the most rewarding benefit of orthodontic therapy is the boost to individual self confidence - Having a smile you are proud of is a great feeling, no matter how old you are!

What to Expect:
Your initial orthodontic consultation will consist of a thorough examination and a review of treatment options. This complete analysis of your teeth typically includes photos, impressions and digital radiographs.

• We will use visual aids or educational videos about orthodontic procedures to fully explain our recommendations. We invite you to ask questions – it is important that you understand your care!
• During this visit we will also discuss time frames and financial arrangements.

How Orthodontic treatment works:
Orthodontic braces and retainers use gentle pressure to move teeth and adjacent structures into proper alignment. Treatment times vary depending on age, patient participation and the extent of correction required. Generally, treatment lasts for 18 to 24 months – A strong home care and prevention routine plays a key role in the success of orthodontics.
