Orthodontic Braces

New Patient Special- Free X-Rays With Any Cleaning and Exam

Many people wonder about the difference between dentistry and orthodontics. Dental treatment focuses on the health of your teeth, while orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that concentrates on something called malocclusions - which simply means how your teeth fit together.

Orthodontic treatment may be necessary to repair:

• Improper bites
• Jaw misalignment
• Teeth crowding
• Spacing between teeth
• Overbites and underbites
• Crooked teeth
• Facial reconstruction

The most common way we treat orthodontic problems is by applying braces to your teeth, and we are experienced to handle child orthodontics as well as adult patients.

Braces work by moving your teeth into their proper alignment, on an average rate of one millimeter per month. With all the advances in the field of orthodontics, your options are many - including:

• Traditional archwire and brackets
• Archwire and elastics
• Removable retainers
• Expanders
• Headgear
• Facemask
• Invisalign trays
