Metal Braces
Metal braces are a trusted and effective orthodontic treatment for correcting crowded, crooked, or misaligned teeth. Made from durable stainless steel, today’s braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever before. Brackets are attached to each tooth and connected by a wire that gradually shifts your teeth into the right position. Metal braces are ideal for patients of all ages and can treat even complex bite and alignment issues with reliable results.
Benefits of Metal Braces
- Ideal for treating mild to severe alignment and bite issues
- Made from strong stainless steel for long-lasting results
- Offers excellent control over tooth positioning
- Choose from colorful bands for a fun, personalized look
- Unlike removable aligners, braces stay on your teeth at all times
- Work 24/7 to straighten your teeth efficiently and reliably
Clear Aligner Therapy
Clear aligner therapy offers a discreet and comfortable way to straighten your teeth without metal brackets or wires. Using a series of custom-made, removable trays, aligners gently shift your teeth into place over time. They’re nearly invisible and easy to take out for eating, brushing, and flossing, making them a convenient option for teens and adults. We’ll design a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve a straighter smile with minimal disruption to your daily routine.

- Clear aligners can be removed for a short time for certain occasions
- Generally, treatment time is shorter than traditional braces
- Fewer office visits are required during treatment
