Orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth; it’s about improving your overall oral health. Proper alignment can prevent issues such as uneven tooth wear, chronic jaw pain, and other dental problems. With options like OrthoFX clear aligners, we offer discreet, effective treatments for patients of all ages.

Invisalign® and OrthoFX clear aligners provide a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth. These custom-made aligners are comfortable, removable, and designed to gradually move your teeth into the desired position. Perfect for adults and teens alike, clear aligners offer an aesthetic and convenient alternative to traditional braces.

At what age should my child receive an orthodontic evaluation?
Children should receive their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7, allowing us to identify and plan for any potential alignment issues early on.

Are there options besides traditional metal braces for teenagers?
Yes, we offer modern alternatives like OrthoFX clear aligners, which are nearly invisible and can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing. These are great for teens who are conscious about the appearance of braces.

What are clear aligner braces?
Clear aligner braces are clear, plastic aligners custom-fitted to your teeth. They gently shift your teeth into place and are changed every few weeks as your treatment progresses. They offer an almost invisible orthodontic solution.

Are clear aligners suitable for everyone?
Clear aligners, such as OrthoFX and Invisalign® are ideal for adults and teenagers with mild to moderate alignment issues. We’ll help determine if it’s the right choice for you during your consultation.

Can adults benefit from orthodontic treatment?
Absolutely. Orthodontic treatment is effective for patients of all ages, as long as your teeth and gums are healthy. We offer solutions tailored to adult lifestyles and aesthetic concerns.

How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Treatment length varies but typically lasts about 24 months, depending on the severity of misalignment and the type of treatment chosen.

Do braces hurt?
It’s common to experience some discomfort after braces are applied or adjusted, but this usually subsides quickly. Over-the-counter pain relief or dental wax can help manage any irritation.

What should I do if my braces break or become loose?
Contact our office immediately if you experience any issues with your braces. Prompt repair is crucial to avoid extending your treatment duration.

Will I need to avoid certain foods with braces?
Yes, we recommend avoiding hard, sticky, or chewy foods that can damage braces. We’ll provide a comprehensive list of foods to avoid and tips for maintaining your braces.

How often should I brush and floss with braces?
Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial during orthodontic treatment. Brush at least three times a day and floss daily. We’ll show you the best techniques for cleaning around your braces.
