Traditional Metal Braces

The Classic Way to Straighten Teeth

Traditional metal braces are the classic, time-tested way to straighten teeth and correct bite problems. They use small stainless-steel brackets that are gently bonded to the front of each tooth and connected with a thin archwire. Your orthodontist adjusts this wire over time to guide teeth into their ideal positions. Modern metal braces are much smaller and more comfortable than in the past, and patients can even customize them with colorful elastic bands for a fun, personalized look. Because they are durable, effective, and work for a wide range of orthodontic issues—from simple crowding to complex bite corrections—traditional metal braces remain a trusted choice for kids, teens, and adults alike.

Clear Aligners

The Nearly Invisible Path to a Confident Smile

Clear aligners are a modern, nearly invisible way to straighten teeth without traditional brackets and wires. They consist of a series of custom-made, removable trays that fit snugly over your teeth and gently shift them into place over time. Because the aligners are smooth and clear, most people won’t notice you’re wearing them, and you can easily remove them for eating, brushing, and flossing. Clear aligners are popular with teens and adults who want an effective, comfortable treatment that fits their lifestyle and makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.

Ceramic Braces

A Subtle Alternative to Metal Braces

Ceramic braces work much like traditional metal braces but use tooth-colored or clear ceramic brackets that blend in with your natural teeth. This makes them far less noticeable while still providing the same reliable, precise tooth movement. They’re strong, smooth, and designed to resist staining, so they stay discreet throughout treatment. Because they offer the strength of fixed braces with a more subtle look, ceramic braces are a great option for teens and adults who want effective orthodontic results without the shine of metal.

Iconix

A Stylish Twist on Traditional Braces

Iconix braces combine the proven strength of stainless steel with a soft, champagne-gold finish that blends beautifully with natural tooth color. Their smaller, rounded brackets are designed for comfort while giving your smile a warmer, more refined look than traditional silver braces. Because they work just like standard braces, Iconix provides the same reliable tooth movement and treatment options, but with an elegant, low-profile style that appeals to teens and adults who want a little extra sophistication in their orthodontic care.

Early Phase Orthodontics

Early Care for Better Long-Term Results

Early phase orthodontics—also called interceptive or Phase I treatment—focuses on guiding a child’s jaw growth and creating space for permanent teeth while the mouth is still developing. The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7 to allow for early detection of developing dental issues such as crowding, jaw growth problems, or issues with permanent tooth eruption. By addressing issues early, treatment can shorten or simplify braces or aligner therapy later on. Early phase orthodontics uses gentle, age-appropriate appliances such as expanders or limited braces to set the foundation for a healthy, beautiful smile.

Palatal Expanders

Creating Space for a Growing Smile

A palatal expander is a gentle, custom appliance that gradually widens the upper jaw to create more space for incoming teeth and improve how the upper and lower jaws fit together. Often recommended for children while their jaws are still growing, this device can help reduce crowding, eliminate crossbites, and make future orthodontic treatment easier and faster. The expander is typically worn for a few months and adjusted at home according to your orthodontist’s instructions. By guiding jaw growth early, palatal expanders help set the stage for a balanced, healthy smile.

Habit Breaking Appliances

Gentle Solutions for Thumbs, Fingers, and More

Habit breaking appliances are small, custom orthodontic devices designed to help children stop habits—like thumb-sucking, finger-sucking, or tongue thrusting—that can affect how teeth and jaws grow. These appliances are gently attached to the upper teeth and act as a reminder or physical barrier, making it easier for kids to break the habit without constant supervision. By ending these habits early, habit breaking appliances help to prevent or deduce open bites, improve malpositioning of front teeth, and other issues that could require more extensive treatment later, setting the foundation for a healthier smile.

Space Maintainers

Protect Space for Incoming Permanent Teeth

Space maintainers are small, custom-made orthodontic devices that hold open the space left when a baby tooth is lost too early. By keeping nearby teeth from drifting, they help permanent teeth grow into their proper positions and reduce the need for more complex treatment later on. Space maintainers are simple, comfortable, and can be either fixed or removable depending on your child’s needs. This early, preventive step helps guide a healthy bite and keeps your child’s future smile on track.
