We
offer a variety of braces intended to make you feel comfortable about
your orthodontic treatment experience.
"Silver"
Braces
These small metal braces are attached only to the front of the teeth.
Their small size makes them the choice of many.
Aesthetic
Braces
These braces blend in with the teeth to become hardly noticeable.
Chosen by both adult and child patients.
Gold
braces
Gold braces are quite attractive and classy, especially in adults
who wear gold jewelry.
Damon Brackets
Damon braces were invented by Dr. Dwight Damon. The Damon bracket utilizes (sliding-door) technology known as "self-ligation" that allows the wire to slide back and forth within the bracket.
No elastic or steel ties are used with Damon brackets. This technology creates less friction and results in greater comfort for the patient. In addition, Damon braces often reduce both treatment time and the number of adjustments that are usually performed.
Introducing Invisalign® The Straightest Way to a Great
Smile
Invisalign straightens your teeth without wires and brackets, using
a series of clear, customized, removable appliances called aligners.
Its virtually undetectable, which means hardly anyone will
know that youre straightening your teeth.
Clearly Different The Invisalign System combines advanced 3-D computer graphics
technology with 100-year-old science of orthodontics. Invisalign
aligners are designed to move your teeth in small steps to the desired
final position prescribed by your orthodontist. Each aligner is
precisely calibrated and manufactured to fit your mouth at each
stage of the treatment plan. Your first step is to visit our office
to determine if Invisalign is right for you. After sending precise
treatment instructions, Invisalign uses advanced computer technology
to translate these instructions in a sequence of finely calibrated
aligners -- as few as 12 or as many as 48. Each aligner is worn
for about two weeks and only taken out to eat, brush and floss.
As you replace each aligner with the next, your teeth will begin
to move gradually -- week-by-week until the final alignment prescribed
is attained. Then you'll be smiling like you never have before!

To ensure the best possible results, only an orthodontist who has
been trained and certified by Align Technology can diagnose and
treat using Invisalign. Invisalign is not intended for children
and is not appropriate for every adult. Only an orthodontist can
determine if this treatment is an effective option for you. To see
