Braces

Braces are often considered an inevitable milestone in the lives of today’s youth. We are all familiar with the wires, springs, and brackets of this classic orthodontic system. While they’ve become a sign of adolescence over many years, braces are a reliable solution for anyone. No matter your age, braces may be the best step for achieving your healthiest smile. As a matter of fact, Early-Intervention Orthodontics is the main reason Doctor Patrick became interested in orthodontics. Significant problems such as extraction of permantent teeth, jaw surgery, and TMJ and sleep apnea problems can often be avoided if orthodontics get started before puberty when the body is still developing. This kind of orthodontics is known as Functional Orthodontics.

If you prefer, clear brackets and invisible wires are available to create a more subtle visual effect. Together we can work to achieve the ideal outcome with minimal esthetic hindrance. The timing and approach of your straightening process can be customized to meet your needs. We are happy to help you discover the options and find the right plan for you.

Orthodontic treatments such as braces can help straighten teeth and improve jaw alignment. Almost any situation can benefit from braces; however, successful treatment requires good patient cooperation. 

You should regularly use elastic bands, keep consistent appointments for adjustments, and practice a great home dental care routine to guarantee the best result. 

We advise frequent visits with your hygienist to prevent the development of cavities around your braces. We are committed to helping you achieve your ideal outcome, including a beautiful smile as soon as the braces come off.
