Modern metal braces are highly effective in correcting a variety of orthodontic issues. They’re more comfortable than ever before and are a great choice for addressing teeth alignment, bite problems, and more.
For teens, we offer clear aligners, a nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces. These aligners provide an effective and discreet way to straighten teeth without the visibility of braces.
After treatment, we provide custom retainers to maintain your child’s beautiful new smile. Regular retainer use ensures that teeth stay in their new, proper positions.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early evaluation helps us identify potential dental problems early and create an effective treatment plan tailored to your child's needs.

If you see any of these issues, it’s a good idea to schedule an orthodontic consultation to get your child the care they need.

Including overbites, underbites, and crossbites that can affect both function and appearance.
Crooked or misaligned teeth that impact smile aesthetics and oral function.
