Family Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment is available to patients of all ages. In accordance with the
American Association of Orthodontists, we recommend that children have their first
orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7. With early evaluation and diagnosis, children
can achieve optimal orthodontic results. Early treatment provides a range of benefits
and often means that a patient can avoid surgery or other serious complications.
There is, of course, no age limit for orthodontic treatment as both children and
adults benefit from orthodontics. As such, our office accommodates orthodontic patients
of all ages.

What's New In Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is more popular than ever. This popularity is due to the overwhelming
success of improved treatments and technology. New technology produces better results
with fewer visits and shortened treatment times. In some cases, we can eliminate
months of treatment time for individuals. One example of recent improvements is
nickel-titanium-alloy archwires. These have replaced the traditional stainless steel
wires used in braces. This new technology provides our patients with a temperature-sensitive
wire that allows for continuous movement of the teeth over longer periods of time.
For our patients, this means enhanced comfort, decreased treatment time and fewer
trips to the orthodontist.
Cosmetic improvements are also on the forefront of advances in orthodontics. Popular
choices of our patients are ceramic braces, a translucent material that camouflages
the brackets on your teeth. Today, brackets are smaller, more comfortable and more
durable than older-style braces. The smaller brackets bond directly to the teeth.
If you are looking for braces without the “metal-mouth” appearance, you may want
to consider clear ceramic braces.
The latest in invisible braces is Invisalign®. Invisalign uses clear, plastic aligners
created from sophisticated 3-D computer imaging technology. They are comfortable,
removable and invisible! Invisalign is a popular choice for adults who are ultimately
concerned about the appearance of braces during normal daily activities. Invisalign
can offer the flexibility of choosing to wear your braces at more convenient times
of the day. Our office is certified to treat patients with Invisalign.
