Our experienced providers have treated hundreds of cases ranging from simple crowding to complex bite correction.

  • Those who want the flexibility to remove aligners for eating

Who It's Not For

  • Patients with severe bite discrepancies or skeletal issues
  • Children whose permanent teeth have not fully erupted
  • Individuals who may not comply with 20–22 hour daily wear

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age should my child first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial evaluation by age 7. Early detection allows us to guide jaw growth and address developing issues before they become more complex.
How long does orthodontic treatment typically take?
Average treatment time ranges from 12 to 24 months depending on the complexity of your case. We'll provide a personalized timeline during your initial consultation.
Does Invisalign work as well as braces?
For many cases, yes. Invisalign is highly effective for crowding, spacing, and mild to moderate bite issues. We'll recommend the best option based on your specific needs.
Is orthodontic treatment painful?
You may experience mild discomfort for a few days after adjustments or when starting a new aligner set. This is normal and manageable with over-the-counter pain relief if needed.
Do you accept insurance?
We accept most major dental insurance plans with orthodontic benefits. Our team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits before treatment begins.
What payment options are available?
We offer flexible payment plans with no down payment options, accept all major credit cards, and work with third-party financing to make treatment affordable.
