Traditional Braces

With a metal bracket-and-wire system, traditional braces shift teeth with the help of applied pressure through wire tightening. Frequent visits to our dental office are required so that we can make sure your teeth are moving in the proper direction and at an appropriate speed. Average treatment times can range from 2-3 years depending on your case.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Instead of metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners that are customized to fit your smile as it progresses throughout treatment. You are to wear your trays 20-22 hours a day as well as switch them out every few weeks. As a flexible and more subtle orthodontic solution, results can often be achieved in just 12-18 months.

Propel®

As part of your orthodontic treatment, we can incorporate Propel, which is a simple and safe procedure that involves making small perforations in the bone that surrounds the shifting teeth. Apart from stimulating bone production, it helps to move teeth faster, boosts healing time, and leads to quicker results.

AcceleDent®

AcceleDent is an FDA-approved device that is worn inside the mouth to help encourage faster tooth movement. It can be worn with traditional braces or Invisalign and gently vibrates using SoftPulse technology. When worn correctly, it can help to increase the speed at which your teeth shift as well as quicken bone reproduction.
