Overview

The practice of orthodontics involves appliances, commonly called braces, which are used to correct and treat these problems so that the optimal dental function and stability are achieved. A persons self-esteem often improves as orthodontic treatment brings the teeth, lips, and face into harmony.  We offer children, teens and adults the most advanced materials, equipment and techniques in orthodontics with a goal of assisting each patient in achieving healthy, functioning teeth and an inviting smile.
