Braces and aligners

Orthodontics

Options for improving tooth alignment and bite for children, teens, and adults.

Orthodontics — treatment details

Orthodontics straightens teeth and corrects bite problems using braces or clear aligners, for better function, easier cleaning, and a confident smile.

When it’s recommended

For crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites or crooked teeth, in both teens and adults.

What to expect

We take photos, X-rays, and impressions or scans, then plan your treatment. Regular adjustment visits follow, usually every 4–8 weeks.

Aftercare

Brush and floss carefully around braces or aligners, avoid hard and sticky foods, and wear retainers as instructed once treatment ends. Retainers keep teeth from shifting back.
