Treatment times? Shorter ✅ Results? More accurate ✅
Did you know we use this unique technology that makes your treatment times shorter and your results more accurate?

We have used SureSmile for many years on many of our smiles, that allows our doctors to digitally order the finishing bends in your braces wires (Dr. J and Dr. A still have to prescribe each tooth movement), and then has a robot create those!

This is the most accurate treatment (and definitely quickest) for many types of alignment, and we are excited to offer this at NO extra cost to you.

Our doctors are always using the best technology of what is available to orthodontists, from digital braces to 3D printers for your retainers and our many iTero scanners to record your smile and make our appliances.

We’re ready to see your smiles, it’s time to get ready for 2026! 🎉

Come in to meet our amazing Orthodontists and our award-winning team! We’ll show you around and answer all of your smile questions at your free first visit. We can’t wait to meet you and your family!

And did you know we offer touch-up treatment for parents? Ask us about your own free scan at your child’s appointment, or make a free first visit appointment any time!
