Did you know the recommended age to first see the orthodontist is age 7? That is where two phase orthodontics come into play.
The first phase of treatment occurs at a younger age than conventional orthodontic care and isn't typically as long. The idea is to shift teeth, manipulate growth, create space for unerupted teeth, break habits and prevent trauma before it's too late. Children between the ages of 7 and 10 are best suited for this treatment. Second phase treatment begins once most of the adult teeth have erupted. After the second phase of treatment retainers will be worn in order to hold the teeth in the correct position.
We offer a very unique and exclusive retainer replacement program that can significantly reduce the chance of movement, cost, and time involved in a new retainer if anything were to happen to the original set.
Feel as though maybe the traditional route of braces may not best suit your life? Ask about our clear aligners at your consultation. We offer both in house aligners and a third-party option.
Wanting a brighter smile? We can help with that as well! We offer customized whitening trays.
Our goal is to be full service, efficient, and to serve you as best as we can.
