Our orthodontic offerings are built to accommodate a wide variety of alignment issues, from minor crowding to more advanced jaw irregularities. Each treatment begins with a comprehensive evaluation, followed by a detailed discussion of your goals and options.
Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic care provides more than just cosmetic improvements. A properly aligned bite can help:
- Prevent uneven wear and tear on teeth
- Alleviate tension in the jaw and face
- Improve speech and chewing ability
- Lower the risk of tooth decay and gum disease
- Boost overall confidence and quality of life
Our integrated approach ensures that your orthodontic treatment aligns with any other dental needs you may have, from general dentistry to cosmetic enhancements.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have an initial orthodontic evaluation by age 7. This allows us to identify potential problems early—even if treatment doesn’t begin right away.
Are orthodontic treatments only for teens?
Not at all. Adults can benefit greatly from orthodontic care, especially with options like clear aligners that offer discretion and flexibility. We regularly help adult patients correct bite issues, spacing, or relapse from past treatments.
How do I know if I need braces or clear aligners?
During your consultation, we’ll assess your teeth, bite, jaw function, and lifestyle needs. Some cases respond better to braces, while others may be ideal for aligners. In certain cases, a hybrid approach is recommended.
How long will orthodontic treatment take?
Most treatments range from 12 to 30 months depending on complexity. Complex cases may require additional time, but we’ll give you a detailed plan and estimated timeline up front.
Will insurance cover orthodontic care?
Many dental insurance plans offer partial coverage for orthodontic treatment, especially for children. We’ll help verify your benefits, explain costs, and offer flexible payment plans if needed.
