Orthodontic Treatment

Treatment Options

Care Tailored to Your Smile

Traditional Metal Braces

Durable and effective, traditional braces remain one of the most reliable ways to straighten teeth and correct bite issues at any age.

Clear & Ceramic Braces

A more discreet option that straightens teeth with the same reliability as metal braces, blending in with your natural smile.

Solventum Clear Aligners

A nearly invisible, removable aligner system that gradually shifts teeth into place — a discreet option for teens and adults.

Retainers & Follow-Up Care

Once treatment is complete, we'll fit you with a custom retainer and schedule follow-up visits to keep your new smile in place.
