Braces have been used to transform smiles for over 120 years.
Recent technological advances in the design and material of braces make them a more gentle and efficient treatment option than ever before.
These braces are created from a single crystal of pure grown sapphire - one of the hardest materials in nature, second only to diamond.
The crystal is highly polished into a remarkably strong and beautiful bracket that's nearly invisible on the teeth.
The Radiance ceramic braces offer an aesthetic option for orthodontic treatment with braces.

After completion of orthodontic treatment, every patient needs retainers to keep your bite in place and prevent teeth from regressing back to their previous position.
Retainers are customized for each patient.
Hawley retainers are made with a metal wire surrounding front teeth and acrylic covering palate/gum part.
The acrylic part comes with different color of your choice.
This retainer can also help settle the bite at back teeth.
It is typically worn 16-20 hours/day during the first year after treatment, only removed during eating and brushing.

No matter your stage of life, we have the experience and knowledge to provide expert treatment that takes all your needs into consideration.
Phase 1 treatment addresses orthodontic issues that young children, typically between the ages of six and ten may experience before they have their permanent teeth.
At this age, many children may have some adult front teeth and their first molar.
Their jaw bones will also begin to grow significantly through post-adolescence.

Palatal expansion is used to correct upper and lower jaw width problems (crossbites) or can help to reduce crowding in abnormally narrow arches by broadening the upper jaw.
Since the expansion aims at jaw bone and allows new bone to grow, the best timing of expansion is at younger age when the expansion result can be most efficient and stable.
Palatal expansion is often used in Phase I treatment for young kids who present anterior crossbite (underbite) since the anterior crossbite might be an early sign of deficient upper jaw grow and/or prominent lower jaw grow in the future.
