I would describe Prairie Orthodontics as passionately friendly, down-to-earth and fun for the whole family. I like getting everyone involved in the process and presenting all the options for treatment. I believe in efficiency, keeping treatment on time and completing treatment with fewer appointments. I hope to give my patients happy, healthy, well-functioning smiles and bites that also meet their cosmetic and esthetic needs.
I'm good at explaining the most complex issues in plain English, and I believe in giving my patients the benefit of advanced treatment using the latest technology. I am constantly taking continuing education classes to offer my patients the best treatment options available using the latest technology. When I was young, I was very fond of being around my father and his orthodontic practice.
Today, I most enjoy giving children and adults confident smiles and building their self-esteem. Communication is the key. My staff and I also make a point to volunteer for and participate in as many community activities, especially dental health activities, as possible.

Services
Most people who want their teeth straightened choose metal braces.
These are made using high-grade stainless steel.
The ones applied today are less noticeable, easier to tolerate and better looking than those in years past.
Ceramic braces are less noticeable than the modern metal braces since they are translucent in color, being made of clear material.
Adults seem to like these best for cosmetic reasons.
There is a drawback though in that the ceramic brackets are more fragile than the metal ones and the elastic ties do tend to become discolored between visits to the orthodontist.

No, it is not.
Many of our patients are referred by their family dentist, yet many other patients take the initiative to schedule an examination themselves.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an orthodontic screening at age 7. By this age, several permanent teeth in most children have erupted, allowing us to effectively evaluate your orthodontic condition.
Plaque constantly forms on teeth, it is a clear film of bacteria that builds in hard to reach areas such as between the teeth and in the lines of your gums.
