Orthodontic Treatments for Every Smile

LightForce Clear Braces

LightForce clear braces are fully customized, 3D-printed ceramic braces designed specifically for your smile. These advanced clear braces combine the effectiveness of traditional orthodontics with a more aesthetic, less noticeable appearance. The translucent, tooth-colored ceramic brackets blend naturally with your smile while delivering precise, efficient tooth movement.

LightBracket Metal Braces

LightForce LightBracket Metal™ braces combine the proven strength of traditional metal braces with advanced 3D-printing technology and fully customized digital treatment planning. Instead of using one-size-fits-all brackets, every LightForce bracket is individually designed for each tooth based on your orthodontist’s custom treatment plan. This patient-specific approach allows for more precise tooth movement, improved comfort, and highly efficient treatment.

Invisalign® Clear Aligner

Invisalign clear aligners offer a modern, comfortable, and nearly invisible way to straighten teeth without traditional braces. Using a series of custom-made removable aligners, Invisalign treatment gradually moves teeth into their ideal positions with precision and convenience. Treatment begins with a digital scan and customized treatment plan created specifically for your smile. Each set of aligners is designed to make small, controlled tooth movements over time, helping improve alignment, bite function, and overall smile aesthetics.

When Do You Need to See the Orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that all children have a check-up with an orthodontist specialist no later than age 7. At this time, the bite begins to be established when the first molars erupt (approximately age 6).The incisors or the front teeth have also begun to erupt at this time, and problems can be detected, such as crowding, habits, deep bites, and some jaw discrepancies. Although most kids do not need treatment at this time, a timely evaluation will lead to significant treatment benefits moving forward and the immediate benefit of a parent's peace of mind. Adolescents and adults with fully developed dentition can seek a consultation from an orthodontist at any time.
