Two-Phase Orthodontic Treatment

Why are there some children as young as seven or eight already in braces?  Well, these children are in Phase I orthodontic treatment.  Many young children exhibit early signs of jaw or bite problems such as excess overbite, narrow jaws and crowding.  In order to modify and correct these potentially negative dental growth patterns, the orthodontist “sets the stage” in Phase I and completes the treatment later in Phase II once all of the permanent teeth are present.  In this ...

Did you know that straighter teeth can also affect your overall health?

Invisalign is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want.
