Orthodontics
Orthodontics is conventional use of brackets, bands, and wires bonded to teeth to move them into alignment. Braces are appropriate for teens, once the jaw is done growing, and for adults regardless of age. Using this method, our dentists can control movement of teeth in relationship to one another, quite accurately, for a strikingly straight smile.Depending on complexity, a typical orthodontic treatment plan takes 12 to 24 months to complete, after which a retainer is worn to maintain position of teeth.
