Life with braces is essentially the same as life without braces - with the exception of eating certain foods! Braces today are a lot more comfortable than they used to be, however, it is normal to have some soreness for a few days after each adjustment appointment. It's ok to take a pain reliever if needed - whatever you would normally take for a headache will work to reduce the tenderness.
Invisalign Teen is an increasingly popular treatment option for adolescents. This is a great option for any patient who may feel self-concious about visibly straightening the teeth with braces. The barely-visible plastic aligners gradually straighten the teeth from their current position to a beautiful, straight smile.
For adults who want a straighter smile without the appearance of braces and wires, Invisalign is the ideal option. These nearly invisible aligners are smooth and removable so they won't interfere with your daily life. The series of clear plastic aligners are changed every 1-2 weeks to gradually straighten the teeth.
For some patients, a healthy, balanced smile cannot be obtained with orthodontic treatment alone. An underlying skeletal discrepancy may necessitate jaw surgery to acheive a stable result. If this is the case, the pre-surgical orthodontic work-up can generally be done using either braces or Invisalign.
For kids and adults alike, the first visit to an orthodontic office can be intimidating. At Babb Orthodontics, we want you to feel comfortable and welcome from the moment you walk in. Prior to your first visit, we will email you some simple paperwork to complete and bring in with you. You can also complete it in our office before you see Dr. Babb, but filling it out in advance will save you time when you get here.

I have two sons who currently see Dr. Babb and her staff. They both love going to the orthodontist. There are never any tears or fears. The staff is especially knowledgeable, friendly, and works well with children. In particular, Dr. Babb, Amy, and Kathy have been great! We’ve referred friends to the office. I wish they were around 30 years ago when I needed an expander and braces! They have earned my highest recommendation!

I had the most wonderful experience at Babb Ortho and I couldn't wait to share it! Dr. Babb and her staff are kind, professional, and informative. Dr. Babb took a lot of time to make sure all of my questions were answered, I was comfortable throughout my entire treatment, and she tweaked my plan a few times to ensure I would have the best results. She is the sweetest! Her entire staff (shout out to Kathy!) is a pleasure to work with. I'm extremely pleased with my results, especially considering I was told by other dentists/orthodontists that my crossbite and spacing could not be fixed with Invisalign

The office Dr. Lisa Babb has built alongside her amazing team is- just that- amazing. For me, Invisalign was a hefty investment. From the moment I walked in I knew that investing in my teeth/health with Babb was the best choice I could make. I just finished my treatment and could not be anymore pleased. This is it. This is the place! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Everybody at the office was friendly and knowledgeable. They made the entire process easy. The staff was able to answer all of my questions with knowledge and efficiency. The office itself is very clean and professional looking. My brother had his treatment done and the results were very well done. I look forward to finishing my treatment to get the same results.
