Dr. Renee Moran, our Denver orthodontist and bite correction expert, believes that orthodontics should be more than just a cosmetic service. That's why, at Foundations Orthodontics, we take a holistic approach. While conventional orthodontic treatment focuses on straightening the teeth with braces or Invisalign, we pride ourselves in accounting for the whole picture of health and beauty.
We spend the time to create a truly customized treatment plan for you that includes bite and jaw alignment, in addition to giving you a spectacular-looking smile. This enables us to address any potential problems with your TMJ, sleep-disordered breathing, and overall bite function.

Services
From the moment you make your first phone call, you will sense our personal and professional commitment to excellence. Our team of health professionals believe that you and your family deserve quality care in a friendly, comfortable atmosphere. We enjoy what we do and look forward to explaining how orthodontic treatment works and how it can be most beneficial to you or your child.
Doctors in dentistry who are known for their knowledge of function, all agree that the relationship between the teeth and jaw joints is the primary key to long term health and stability of the chewing system. Most orthodontists focus primarily on tooth alignment and do not correct the functional relationship between the teeth and jaw joints- this is where our doctor differs.
Starting with your first visit, our mission is to provide you with exceptional care in a friendly and comfortable environment. See below for what to expect during your first few visits to our office. At your complimentary initial exam, you will meet Dr. Moran and our patient care team. This appointment allows time for Dr. Moran to do an initial examination and to learn more about your goals for treatment.
Dr. Moran is a board-certified orthodontist and bite correction expert who is uniquely positioned to diagnose and treat the painful and functional problems associated with TMJ dysfunction and temporomandibular disorders (TMD). After receiving her doctorate from dental school, she completed a general practice residency in the Air Force, followed by an orthodontic residency.
We all have a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) on either side of the face. The complex facial joints connect the jawbone to the skull and are capable of both sliding and hinge motions. The TMJ works in concert with other parts of your anatomy, including the jawbones, facial and neck muscles, tendons, and teeth.

Dr Moran prepared me for jaw surgery which was a long process involving splint therapy and braces. After my recovery and the removal of my braces, one of my clients commented "your smile is amazing". That says it all! The entire staff was kind and helpful through my 3 year journey, I highly recommend Foundations Orthodontics.

Dr. Moran and the Foundations Team are outstanding! Double jaw surgery has been one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done. Dr. Moran was always available to me by phone or text with reassurance, patience and understanding (and I’ve needed a lot of all 3). I am so grateful to the whole team for walking with me through this.
