Advances in technology have brought changes to modern orthodontic practices improving performance and providing shorter treatment times. When to start treatment varies for each individual and can depend on several factors. Early interceptive treatment takes advantage of facial growth and tooth eruption, can lessen the severity of a problem, and it frequently makes the completion of treatment at a later age less time consuming.
Comprehensive treatment treats both the upper and lower arch, addressing malocclusions (teeth not properly aligned, incorrect bite) by properly aligning the teeth and improving the bite. We have a dedicated, experienced team ready to answer any questions you may have, assist you with scheduling, and help to simplify the process.
