Self-Ligating Braces are revolutionary in design. This system has a built in sliding door that allows the archwire to slide more freely so your teeth move more comfortably during treatment. Traditional braces use elastic bands to hold wires in place which cause more friction and can at times be very uncomfortable for patients.

Both of my daughters went to Dr. Lovinggood for their braces. They both turned out so great! We loved the price, the staff, and the results. Thanks!

Dr. Lovinggood provides excellent service! This is my second time in treatment. He created a beautiful smile for me the first time around however i didn't wear my retainer (shame on me lol). The entire staff has been amazing and I feel right at home. I am a singer/songwriter in Kansas City and my smile is a major part of my career. Doc makes sure that I look my best for photos, videos etc. I am so grateful!

Dr. Lovinggood removed my youngest sons braces today. He, along with his entire staff, do exceptional work. He has done amazing transformations on 5 of my family members so far. He made my husband look like a new man, as well as my 2 sons, my niece, & my bff's daughter. His prices are reasonable & he offers an affordable payment plan to fit your budget. My husband was the first person in our family to see him in 1999 and he is the only orthodontist I will refer people to. We have never had any problems over the years & I can not speak highly enuf of him.
