Services
A Kentucky native, Dr. Matthew Milliner grew up in Clarkson, KY, a small town about 150 miles east of the Paducah area. He understands the value of a hard day's work and strives to provide his patients with the same honest, reliable care you'd find in a small town, but with all the amenities and current technology you'd find in an upscale office in a large city.
For most patients, straight teeth equal a beautiful smile. But did you know that a properly aligned bite is also healthier? Overlapped, crooked, or rotated teeth create a daily cleaning challenge. Helping even a couple straggling teeth find their proper place can leave you with a healthier mouth. Straight teeth aren't just for kids!
For ultimate camouflage, tray or aligner systems offer a modern straightening method. A series of clear plastic trays are made using 3D digital models of your teeth. Medical-grade plastic without wires, metal, springs, or rubber bands gently move your teeth into place. Continuous pressure on specific teeth with each aligner means less discomfort and, in many cases, shortened treatment times.
Braces are considered a rite of passage for many young people, much like getting your driver's license. Sometimes clear brackets and tooth-colored wires can help hide the hardware. Dr. Matthew Milliner will help you explore the options and discuss if braces fit your treatment scenario. While orthodontics can solve many tooth alignment problems, successful treatment relies on good patient compliance.
Technology in the orthodontic field is ever-changing and Dr. Milliner enjoys learning how to integrate state-of-the-art equipment into his practice. Utilizing the latest advancements in orthodontics allows Dr. Milliner to treat patients with less pain and in fewer visits. This equals less time in the orthodontic chair and a more comfortable experience from start to finish.

Report
We are in Paducah, 2000 miles away from our orthodontists, and my daughter's top wire decided to shift. It was so bad that we simply could not wait until we got back to California. I called and they just happened to have one person in the office in case of emergencies. She got us right in, fixed my daughter's wire, and sent us on our merry way (without charging us a dime!). Such a great experience! Thank you for helping us out in a pinch!!
