This past spring, my skilled and wonderful orthodontist removed all of the braces from my mouth. I cannot begin to tell you the magic that he performed in my life! I am excited to have straight teeth for the first time and after only one month of having the braces gone, I got married! I never knew what a difference straight teeth could make.
As a courtesy to you and your family dentist, we will always discuss the feasibility of braces or tooth straightening without charging a fee. There may be a co-payment for X-rays and other diagnostic procedures. As a rule of thumb, we like to evaluate young patients after the 6-year molars erupt and the front permanent teeth just start to appear.
Thanks to today's advances in orthodontic technology, Bradford Orthodontics offers more options than in the past. While regular metal braces are still widely used, clear braces are becoming increasingly popular along with removable aligners that can be used for mild to moderate cases of misaligned teeth.
It's more important than ever to brush and floss regularly when you have braces, so the teeth and gums are healthy during orthodontic treatment. Patients who do not keep their teeth clean may require more frequent visits to the dentist for a professional cleaning. Adults who have a history of gum disease should also see a periodontist during orthodontic treatment.
An accurate impression is essential for effective treatment planning and orthodontic care. The iOC Scanner captures the contours of the tooth and gingival structures, producing an accurate digital orthodontic scan in just minutes. The iTero handheld wand takes a digital, 3D image of your prepared teeth, stopping as needed.

Dr. Ferlito is the best!!! I had braces for about 5-6 years and I couldn’t be happier with the result of my teeth all thanks to Dr. Ferlito and his amazing staff. The environment is very friendly and welcoming and I actually enjoyed going to my appointments. Even after losing countless retainers they would always replace them for me. I would recommend Bradford Orthodontics to anyone, they’re the best!!

Dr. Ferlito and his team are the best! I have had braces twice, and both times I went to Dr. Ferlito.
Recently, I had jaw surgery to correct a medical issue. As part of the preparation for the surgery, I needed to get braces. I didn’t hesitate to go back to Dr. Ferlito after having a positive experience with him the first time I had braces. He did a great job coordinating with my surgeon and constantly kept my surgeon and me informed on my progress. Now my braces are off, and I’m really happy with my results.
Also, his whole staff is caring and professional. Every time I call or have an appointment

Hands down the best practice ever! Seriously complete none of your healthcare needs to the ‘Ferlito Standard’ as you will be disappointed. Amazing front staff, ALWAYS so polite and patient. They see soo many people and always manage to just sound pleasant, even towards the end of the day. As far as my child’s care, her braces are phenomenal, never has complained about absorbent issues and has never had an emergency related to treatment process. Her teeth look phenomenal. Ferlito is well respected in his field as well, referral to an oral surgery dentist he made was also a phenomenal practice

Deciding to get braces in your mid-twenties is a big decision and Dr. Ferlito and his staff made such an effort to review the various options and find the perfect fit for me which was Invisalign. They completely took the intimidation and stress out of the decision making process. Anytime I had questions or needed an appointment they’ve been there happy and eggar to help, fitting me in ASAP. It’s been a great experience working with their team and I always feel like I’m in great hands.

Bradford Orthodontics creates beautiful, healthy smiles. With their friendly staff and experienced orthodontist, I always recommend Bradford Orthodontics to everyone. I know I can trust their opinions and they value and prioritize me to make sure my teeth are healthy. Dr. Ferlito knows how to make my experiences comfortable and I know I am in good hands. Dr. Ferlito is extremely competent and the hospitality of the staff are reasons why I will always go to Bradford Orthodontics and take my son there, too, if he has a need for braces.
