Orthodontics
A straighter smile is priceless. Having properly aligned teeth lowers your risk of tooth decay, gum disease and TMJ disorder. But it’s also a beautiful accessory that impacts your self-esteem and personal life. Feeling great about the way your smile looks often starts with addressing problems like crooked or crowded teeth.
We offer several types of braces for you to consider, based on your oral health needs.
- ClearCorrect — Translucent, removable orthodontic aligners move your teeth without metal brackets or wires. Adults (especially busy parents and working professionals) love them for the subtle appearance and convenience they have to offer.
- Traditional Braces — Conventional orthodontics work well at any age, whether you’re 12 or 72! Predictably guide mild to severely misaligned bites into a healthier, harmonious smile!
- Ceramic Braces — Tooth-coloured braces blend in with your smile, so they’re less noticeable during everyday conversations. They’re great for adults who don’t qualify for ClearCorrect but want a cosmetic alternative to traditional orthodontics.
Your Orthodontic Consultation
Getting braces always starts with a comprehensive exam and evaluation of your teeth and jaws. During your assessment, we’ll have a series of photographs and X-rays taken to take multiple aspects of your oral anatomy into consideration.
Orthodontics can help to manage a variety of dental concerns, including:
Gaps between teeth
Periodontal disease
Crossbites, overbites and underbites
High cavity rates
TMJ disorder
Abnormal tooth wear
When we have an idea of the duration of your treatment and select the type of braces right for you, we’ll provide you with a detailed care plan that outlines all of the costs involved.
