Traditional Orthodontics & Invisalign Clear Braces: Innovative Orthodontic Treatments for Your Best Smile

Orthodontics is the art and science of repositioning teeth and realigning bites for healthy smiles that look beautiful and function comfortably. Our Board-certified orthodontist, Dr. Patel, designs personalized orthodontic solutions – from traditional braces to Invisalign – that give patients of all ages life-enhancing smiles. He’ll perform a comprehensive assessment of your individual needs to plan your personalized course of treatment.

Traditional Orthodontics
When most people think of orthodontics, traditional braces come to mind. Metal wires laced through brackets adhered to teeth provide a proven method to close gaps, eliminate crowding, and properly position teeth to eliminate bite misalignment. Adjusting the tension of the wires gradually moves teeth into their ideal arrangement. We offer clear and colored brackets to let patients customize their braces to reflect their individuality. Dr. Patel often recommends traditional braces for children and teens. They’re a good choice for adults, too. In fact, over 1 million adults currently wear braces – some for the first time and some after receiving orthodontic treatment as a child. Treatment time depends on the specific needs of each patient.

Invisalign Clear Braces
Often, adults who visit our practice seeking orthodontic treatment opt for Invisalign clear braces. This innovative solution uses clear, acrylic aligners to gently move teeth in the right direction. Invisalign patients retain a mature image while achieving a beautiful smile. Our Invisalign-certified dentists use advanced technology to design each patient’s clear braces treatment from start to finish. Because Invisalign aligners are removable, patients eat what they want and easily clean their braces and their teeth. Many of our patients complete Invisalign treatment in less than a year.
