Orthododontics
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry specializing in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of jaw, face and bite irregularities (malocclusions*). Orthodontic treatment is provided by an oral health care provider known as an orthodontist, who has completed two to three years of additional training beyond dental school.
Recent years have brought about many changes within the dental industry, specifically with regards to orthodontic treatment and care. Now more than ever patients are experiencing fewer incidences of cavities and missing teeth due to the heightened awareness of fluoride use and preventative dentistry. This increasing awareness on the health and look of a patient’s smile has fueled the desire for many to seek out orthodontia not only as a medical necessity, but for cosmetic reasons as well.
Whether it’s traditional braces or custom made removable appliances, orthodontics can help you have the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you’ve been waiting for!

How SureSmile® Works:
The process begins with a 3D model of your teeth, created using advanced imaging technology. This model allows the dentist to plan your treatment with remarkable accuracy. The custom braces are then engineered by the SureSmile® system using a special archwire that is activated by body heat, gently moving your teeth into place.
SureSmile® reduces the need for frequent adjustments, making the treatment more comfortable and less time-consuming. It’s a great option for patients of all ages with healthy teeth and gums.
