Dr. Tran and Dr. Justene are highly trained in cosmetic and restorative dentistry and can take further steps to enhance your smile after your orthodontics treatment is completed.

Types of Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a field of dentistry that focuses on the alignment of teeth and jaws. There are several types of orthodontic treatments available, including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and clear aligners such as Invisalign. Each type of orthodontic treatment has its own unique benefits and is designed to meet the specific needs of individual patients.

ORTHODONTICS FOR ADULTS

It’s never too late to straighten your smile. More and more adults are getting orthodontic treatment as a way to boost their confidence, improve their oral health, and enhance their quality of life. Orthodontic treatment time varies depending on the severity of the individual case. It is well worth the time investment, as a straight smile can have a long-lasting positive impact on your oral and overall health. Our doctors offer several modern teeth straightening options that will give you a well-aligned smile faster and with minimal discomfort.

Advanced Orthodontics for comfortable treatment and fast results

Dr. Tran and Dr. Justene use the cutting-edge edge Individual Patient (IP) Appliance® system. It uses advanced, customizable brackets to deliver faster, more comfortable treatment and more stable results compared to traditional braces. Treatment with the IP system has been shown to be at least 6 months faster compared to traditional braces. The IP Appliance system uses the most advanced type of bracket available today. The doctors customize the design of the brackets for each tooth with the aid of a computer. The brackets do the main work in this system, not the wiring. Since there is no wire tightening, there is minimal discomfort.

Invisalign® Clear Teeth Straightening

Invisalign® is a modern, virtually invisible orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten your smile. Our doctors are Invisalign® Preferred Providers, a designation that is awarded for completing a significant amount of cases every year. We have a special offer for new Invisalign® patients of $500 off the full treatment plus free whitening once you have finished your treatment.

Braces options for teens

Orthodontic treatment can give your child a beautiful, confident smile and provide a foundation for lifelong oral health. The doctors treat teens whose adult teeth have come in, usually between the ages of 12 and 14 years. They use the above-described IP Appliance customizable brackets for faster straightening, more comfort and better retention. Our doctors are highly trained in the field of orthodontics and are very experienced in the orthodontic treatment of teenagers.
