While we are professionals, we like to give our patients a fun, family-friendly experience at the office. We work with personalized systems to help countless families improve their teeth and smiles. At Dental Care 4 U, we provide many orthodontic treatment options to help our patients realign their teeth back to an ideal position.
Types of Orthodontic Treatments Offered at Dental Care 4 U
Our dentists can recommend orthodontic treatment to correct issues such as crowded teeth, teeth gaping, misalignment, and bite problems. We offer orthodontic care for both children and adults using tried and true methods, including:
- Traditional Braces: Metal braces are made of high-grade stainless steel and work to straighten your teeth with metal brackets and archwires. These braces can be used to fix various alignment problems and are a reliable resource for moving teeth back to a correct, stable position.
- Self-Ligating Braces: Self-ligating braces act like metal braces, but instead of elastics, use clips to hold the wires in the correct position. Self-ligating braces provide less friction between the teeth and are an excellent choice for those with tooth sensitivities.
- Ceramic Braces: Ceramic braces have clear, tooth-colored brackets instead of metal but work with metal wires and elastic bands to adjust the teeth into the correct position and are discreet.
- Clear Aligners: Clear aligners are removable trays that align the teeth. As an excellent choice for small alignments, they can be taken off for eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth and are easy to maintain. At Dental Care 4 U, we work with Invisalign to help straighten teeth.
