Orthodontic treatment is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. With orthodontics, we focus on achieving proper alignment of teeth and jaws. This not only enhances the aesthetic appearance of a person’s smile but also improves oral function and overall dental health.

Orthodontists use a variety of tools and techniques to address misalignment issues. These include:

  • Crooked teeth
  • Overbites
  • Underbites
  • Crossbites
  • Gaps between teeth

If we can correct your teeth or jaws with a gentle approach, Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment for straightening your misalignments. For more information about what Invisalign can do for you, check out our page where we dive into the details:
