Treatment
Orthodontist Lexington
Invisalign®
We are a Platinum Provider for Invisalign® and lecture extensively on the Invisalign® appliance. Invisalign® straightens your teeth without wires and brackets, using a series of clear, customized, removable appliances called aligners.
Children’s Orthodontics
Though an orthodontist can enhance a smile at any age, there is an optimal time period to begin treatment. Beginning treatment at this time ensures the greatest result and the least amount of time and expense.
Adult Orthodontics
Braces aren’t just for kids. Tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups, including adults. A new smile can begin today.
iTero Intraoral Scanner
The iTero Intraoral Scanner enables us to take a 3D digital scan of the patient’s teeth and bite, make adjustments in real time and transmit the file wirelessly for processing. Our patients have a comfortable, impression-free experience.
Types of Braces
Technology has provided numerous options when it comes to braces. While regular metal braces are still widely used, clear braces are becoming increasingly popular along with removable appliances that can be used for mild cases of misaligned teeth.
Orthognathic Surgery
Corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) treats and corrects abnormalities of the facial bones, specifically the jaws and the teeth. Often, these abnormalities cause difficulty with chewing, talking, sleeping and other routine activities.
TMJ
The “Temporomandibular Joint,” more commonly referred to as the “jaw joint,” assists in the basic opening and closing movements of the jaw. Unfortunately, this joint is a common area for recurring pain.
Retention
When we remove your braces, the retention stage of your treatment begins. This lasts for a minimum of 24 months. Your final orthodontic result depends on your retainers, so follow through with the hard work you’ve put in so far.
