Our traditional braces are the standard orthodontic treatment option – revamped with quality materials, increased comfort, and minimized visibility. We use high-grade stainless steel, thin archwires, and a wide range of elastic colors, allowing you to customize your braces.

Our clear braces, made out of ceramic, are the limited visibility variety of traditional braces. Unlike Invisalign™, which is a removable aligner, clear braces are attached to your teeth. Clear braces offer all the benefits of traditional braces with decreased noticeability.

Enjoy straight teeth today without the pain and prolonged treatments of the past!

Fatima is a college business student who always wanted to fix the crowding of her front teeth, as well as a crossbite. A smile plays a major role in a first impression, Fatima believes, and she needed her smile to be its very best. She chose ceramic braces because they are more discrete than metal brackets.
