Orthodontic treatments at Family & Cosmetic Dentistry are designed to improve the alignment of teeth and jaws. Orthodontic treatments can help correct an incorrect bite, close gaps between teeth, straighten crooked or crowded teeth, and improve facial aesthetics. At our practice, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality, individualized orthodontic care tailored to meet the needs of each patient.
Orthodontic treatments are beneficial for both children and adults of any age. For children, orthodontics can help ensure that the teeth and jaws form properly during growth and development. For adults, orthodontics can help improve the appearance of teeth and correct any misalignments that may have developed over time. With both children and adults, orthodontic treatments can also help reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease by making it easier to keep teeth clean and healthy.
At Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, our team works with each patient to develop a customized treatment plan that meets their individual needs. Our experienced dentists will carefully evaluate your mouth, teeth, bite, and facial structure to determine the best treatment options for you. Treatment may involve traditional braces, clear aligners, or other orthodontic appliances. Our team will help you understand your treatment plan and explain what to expect throughout the process. We are committed to providing outstanding orthodontic care in a comfortable and friendly environment. Let us help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile you’ve always wanted!

Orthodontic treatment is generally not painful, although some patients may experience slight discomfort for the first few days after an adjustment of their braces or aligners. However, any pain should dissipate quickly and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers if needed.
The duration of orthodontic treatment depends on the individual patient and the type of treatment received. Traditional braces usually require 18-24 months to achieve ideal results, but clear aligners may take as little as six months or more than two years. Your dentist will be able to provide you with more information about how long your treatment may take.
Orthodontic treatments are generally safe and effective when performed by an experienced dentist. However, like any medical procedure, there can be some risks involved, such as gum recession or decalcification of teeth. To minimize any risks, it is important to follow all instructions provided by your dentist and attend all scheduled appointments. Your dentist will be able to provide more information about potential risks associated with orthodontic treatments. **
