Teeth, like teenagers,
want their space.
If you have overcrowded or misaligned teeth, then you can benefit from braces! Whether you’re a teen or an adult, all patients seeking to correct the alignment of their smiles are welcome to schedule a complimentary consultation to determine if they are a candidate. Check out some of the options our Phoenix Valley orthodontic clinic provides to patients below!
We’ve never met a smile
We couldn’t fix
When people think of braces, they most often picture the metal brackets and wires that come with traditional braces. As orthodontics has advanced, traditional braces have become lighter in weight and structure than they used to be when they first came about. Our traditional braces are made from high-grade stainless steel and use metal brackets attached to each tooth, linking one to another with a thin archwire. These brackets gently push your teeth to slowly move them into the desired position over the course of your treatment period. At E&S Orthodontics, we have a strong history of creating beautiful smiles in whichever way works best for you!
Ceramic Braces
We offer ceramic braces that work the same way as traditional braces, except that the brackets are made of transparent ceramic material rather than metal. These braces are more discreet, making them a popular choice for young adults in need of orthodontic treatment. Sometimes, ceramic braces can become discolored, so it is important to maintain an excellent dental hygiene routine while wearing them.
METAL BRACES
When it comes to straightening teeth, closing gaps, fixing overbites, or correcting underbites, metal braces are simple, effective, and produce fantastic results. The most common reasons that people get braces are to close gaps or straighten their teeth. Braces are used to alter the position and alignment of teeth within the jaw, gradually closing gaps that are too big and repositioning teeth that may be too close together or crowded. For young patients, the purpose of this is to avoid more serious tooth alignment problems in the future once the full set of adult teeth are in place.
DAMON BRACES
Are you looking for a more comfortable way to straighten your teeth? Damon braces may be the solution for you! Instead of using elastics to adjust and tighten, Damon braces are self-ligating. The wires are connected to the bracket and move as your teeth naturally move. They utilize special clips to straighten your teeth instead of the traditional elastics. Without extra elastics, it decreases the pressure put on your teeth, giving you a more comfortable treatment experience. In addition to less force, the clips are attached to your wire, which means your teeth can move faster!
Being a teenager is painful enough.
Braces don’t have to be!
Consider Invisalign® Instead.
As an alternative to braces, we offer Invisalign treatment. Invisalign uses a range of clear, removable plastic aligners that are custom-made by your orthodontist. Think of them as a cloak of invisibility for your teeth, except even more magical! These are convenient as they can be removed for eating and cleaning, so you can still mow down on your favorite treats while improving your smile! Clear aligners work by slowly shifting your teeth as you change out your aligners every two weeks. Each set of aligners takes the aligning process one step further. Sometimes, clear aligners are used after you have undergone another orthodontic treatment to help maintain your radiant smile until your teeth have settled.
