A tooth is far more than what you see. Explore its layers, and discover why gentle pressure is all it takes to move one.
The hardest substance in the human body, about 96% mineral. It shields the crown, but it cannot grow back once it is lost.
We listen to your goals, examine your teeth, jaws and bite, and answer every question you bring.
Photos, X-rays and a precise scan reveal the full picture, so your plan is built on real detail.
Options, timeline and costs explained in plain language. You choose with confidence, never under pressure.
Braces or aligners begin their gentle work, with comfortable check-ins every few weeks to guide progress.
Retainers protect the result, so the smile you worked for stays exactly where it belongs.
Steady, gentle pressure tells the jawbone to dissolve on one side of a root and rebuild on the other. The tooth glides into its new place.
Crowded teeth trap plaque in corners a brush cannot reach, raising the risk of decay and gum disease.
A balanced bite spreads chewing forces evenly, which means less wear, fewer chips and less strain on the jaw joints.
Orthodontics was the first recognized dental specialty. Its professional association, the AAO, was founded in 1900.
Healthy teeth can move at any age. Roughly one in four orthodontic patients today is an adult.
Like fingerprints, no two sets of teeth are exactly alike, which is why every plan is made to measure.
