Orthodontic Services

Oral health acts as a reflection of your overall well-being, emphasizing the importance of addressing orthodontic problems such as misaligned teeth, chewing challenges, or jaw misalignments promptly. Ignoring these issues may result in dental problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and abnormal enamel erosion. Orthodontic treatments play a crucial role in maintaining proper teeth and jaw function, promoting a healthy smile and facial balance, as well as enhancing chewing and speech capabilities. Whether you're considering traditional braces, clear aligners, or other orthodontic solutions, Dr. Palacios and our team will tailor a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and lifestyle. We take pride in creating a welcoming and supportive environment where your concerns are heard and your orthodontic goals are our top priority.

Traditional metal braces, commonly associated with the traditional concept of orthodontic braces, comprise stainless steel brackets and wires that are fastened to the teeth with rubber bands. Patients can personalize their braces by choosing from a variety of colored rubber bands, enabling them to create a distinct and individualized look.

Clear Braces

Ceramic braces or "clear braces" are designed to be less noticeable than traditional metal braces, making them a popular option for both teens and adults who are concerned about the appearance of their smile during orthodontic treatment. Additionally, ceramic braces can be just as effective as metal braces in correcting a variety of dental issues, including misaligned teeth, gaps, and bite problems.

Aligners

Clear aligners are transparent plastic trays designed to fit closely over the teeth, applying gradual pressure to reposition them gradually. This treatment is particularly suitable for correcting mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, providing a subtle yet efficient option for individuals seeking orthodontic correction.
