• Prevention of Dental Issues: Orthodontic treatment can prevent or mitigate various dental issues, including excessive wear and tear on teeth, jaw pain, and problems related to bite alignment.

Our Custom Orthodontic Treatments

Traditional Metal Braces

For patients of all ages dealing with significant bite alignment issues, traditional metal braces remain a reliable orthodontic option. Ongoing advancements in orthodontic technology have made braces more comfortable and sleek. Your Laguna Hills dentist may recommend traditional braces for more complex orthodontic problems that cannot be effectively treated with clear aligners.

Invisalign®

Invisalign® offers an alternative to traditional metal braces for straightening teeth and correcting various dental alignment issues. Unlike conventional braces, Invisalign utilizes clear, custom-made aligners that are nearly invisible when worn.

Invisalign® Teen

Invisalign® Teen is specially designed for adolescent patients. While all permanent teeth must be in place for treatment, these aligners accommodate growing jaws and teeth structures. Invisalign Teen trays feature a blue dot indicator, allowing parents to monitor their child's treatment progress and ensure the aligners are worn for the recommended 20 to 22 hours a day.

Six-Month Smiles

If you're seeking a cosmetic orthodontic solution to straighten your teeth and attain a beautiful smile, consider Six-Month Smiles. This clear braces system is an affordable option for enhancing your smile's aesthetics in as little as six months. Six-Month Smiles are discreetly affixed to the fronts of your teeth, offering a speedy path to smile improvement.
