Orthodontics focuses on correcting the position of teeth as well as improving a patient’s bite and the appearance of their jaw. Orthodontic treatment was once restricted to children and young teens, but today, many older teens and adults of all ages are turning to braces and Invisalign to get the smiles they have always wanted.

The best-known treatment, braces use brackets, wires, and bands to correct orthodontic problems. Invisalign is an orthodontic system that uses clear aligners instead of brackets and wires. Orthodontic treatment can improve the health and function of your teeth, as well as enhance the health and function of your jaw and associated joints.
