Embrace Every Milestone With a Confident Smile

It’s important to start orthodontic care early. We suggest that children have their first orthodontic check-up by age 7. At this initial visit, the orthodontist will check for signs of crossbite, crowding, and other issues that could affect your child’s dental health. Early intervention can prevent more serious problems later on and may lessen the need for more extensive treatment.

Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for kids, though. At North Oaks Dental, we provide options for adults and teens as well. If you are looking for a less noticeable treatment method, we have solutions that are designed to be discreet:

  • Invisalign –  These custom-made clear aligners fit over your teeth and gradually shift them into proper position. Each set in the series of aligners moves your teeth into correct alignment. You’ll gain new aligners every few weeks to continue your progress. You can take them off for meals, brushing, and special occasions.
  • Clear Ceramic Braces – These modern braces use tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in with your teeth. Transparent wires connect the brackets, making the entire system less noticeable. Treatment moves forward consistently, since the braces remain fixed in place.

After achieving proper alignment, enhance your smile further with:

  • Teeth Whitening – Professional brightening removes years of stains and discoloration. You’ll gain a vibrant smile that complements your newly straightened teeth.
  • Dental Veneers – These custom-crafted porcelain shells cover imperfections. You’ll gain a uniform, flawless appearance that highlights your aligned smile.
  • Gum Reshaping – Reshaping your gumline brings balance to your smile. It creates ideal proportions between your teeth and gums for a polished look.
