We Treat Kids, Teens, and Adults

Orthodontic care isn’t just for kids. We treat patients at every stage of life.

Kids

Early orthodontic visits help identify jaw growth and bite concerns for kids before they become bigger issues.

Teens

The most common time for braces or aligners are the teen years, when teeth and jaws respond well to treatment.

Adults

It’s never too late to create your most beautiful smile yet. Talk to us about our orthodontic solutions for adults!

Invisalign® Options

Invisalign® uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gently move your teeth into place. They’re nearly invisible and can be removed for eating, brushing, and special occasions.

Many patients choose aligner treatment because there are no metal brackets or wires, they make it easier to brush and floss, and they require fewer office visits. This can be a great treatment option for teens and adults who meet candidate requirements.

Clear Braces and Metal Braces

Self-ligating braces vs. traditional braces, which is better?

Braces remain one of the most effective orthodontic treatments available and are ideal for correcting mild to complex alignment issues.

  • Metal braces are strong and reliable, and they tend to be the fastest option for straightening teeth. They are a great choice for kids and teens.
  • Clear braces are popular with teens and adults. They blend in well with natural teeth and are less noticeable than metal.

Dr. Peterson will help you decide which option best fits your needs and lifestyle.

Dental Retainers

Dental retainers are a critical part of orthodontic treatment for protecting your new smile. After braces or Invisalign®, retainers help keep your teeth in their new position.

We offer both removable and fixed retainers, depending on your treatment plan and long-term needs.

MARPE Treatment

MARPE, or Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion, is used for certain teens and adults who need upper jaw expansion but want to avoid surgery.

Dr. Peterson will evaluate whether this option is appropriate for your specific case.
