WHY SEE AN ORTHODONTICS SPECIALIST?

To have the best smile that you can have

We all want to look our best and that includes having the best smile that we can have. Teeth, and sometimes entire facial structures, are permanently changed by orthodontic treatment. And that is why you want the most qualified person with the most expertise to create your smile or correct your bite.

What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontic treatment deals with diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of problems associated with growth and development of the teeth and jaws. Proper planning and execution is needed to achieve an esthetic smile and stable bite.

Right age for Orthodontics?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that the first visit to an orthodontist occur no later than 7 years of age. Significant problems of the jaws and developing teeth can be detected and timely intervention may prevent future complications.

Addressing orthodontic issues like crowding and improper jaw positioning early can help to prevent future oral health problems from developing.

Orthodontic treatment can help guide the natural growth and development of teeth to avoid crowding and teeth coming in crooked.

TREATMENT OPTIONS

Different Types of Treatment Options

At Valleyview orthodontics, we offer you treatment which involves the design and use of corrective orthodontic appliances, such as braces, aligners, expanders, headgear, functional appliances and even surgery, to bring the teeth and jaws into an improved alignment with the facial structures.

We provide a comfortable and caring environment, using state of the art technology to ensure that all our patients receive the highest standards of care. Every member of our team is dedicated to making sure all of our patients receive the highest level of care and attention throughout their treatment period.

Braces

If a straight smile is something you’ve always dreamed of, then you’ve come to the right place. At Valleyview Orthodontics we have a range of braces that will straighten your teeth and give you the smile you’ve always wanted.

Early Treatment

Early detection and timely intervention in some may prevent the development or reduce the effects of more serious problems of the jaws or teeth.

Treatment For Teens

For most, this is the optimal time for intervention as all of the adult teeth are present and some positive modification of jaws may still be possible. Creating an ideal bite sets a solid foundation for the maturing dentition.

Treatment For Adults

It’s still possible to experience a beautiful smile at any age! Adults form a rapidly growing population of orthodontic patients.

Invisalign treatment

Straight teeth, No braces

Invisalign is a suitable orthodontic treatment method for patients of all ages, children, teens and adults. How does this discrete treatment method work to create the smile you’ve always dreamed of? Invisalign aligners work by moving your teeth into a straighter, more attractive position. This happens gradually over the course of your treatment and without anyone knowing. Because the aligners are virtually invisible, no one will be able to tell you’re having treatment.
