Choose an Experienced Orthodontist for Your Smile Journey

You may find orthodontic solutions at your general dentist. However, your orthodontist has completed several years of advanced training and has many years of extensive experience in this specialty. He knows what’s needed for your teeth to move into proper alignment. He also understands what will give your child a healthy and beautiful smile as they grow up. You can trust our team to determine the ideal solutions for your or your child’s alignment problems.

Our team stays on the cutting edge of treatment options to deliver up-to-date care tailored to fit your family’s unique needs. In addition, your dentist and his team are compassionate and kind, using a relationship-first approach to treatment.

Your options include:

  • Traditional Braces – This option is the classic solution to orthodontic concerns. It uses metal wires and brackets to gently straighten teeth.
  • Clear Ceramic Braces – You and your child will love this discreet alternative to traditional braces. The ceramic brackets and barely visible clear braces offer much-desired subtlety during treatment.
  • Invisalign – Dr. Ford has options for children, teens, and adults to straighten their teeth with almost invisible clear aligners.
  • Space Maintainers – If a tooth falls out too early, an oral appliance can leave room for your child’s adult tooth to come in. It will save you money in the long run and help them avoid alignment issues.
  • Dentofacial Orthopedics – Your dentist can correct jaw development issues in children. This helps ensure their permanent teeth come in correctly and can even help with breathing issues.
  • Preventive Services – Early treatment can reduce the need for extensive intervention later. Your dentist will monitor your child’s alignment and provide preventive solutions if necessary.

To help you pay for your or your child’s orthodontic treatment, we have flexible options available. Our practice accepts many forms of insurance and offers in-house financing. You don’t have to put off orthodontic care because of financial concerns.
