Traditional Metal Braces

When it comes to fixing both simple and complex alignment problems, traditional metal braces offer a dependable solution with long-lasting results. These braces are a proven method for straightening teeth and improving bite alignment.

With modern advancements, today’s metal braces are more comfortable and effective, making them suitable for a wide range of orthodontic issues. As you progress through your treatment, regular adjustments will bring you closer to your ideal smile. Plus, you can personalize your braces with vibrant elastics, giving your smile a unique touch!

Charlotte Clear Braces

Ceramic braces use color-tooth brackets for a discreet, less noticeable look, making them ideal for those who want to straighten their teeth without the visibility of traditional metal braces. They deliver the same effective results as metal braces, offering a refined and subtle option for achieving a beautiful smile.

While ceramic braces are a more aesthetic choice, they require extra attention to oral hygiene since the material is larger and more delicate than metal brackets. With proper care, you’ll enjoy all the benefits of traditional braces while maintaining a more discreet and polished appearance throughout your treatment.

Self Ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces are a great choice for those seeking an efficient and comfortable orthodontic treatment. These braces eliminate the need for elastics to hold the wire in place, which means fewer visits and less friction on your teeth. The built-in door mechanism helps reduce pressure on the teeth, allowing for faster adjustments with fewer appointments. Dr. Bond uses self-ligating braces to help streamline your treatment for a smoother, more comfortable experience.

ClearBond Aligners

Clear aligners offer a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth with the comfort of removable aligners. Using advanced technology, Dr. Bond customizes each aligner to fit your unique smile. These aligners are removable, giving you the flexibility to enjoy meals and maintain oral hygiene without hassle.

Retainers

After completing your orthodontic treatment, retainers are essential to keeping your smile in its perfect position. They help ensure your teeth stay aligned while your mouth settles into its new structure. Dr. Bond will guide you on the right retainer type for you – whether removable or fixed.

Removable retainers are easy to clean and maintain, while fixed retainers are bonded behind your teeth for continuous support. Wearing your retainer consistently will prevent your teeth from shifting, and Dr. Bond will ensure you know how to care for it so your smile stays as beautiful as ever.

Early Orthodontic (Phase I) Treatment

Phase I treatment helps guide the growth of your child’s teeth and jaw before all permanent teeth have come in. Dr. Bond evaluates your child’s dental development around age 7 to detect potential issues early. By intervening at this stage, we can prevent more complex problems later and improve the effectiveness of future orthodontic treatment.

Phase I often involves jaw expansion or creating space for permanent teeth, ensuring your child’s smile develops in the best possible way.
