About Orthodontics
Life with Braces
Life’s a little different when you’ve got metal wrapped around your teeth. Find tips on diet restrictions, brushing, and more here.
Brushing and Flossing
Brushing and flossing is different with braces, requiring more care and attention to detail than oral hygiene without braces. Check out our quick tutorial, and you’ll be more than ready to tackle cleaning your teeth with braces.
For All Ages
You might think orthodontic treatment is only for kids, but did you know a good portion of orthodontic patients are over 19?
Types of Braces
Maybe bulky metal braces aren’t your style. Don’t worry: we have a wide selection of braces for even the pickiest of fashionistas.
Types of Appliances
Your orthodontic treatment may require the use of extra appliances. Take a look at some of them.
Palatal Expander
Palatal expanders are some of the most common orthodontic appliances. Find out how to adjust them here.
Two-phase Treatment
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends bringing your child in for their first orthodontic checkup by age 7, but do orthodontists really start treatment that early?
Emergency Care
Have a loose wire or sore gums? Some problems won’t require a full visit to your orthodontist.
