 Our Mission Is: To provide the most Efficient and Effective orthodontic care in a fun environment and to treat patients with Dignity & Respect
Our objective is to achieve the optimal long-term results in terms of occlusion, aesthetics, and facial harmony.
Whenever possible, we employ facial growth to correct the malocclusion (bad bite) and thus avoid the unnecessary extraction of permanent teeth.
In order to provide the very best in care and maximum expertise, doctor and staff work together as a team in the planning and treatment of each patient.
We strive to create an energized, friendly environment that contributes to the success of our patients' treatment outcome.
- Your Time: We know your time is valuable. Our schedule is set up so we can offer you the most personalized, convenient, and expedient treatment.
- Stability: You see the same orthodontist each appointment who knows what was done at your last visit and what you need next. The same orthodontist in the same location for more than 20 years.
- Personal attention: Our appointment grid is set up to allow the orthodontist personal time with each patient, regardless of what stage you are in your treatment. We don't deliver your care in assembly line fashion.
- Family and Community / Relationships and Pride: We take enormous pride in the relationships we build with our patients, their families, and their communities. Quite often we have treated multi-generations of the same family. We stay involved in the community as well; we make it a point to visit schools in the area and meet the kids! Our relationship with our patients extends itself into ensuring your new smile lasts forever.
- No Substitutes: We don't take shortcuts when planning your treatment; nor do we impose treatment on a patient’s mouth that isn’t yet fully developed. We advise complete diagnostic tests (X-rays, digital photos and impressions of the teeth) at your consultation.
- Suresmile: Your treatment is "state of the art." We use the Suresmile technique, which drastically reduces the amount of time you spend in braces, and in our office! We also employ computer digital imaging, and modern sterilizers with outside monitoring of sterilization effectiveness.
- Digital X-rays: reduce radiation 50 times from the conventional X-ray film. We have state-of-the-art digital X-ray machines, including I-CAT. We have chosen this technology to enhance treatment care for our orthodontic patients. Using the I-CAT scanner’s high resolution images, we obtain highly accurate and detailed three-dimensional views of all anatomies such as bone, teeth, tooth orientation, tooth and nerve relation, airways and sinuses. I-CAT 3-D dental imaging is also used for Implant planning, TMJ and airway analysis, Oral Surgery planning, and to detect pathologies such as cysts and tumors.
- Nitrous Oxide: We use nitrous oxide to calm anxious patients as well as hyperactive children while getting appliances placed when necessary.
- Invisible Aligners: Virtually invisible Invisalign aligners that can straighten adult smiles without braces. Space-age low force wires are also available.
- Invisible Braces! Lingual Braces are custom designed braces that are bonded on the back of your teeth! Robotically manufactured wires do the straightening. We also offer Ceramic 3M tooth-colored braces!
- The Damon® System: Frictionless braces which reduce treatment time considerably and produce gentler tooth movements.
- A Super Cool Kids’ Club! Kids earn points for brushing and personal successes, which they can trade in for prizes!
- Flexible Payment Options: You are offered a choice of many payment options, including setting up an automatic payment. Our financial coordinators work with each patient to find the payment plan that best fits your needs. Your personalized treatment is our first priority.
