Our Key Orthodontic Services
At Emerick Orthodontics, we offer a variety of orthodontic treatments tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient. Here’s a closer look at the options available to help you achieve your ideal smile.
Metal Braces
Metal braces are the traditional and most widely used orthodontic treatment option for correcting misaligned teeth. Made from durable stainless steel, metal braces consist of brackets attached to the teeth, connected by wires that apply gentle pressure to guide the teeth into their proper positions. Today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before, making them an ideal choice for correcting even the most complex orthodontic issues, such as overcrowding, bite problems, and significant misalignments. Metal braces are a reliable and proven method for achieving a beautifully straight smile, making them a great option for patients of all ages who want effective results.
Clear Braces
Clear braces offer the same effective treatment as traditional metal braces but with a more subtle appearance. These braces are made from ceramic or porcelain materials that blend in with the natural color of your teeth, making them less noticeable. Clear braces are an excellent choice for teens and adults who want a discreet orthodontic treatment option while still benefiting from the precision and control of traditional braces. Just like metal braces, clear braces use brackets and wires to apply pressure to the teeth, gradually shifting them into alignment over time. With clear braces, you can enjoy the effectiveness of traditional braces with a more aesthetic, less noticeable approach to straightening your teeth.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic solution that offers a virtually invisible way to straighten teeth. This treatment involves wearing a series of custom-made, removable trays that fit snugly over your teeth, gradually shifting them into the correct position. Clear aligners, such as Invisalign, are made from smooth, transparent plastic, making them an excellent option for patients who want a discreet and flexible orthodontic treatment. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing, providing greater comfort and convenience. Regular check-ups will ensure your progress stays on track. Clear aligners are ideal for teens and adults who want an effective yet convenient way to achieve a straighter smile without the appearance of braces.
