Comprehensive Orthodontic Treatment for All Ages
Orthodontic care isn’t just about straightening teeth, it also improves your bite function and oral health. We take a comprehensive approach for patients of all ages. It’s never too late for adult braces or Invisalign, and it’s never too early to guide a child’s smile in the right direction.
Every treatment starts with a thorough consultation where we assess your teeth and jaw alignment using digital X-rays and 3D imaging. Then we craft a personalized plan to address your specific issues – whether that means fixing crowding, closing gaps, or correcting bite problems. No matter the challenge, our goal is to give you a healthy bite and a confident smile that lasts.
Braces: Traditional Orthodontics for Effective Teeth Straightening
Braces are a time-tested solution for correcting misaligned teeth and bite issues. Today’s braces are more advanced and comfortable than ever, making them a reliable choice. At Brace Central Orthodontics, we offer traditional metal braces as well as discreet options like clear ceramic braces for those who prefer a less visible treatment. These braces work by using brackets attached to the teeth and a flexible archwire that applies gentle pressure, gradually moving your teeth into the proper position.
Our orthodontic team customizes your braces to fit your needs and lifestyle. We use modern techniques and high-quality materials to ensure your treatment is as efficient and smooth as possible.
Invisalign®: Clear Aligners for a Confident, Invisible Smile
Invisalign clear aligners offer a nearly invisible way to straighten teeth, using custom plastic trays instead of braces. If you’re looking for a clear aligner solution to straighten your teeth, Invisalign® might be the perfect option for you. Brace Central Orthodontics is proud to be an Invisalign Platinum Provider, a designation reflecting our extensive experience with this system. Invisalign uses a series of removable, transparent aligner trays to gradually shift your teeth into alignment without any brackets or wires. These custom-made trays are virtually invisible when worn, so you can straighten your teeth discreetly. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about one to two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, steadily making progress toward your ideal smile.
Retainers: Maintaining Your Perfect Smile

Your orthodontic journey doesn’t end the day your braces come off or you finish your last Invisalign tray. Retainers are a crucial part of treatment; they maintain the alignment of your teeth and protect the investment you’ve made in your smile. After we’ve helped you achieve straight teeth, our Brace Central team will fit you with a custom retainer to hold your teeth in their new positions. This is an essential step to prevent your teeth from slowly shifting back over time.
We offer different types of retainers based on your needs and preferences, including removable clear retainers and traditional Hawley retainers. Our doctors will recommend the best type for you and make sure it fits comfortably. In most cases, you’ll wear your retainer full-time for the first few months after braces, then transition to nightly wear.
We’ll also make sure you know exactly how to care for your retainer. Always keep it in its case when it’s not in your mouth, keep it clean, and avoid exposing it to high heat. By following our guidelines, your retainer will keep your smile looking perfect for years to come. And if you ever need a replacement or have any concerns, our clinic is here to help.
