  • Underbite pattern with triple crossbite (all top teeth inside of the bottom instead of top teeth outside the bottom) with spacing between center front teeth. There was a lack of growth of the upper jaw and minimal cheekbone development. This patient commuted over an hour each way to the office for her bite/teeth correction. She rode with her father and listened to audio books along the way – now they have a special bond with their books in addition to a beautiful and more healthy smile!
                <br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong> Upper jaw custom clear expansion appliance, limited braces on upper front teeth, night-brace worn while sleeping. Treatment time: 14 months
    after
  • Adult with severe dental crowding, gum recession, periodontal problems with inability to properly clean between the teeth (due to crowding).
                <br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong> Clear new technology braces, SureSmile 3D customized wires, clear rubber bands. Treatment time: 9 months (stable periodontal issues, periodontal splinted retainer & happy patient!)
    after
  • Early orthodontic treatment: Baby teeth only. Excess lower jaw growth. 
                <br /><br /><strong>Appliance:</strong> Nightbrace was used to redirect jaw growth and normalize facial growth pattern. Treatment time: 12 months
    after
  • Severe tooth crowding with some permanent teeth and some baby teeth in combination 
                with a bad bite pattern. <br /><br /><strong>Appliance:</strong> Limited braces were placed (6 total braces) which created space for the developing permanent teeth. Treatment time: 13 months
    after
  • This was a teen braces treatment for severe open bite and spaces between the teeth.
                <br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong> fixed braces and removable rubber bands. No expander or removal of permanent teeth. Treatment time: 16 months
    after
  • This was a patient with dental crowding and crossbite.
                <br /><br /><strong>Appliance:</strong> Only Invisalign aligners were used (removable clear aligners) This patient traveled to Asia several times during his care which extended his treatment time. The Invisalign made treatment convenient for him as he could remove the aligners to eat and for his public speaking engagements. He plans to move back home to Asia in the future as well and is happy that his smile has greatly improved! Treatment time: 18 months
    after
  • This patient had upper braces (with a different office) only as a teen and never had her overbite fixed. She had clear fixed braces and customized SureSmile wires.<br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong> Clear braces and removable elastics. No permanent teeth were removed, no headgear or expanders were needed. Treatment time: Instead of spending two years in braces, she had a treatment time of 10 months.
    after
  • This patient had braces as a child and did not wear her retainers. She experienced a crossbite and increased dental crowding<br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong> She was treated with Invisalign to correct her teeth. Treatment time: 8 months with removable clear plastic aligners and now her teeth are perfect again!
    after
  • This patient had her kids in braces and never realized that she could get her teeth fixed too, especially without surgery! She had an open bite and could never eat a piece of pizza without a fork! The day she had her braces off she ordered a pizza!<br /><br /><strong>Appliances:</strong>She had clear braces and removable elastics in coordination with SureSmile 3D customized diagnostics. She did not need an expander, headgear or the removal of permanent teeth. Treatment time: 20 months – no surgery was needed to fixed her open bite!
