Start Orthodontic Treatment In 2024

Do you have an uneven smile that you’ve always wanted to see addressed? Then you should consider orthodontic treatment from our team. From clear aligners to braces that correct smiles in six months, your Maple Grove, MN, dentist can help you correct your smile and enjoy results that make you feel proud!

The Benefits of Treating Misalignment

When you undergo treatment to correct your uneven smile, this can help lower the risk of tooth decay and gum disease, as your smile is much easier to brush and floss. Correcting misalignment also relieves the jaw joints of unnecessary stress, so the chances of TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding) are lowered too. You also feel more confident in your smile, never hesitating to smile and laugh in public.

Invisalign®

With Invisalign®, our team will use a series of clear and custom aligners made from a plastic material. These fit comfortably and gently shift the teeth into proper position. You wear a set for two weeks, 20 to 22 hours a day on average. Most adults see optimal results in about a year, while teens may need 18 months. This offers results in a shorter time frame than braces, and the aligners can easily be removed and cleaned, and travel with you too!

RWB® Aligners

We also offer Red White & Blue® aligners, which are also made from a clear and comfortable plastic material. These are designed or address minor cases of misalignment, and can offer results in a much faster time frame. If you have minor misalignment concerns, or if your teeth have shifted since you received orthodontics treatment in the past, these could be very helpful.

Six Month Smiles®

Six Month Smiles® use brackets and wires like traditional braces, only these are clear and designed to offer results in a much shorter time frame than traditional braces. In fact, we’ve helped straighten smiles in as little as six months in some cases. In comparison, traditional braces require as much as two years in some cases. With this option, you can have an even smile by summer.

If you have any questions about our orthodontic options, or if you would like to schedule a consultation and see which treatments are right for you, then contact our team today to learn more. We want to help make 2024 the year you obtain an even and healthy smile, one you can’t wait to show off to the world.
