Find out why our patients are smiling!

The following case examples and before and after pictures of our patients illustrate what a skilled orthodontist can do to enhance your smile and help you maintain your optimal dental health.

Alonso

Alonso had 24 months of non-extraction orthodontic treatment utilizing the Herbst appliance and braces. He was an excellent, highly motivated patient. The Herbst appliance eliminated the severe protrusion of the upper front teeth and gave Alonso a tremendous boost in self-confidence. The dramatic facial profile improvement is as if there had been jaw surgery, but

Latifat

Following braces and tongue posture instruction, Latifat had lingually bonded retainers placed to keep the spacing from re-opening.

Luke

Luke had braces for 2 years. His treatment was with a functional appliance, the MARA appliance, for one year, followed by one year of conventional non-extraction orthodontics with Speed self-ligating brackets. Appointments were at 8 week intervals.

Kate

Kate had 18 months of orthodontic treatment with conventional braces. Appointments were scheduled at 8 week intervals and treatment was with Empower self-ligating brackets.

Ishmeet

18 months of conventional braces and a beautiful smile for a very cooperative patient.

Emma

Emma was treated with a Herbst appliance followed by conventional non-extraction orthodontics. The treatment time was 24 months.

Julianna

Julianna was a two stage orthodontic treatment. We corrected the severe dental protrusion in Phase I, a 12 month treatment. Julianna was later treated with non-extraction orthodontics in the permanent dentition.

Alicia

Alicia had severe protrusion of her upper teeth. Before conventional orthodontics, Alicia had a MARA (mandibular anterior repositioning appliance) placed. It resulted in a dramatic improvement in dental and facial esthetics without extraction of any permanent teeth.
