Traditional Braces
Now that you have your braces, how do you take care of them? It's important for you to know how to properly take care of your braces throughout your entire orthodontic treatment.
Clear Braces
Clear ceramic braces are an exciting and popular alternative to metal braces. Like traditional braces, they are used by an orthodontist to realign and straighten the teeth.
Invisalign
Consider Invisalign to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted - without braces. A complimentary consultation with our doctor can determine if Invisalign is right for you.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase orthodontic treatment is a multi-step procedure that is started at an early age and then later completed when all of the patient’s permanent teeth are in place. It’s used to address teeth alignment as well as issues in the facial bone structure.
TMD (TMJ)
TMD is a complicated disorder with many possible causes and symptoms. Lippitz Orthodontics knows how frustrating this condition can be, and we want to help you manage it.
Retainers
Retainers are custom-made devices will keep your teeth in their perfect new positions and protect all the progress you’ve made with your braces.
Options for Braces
Traditional metal braces are always available. However, many people shy away from the idea of braces because they don’t want to deal with wires or metal brackets. Fortunately, there’s an option for you if this is the case. Invisalign clear aligners are comfortable and removable and take the same amount of time as traditional braces to straighten your teeth. The fantastic results are the same!
Other Treatment Options
While braces can benefit many patients, you or your family members may need more complex treatments to help with jaw alignment, the management of tooth movement and more.
