Children and Teens
A part of your child’s visit to our office will include an orthodontic evaluation. Dr. Lee will check to ensure that your child’s teeth are erupting properly and that there are no facial, jaw or bite irregularities.
Braces are typically applied between the ages of 10 and 14 although it is not unusual to start treatment earlier. Often early treatment may fix future problems, avoiding more costly, extended treatment at an older age.
Orthodontic appliances may include palatal expanders, habit or functional appliances, retainers or bracket and wire appliances. Dr. Lee will offer free orthodontic consultations to see if braces are right for you and your family.

Adults
So, you are an adult thinking about straightening your teeth...
Dr. Lee understands the significance of people wanting to have a beautiful, straight smile and the impact it has on a person’s self esteem. Whether it is one tooth that bothers you or several misaligned teeth, there are many options now for improving your smile with orthodontics.
Less noticeable braces or clear retainers (Invisalign) may be just what you need to uncover the smile you’ve always wanted. Dr. Lee understands what it is like to wear braces as an adult—she has recently worn them herself!
Invisalign
This type of orthodontic treatment consists of a series of clear aligners which will gradually move your teeth into proper alignment.
Dr. Lee has had great success treating many patients using this clear alternative to the traditional brackets and wires. Call today for a free consultation.
