Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  First, your orthodontist in Hartbrook, WI, will do a full dental exam to determine if you are a good candidate for Invisalign. Invisalign can treat many alignment problems as long as they aren’t too severe. These include...
• X-rays

Preventive

• Space Maintainers
  Space maintainers can either be permanent or fixed. The most typical use for them is when children lose primary teeth before the teeth have a chance to fall out naturally. Without space maintainers, other primary teeth can shift and not leave enough room for the new adult teeth. A single permanent tooth that erupts through the gums and doesn’t have enough space to come in fully can cause significant problems with the other teeth.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Your child’s orthodontist removes the space maintainer when X-rays show that the adult tooth is attempting to grow in its place. Space maintainers can be a permanent solution for adults who have lost teeth or a temporary fill-in while they arrange to receive dentures or implants.

Implants

• Dental Implants

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Tooth Extractions
  Extracting one or more teeth to allow the remaining teeth to shift may be necessary for you or your child. This is especially true with crooked teeth, crowded teeth, or one tooth that grows on top of another one. Your orthodontist will advise you on which teeth you need removed before you can officially start treatment. Rest assured, we use powerful pain medication and always look out for the patient’s comfort.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Orthodontics is a unique specialty: a combination of medicine, science, and art that changes lives by improving oral health and creating beautiful smiles.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Invisalign has become the gold standard for orthodontic aligners. It’s a brand name of aligners that have achieved a level of popularity among orthodontists and patients due to its many benefits. But before anything, it’s essential to understand Invisalign, how it works, what the process is, who it’s for, and what to expect.
• Braces
  You are sure to have a lot of questions about braces if one of our orthodontists recently recommended them for you or your child. Dr. Daniel Holzhauer, Dr. Charles Hewett, Dr. Joshua Barta, and Dr. Benjamin Schneider would be happy to answer each of your questions during an orthodontic consultation. We know from experience that one of the first things people want to know is the types of braces available in our South Bend, Hartland, or Wauwatosa clinics.
