- Dental ExaminationAt your first visit, you’ll meet our team, learn about orthodontics, and undergo a thorough exam to identify the best treatment options for you. We’ll review your dental and medical history, conduct a detailed oral exam including X-rays, and discuss financial details, insurance, and payment options. Our team is ready to answer any questions to help you make an informed decision about your treatment.
- X-rays
- Fluoride Treatment
- Space MaintainersSome alignment issues, especially minor crowding, can be corrected without braces through strategic interventions like space maintainers or dental adjustments in early childhood.
- Bridges
- DenturesMaintain good oral hygiene by brushing after every meal and flossing daily. Use fluoride toothpaste, and keep your retainer clean by brushing it and occasionally using denture cleaner. Avoid sugary foods and hard or sticky snacks that can damage braces.
- Oral Surgery
- Jaw SurgeryExperience with transforming gummy smiles into beautiful natural smiles without jaw surgery, using simple temporary anchorage devices (TADs).
- Tooth ExtractionsPhase One targets jaw development to accommodate all permanent teeth and improve jaw alignment. Identifying jaw discrepancies early, around age six, allows timely corrective action. This phase also aims to prevent the need for tooth extractions by addressing crowded teeth around age eight.
- OrthodonticsOrthodontics, also known as dentofacial orthopedics, is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities.
- Invisalign OrthodonticsI ended up getting “Invisalign” and they quickly made time to take the molds right then and there. Within a few days, everything was ready and finished.
- BracesI came in for an examination to see if I needed braces. From start to finish, the front desk help was super sweet and helpful, and Dr. Larson was very informative about the options of treatment. With a simple consultation, I felt more confident going back to get my teeth worked on by Dr. Stephen Larson.
