Traditional metal braces are the most recognized form of orthodontic treatment. Despite their long-standing popularity, recent technological advancements have made metal braces smaller and thinner, enhancing comfort and oral hygiene. This makes them a reliable and effective option for patients seeking to correct their dental alignment.

For patients desiring a more discreet orthodontic solution, we offer clear (ceramic) braces. These braces provide the same effectiveness as traditional metal braces but are significantly less noticeable. Although clear braces are slightly more expensive than metal braces, their subtle appearance makes them a preferred choice for teens and adults who want to avoid the metallic look.

In certain cases, orthodontic treatment alone cannot fully correct an orthodontic problem. Surgical orthodontics, or corrective jaw surgery, is necessary for adults needing surgery in combination with orthodontic treatment to achieve a functional and healthy bite. This surgery addresses skeletal issues affecting the ability to bite, chew, and speak. If surgical orthodontics is appropriate for your treatment plan, Dr. Marshall will collaborate with a local oral surgeon to ensure your jaws and teeth are positioned optimally for aesthetics and function.
