Customized care, confident smiles

What are braces?

Braces are a time-tested solution for straightening teeth, correcting bite issues, and improving oral health. At Davis Orthodontics, we make braces feel a lot less intimidating and a lot more empowering. We offer a range of options, including traditional metal, ceramic, and custom braces, so patients can choose the look and feel that fits their goals. Our team uses advanced tools like iTero scanning and Dental Monitoring to make treatment more precise and convenient than ever. Whether you’re a teen starting treatment for the first time or an adult looking to enhance your smile, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Why braces are still the gold standard

The benefits of braces

Braces remain one of the most effective ways to align teeth and improve bite function, especially for complex cases. Today’s technology makes them more comfortable, discreet, and efficient than ever before.

Proven results

Braces are reliable and effective for treating everything from mild crowding to severe bite issues.

Versatile treatment options

From traditional metal to clear ceramic and custom-designed brackets, there’s a style of braces to match every preference.

Advanced treatment monitoring

With virtual Dental Monitoring and 3D planning, we make the process more efficient, minimizing in-office visits without compromising results.

Types of braces

Custom braces

Traditional metal braces

Ceramic braces

Custom braces

Custom braces are one of the most exciting innovations in orthodontics, allowing our team to use digital planning to craft custom-manufactured brackets tailored to each individual tooth. This approach often results in more efficient movement, shorter treatment times, and fewer adjustments compared to standard braces. With this cutting-edge treatment, more patients are benefiting from personalized, precision-driven orthodontic care.

Traditional metal braces

Metal braces are the most recognized and widely used orthodontic solution—and for good reason. They’re incredibly effective for correcting alignment issues in patients of all ages. At Davis Orthodontics, we use high-quality, low-profile brackets that are more comfortable and less bulky than the braces of decades past. Patients can even choose colored bands to personalize their look. This option remains a favorite for its strength, durability, and predictability.

Ceramic braces

Ceramic braces offer the same reliability as traditional metal braces but with a more subtle, tooth-colored appearance. They’re especially popular with teens and adults who want a less noticeable option while still benefiting from a fixed appliance. Our ceramic braces are designed to blend in naturally with your smile, giving you confidence throughout your treatment.

The braces treatment process

Your complimentary consultation

You’ll meet with one of our board-certified orthodontists to review digital x-rays, talk through your goals, and explore your treatment options. We’ll answer all your questions and create a plan that makes sense for your lifestyle and budget.

Get started with confidence

If you’re ready, we can begin treatment the same day, saving you time and helping you take the first step right away. Our team will walk you through what to expect and make sure you leave feeling excited and empowered.

Ongoing care, your way

With tools like Dental Monitoring, we can track your progress virtually and reduce unnecessary in-office visits. You’ll still come in for key milestones, but much of your care can happen from home, with support just a message away.

Frequently asked questions

How long will I have to wear braces?

Treatment time varies based on each patient’s needs, but most people wear braces for 12 to 24 months. Custom braces and advanced monitoring may reduce treatment time in some cases.

Do braces hurt?

You may feel some soreness after your braces are first placed or adjusted, but it’s usually mild and short-lived. We’ll give you tips to stay comfortable and get used to the new feel quickly.

Can I still play sports or instruments?

Absolutely. We recommend wearing a mouthguard during contact sports, and most patients adjust to playing instruments within a few days. Our team can provide support as you get used to your new appliance.

My son actually looks forward to going to the orthodontist! Not only is the staff friendly and helpful, they make him feel seen — and that’s important to me when a kid is self conscious about his smile. They’re quick and efficient — and the dippin' dots don’t hurt either!
