Say goodbye to goopy, uncomfortable impressions. Our iTero scanner creates a detailed 3D image of your teeth in just minutes—no mess, no stress. These scans allow us to plan treatment with precision, show you digital simulations of your future smile, and get your aligners or appliances made faster.

Want to check in with your doctor without coming into the office? Dental Monitoring lets you to do just that. Using your phone, you can send secure images of your teeth and get real-time feedback from your orthodontist on a weekly basis. These check-ins are more frequent than traditional orthodontic protocols, allowing us to catch issues early, saving time and keeping your treatment on track no matter how busy your schedule gets.

In-house 3D printing

We make custom retainers and orthodontic appliances right here in our office with advanced 3D printers. This gives us more control over the fit and quality—and helps you avoid long wait times if you lose or damage your retainer.

Custom braces

We’re proud to offer custom braces that are designed just for your smile. Using advanced digital planning and patient-specific brackets, this system allows for more efficient movement, shorter treatment times, and fewer adjustments than traditional braces.
