About Braces
Why Orthodontic Care Matters
A healthy, beautiful smile can boost your confidence and transform the way you look and feel. If you’re self-conscious about your teeth, braces can correct your concerns and help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
When your treatment is complete, you’ll not only love your new smile—you’ll also have the confidence to share it. Throughout your journey, we’re committed to making sure you feel comfortable, informed, and cared for every step of the way.
How Orthodontic Treatment Works
Orthodontic appliances can be made of metal, ceramic, or medical grade plastic. They may be removable or brackets bonded directly to your teeth. Braces work by applying gentle, constant pressure to gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions.
Today’s orthodontics are more advanced and comfortable than ever:
Choose clear or metal brackets—and even customize with colors.
Wires are thinner, less noticeable, and designed for faster movement.
Clear Aligner therapy may be an option for your orthodontic treatment.
Treatment is possible and effective at any age.
Treatment Timeline
Treatment time varies from one to three years, depending on factors such as your age, case complexity, and treatment method. Your own involvement plays a big role—the more you follow instructions, the faster and more effectively your results will be achieved.
For children, early or interceptive treatment may shorten the overall process. Before you begin,
Dr. Wiggins or Dr. Boswell will review your options and provide an estimated timeline for your personalized plan.
