Personalized Treatments for a Beautiful, Aligned Smile

Straightening and aligning your teeth to eliminate gaps, crookedness, twisting, and overlap is the aim of orthodontics. Common orthodontic techniques include the use of transparent aligners, such as Invisalign®.

Your bite, or where your upper and lower teeth meet, greatly influences your dental health. Improving your bite can help with speaking, eating, and the appearance of your smile and facial features. It can also lower your risk of cavities, gum disease, and excessive wear and tear.

Orthodontic Treatments at Lava Dental

Because we want to help you achieve a healthy, straighter smile, our dental practice offers the following orthodontic treatments:

Invisalign®

Invisalign® is a brand of clear aligners that can treat mild to moderate tooth misalignment. It is an excellent treatment for straighter teeth without using traditional metal braces. Because Invisalign® uses clear, nearly invisible plastic trays, it is ideal for individuals who wish to be discreet while undergoing orthodontic treatment. Invisalign clear aligners are custom-made to feel comfortable and fit perfectly in your mouth.

Fastbraces®

In contrast to traditional braces, which require several stages and usually take years to complete, Fastbraces® is an orthodontic system that straightens teeth by simultaneously moving the tooth crowns and roots in a single stage using specialized triangular brackets and square wires. By lowering friction and root resorption, this technique addresses problems including crowding, gaps, and bite concerns quickly, more comfortably, and more economically.
