Our Orthodontic Services
Personalized Orthodontic Care for Confident Smiles
Straight teeth are only one part of a healthy smile. Proper tooth alignment and a balanced bite can also make brushing, chewing, and everyday oral care easier. At Grow, our orthodontist evaluates developing teeth and jaws to identify crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and other alignment concerns. We offer early orthodontic assessments, traditional braces, and Invisalign® clear aligners with treatment plans based on each patient's needs.
Early Orthodontics
Early orthodontic evaluations assess jaw growth, tooth spacing, and developing bite concerns to determine whether your child needs treatment or monitoring.
Dental Braces
Traditional metal and ceramic braces gradually straighten crowded teeth, close gaps, and improve bite alignment with treatment tailored to each patient.
Clear Aligners
Invisalign® clear aligners use custom-made, removable trays to straighten teeth for eligible patients while making meals, brushing, and daily routines easier.
