Braces for Kids, Teens and Adults
Braces are still one of the most dependable ways to straighten teeth and correct a bite. Small brackets bonded to each tooth hold a wire that applies gentle, steady pressure, and tiny elastics help guide the bite into place when needed. At each visit, Dr. Mack makes small adjustments so your teeth keep moving toward the result you planned together. If you're curious about the details, here's a closer look at how braces straighten teeth.
We offer two kinds of braces. Metal braces are strong and handle everything from mild crowding to complex bite problems. LightForce clear braces use tooth-colored brackets that blend in with your smile, which many teens and adults prefer.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners instead of brackets and wires. Each set fits snugly over your teeth and is usually switched out every 1 to 2 weeks, moving your smile a little further each time. Because the trays are nearly invisible and come out for meals and brushing, Invisalign is a favorite with busy teens and adults.
Aligners only work when you wear them, so plan on keeping them in 20 to 22 hours a day. Invisalign treats many of the most common orthodontic issues, though braces may be the better fit for very complex cases. Your free consultation is where we figure out which option makes sense for you.
Finding the Right Treatment in Hillsborough
Every treatment plan starts with a free consultation. Dr. Mack looks at more than your teeth. He considers the shape of each tooth, how your lips move and the shape of your face, so your finished smile looks natural on you. From there, he builds a plan around your goals.
