At Avondale Dental Centre, we offer orthodontic systems to meet a variety of needs and treat patients of all ages, including children.
Whether you’re an adult considering Invisalign, a child in need of interceptive care or somewhere in between, we want to help.
Orthodontic options in our dental clinic include:
- Traditional Braces
- Invisalign® for Teens and Adults
- Interceptive Orthodontics
- Orthodontic Retainers
Traditional Braces Are a Practical Treatment Option
Traditional metal and wire braces are ideal for moderate to severe orthodontic issues. We also recommend them for children because they are fixed and can’t be lost or discarded.
With traditional braces, the dentist attaches brackets to the teeth and threads them with guidewires. You visit us periodically for wire adjustments.
Invisalign Clear Aligners for Discreet Treatment
Invisalign is a system of clear aligners custom-crafted to guide your teeth into straighter positions. This system is ideal for teens and adults who don’t want to wear bracket braces for a long time.
Some patients choose Invisalign for discretion, while others opt for it because there are no eating restrictions.
Interceptive Orthodontics for Little Smiles
Your Avondale dentist evaluates children around age 7 to determine whether they’ll need orthodontic intervention, including braces. After the dentist assesses your child, we share findings with you and lay out the options.
Treatments such as palatal expanders and space maintainers may mean less time in braces later on, or they can eliminate the need for orthodontics completely.
Orthodontic Retainers Protect Your New Smile Alignment
After orthodontic treatment, you’ll wear a retainer to prevent orthodontic relapse. Your dentist will provide instructions on when and how often to wear the retainer. It’s essential to follow the directions!
