Your Evaluation
Our offices are warm and inviting, and provide state-of-the-art orthodontic treatment. Your first visit will include a full evaluation of your overall orthodontic needs, from the alignment of your teeth to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and any needed correction to all. Another element of your initial consultation will be an examination of your gum health and facial balance to determine if any major changes are needed to address larger issues.
Treatment Types and Options
There are many different treatment options, including braces and other appliances. Some will suit your treatment plan better than others. Braces aren’t like when you were a kid anymore. We offer braces that are less noticeable and have quicker treatment durations. Invisalign clear aligners are removable and easy to clean. Talk to a professional orthodontist like Dr. Prentice to find out your best treatment option right now.
Treatment Phases
The team at Prentice Orthodontics works with children as well as adults. We work with you to set the treatment pace, accommodate your schedule, and fit your budget. Whatever your needs, Dr. Prentice would be happy to offer a free consultation and formulate a treatment plan. For younger patients, we offer early treatment to address issues earlier than adolescents and prevent problems from becoming a larger issue. Early treatment is not ideal for all patients, however, so consult with Dr. Prentice if you have questions or concerns that you would like to address to ensure you are on the proper treatment plan. Our staff will recommend services only based on your individual needs.
