What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that is concerned with the treatment of irregularities in the teeth and jaws, i.e. correcting misaligned and crowded teeth, bite problems, and other orthodontic issues. Orthodontic treatments such as braces (metal, tooth colored, or lingual/invisible) and clear aligner therapy (Invisalign®, ClearCorrect) apply subtle pressure to gradually straighten your teeth.  Jaw misalignments can be addressed with orthopedic treatments (Expansion, Jaw advancement) or with surgical repositioning.  Our offices in Jacksonville, and St. Augustine, Florida, have received numerous testimonials from patients who have been delighted by their new smiles. If you have ever wondered if anything could be done to improve your smile, contact our practice. We will schedule a free exam to determine if you are a candidate for orthodontic treatment.
