Decrease frequency of headaches
Improve breathing

your first visit to docbraces

When you visit one of our docbraces clinics for a consultation, digital x-rays and pictures will be taken of your teeth and jaw followed by a detailed examination by one of our Orthodontists. The Orthodontist will use the digital x-rays along with his or her visual exam findings to develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

At this stage, one of our friendly treatment coordinators will review the details of your prescribed treatment plan, explore financing options with you to find a plan that fits your budget, and answer any questions you may have.

Once all of the details are finalized, treatment can begin – even on the same day! You will be on your way to having the happy, healthy smile that you deserve!

treatment options

The team at docbraces is committed to providing our adult patients with the best treatment possible, which means we are dedicated to staying up to date on the latest treatment methods and technology. Based on our orthodontic expertise and the specific needs and wants of each patient, we are able to deliver a treatment method that is tailored for you.Two of our most popular treatment methods are braces and Invisalign. Both are great for improving oral health and aesthetics, but there are some differences between the two.

Invisalign

Invisalign uses a series of clear, surgical-grade plastic aligners that are custom-made to discreetly and comfortably reposition your teeth, based on a customized treatment plan created by your Orthodontist. The trays are virtually unnoticeable and can be removed at any time, which means cleaning and maintenance is simple, and you can continue eating whatever you like.

Each set of Invisalign trays are worn 22 hours a day and replaced every two weeks. Each new tray is slightly different and, over time, these subtle changes will cause your teeth to slowly move into their desired position.

Best for aesthetic purposes, such as misaligned teeth, Invisalign is ideal for a busy professional or if you want to subtly change your appearance.

braces

Braces technology has evolved so that they are far less noticeable and uncomfortable than they used to be. Best for fixing gaps in teeth, crowding, misalignment, overbite and underbite, braces are a functional solution to even the most complex cases. At docbraces, we offer clear braces, which are made out of a transparent ceramic material that does not stain, and friction-free braces, which do not require elastic or metal ties.

Clear braces are a great solution for those who don’t want to draw unwanted attention to their orthodontic treatment. Depending on the amount of treatment that is needed, clear braces may only be used for the upper front teeth, which are the teeth that are displayed most when smiling.

Friction-free braces utilize light, high-tech wires that move teeth faster and more comfortably than conventional materials. Without the need for tightening, fewer adjustments are required during treatment, while the ceramic and stainless steel used also give the brackets a smaller appearance.

direct billing (available in many docbraces locations)

To help make life a little easier, many of our docbraces locations offer to accept assignment of insurance benefits for patients whose insurance policy includes orthodontic coverage. This means that you don’t have to go through the hassle of submitting insurance claims and waiting for reimbursement, because we do it for you, and subtract the insurance amount from your treatment cost right away!

Take advantage of this service by providing us with your insurance information when you come in for your consultation. With this information, we can communicate with your insurance provider and determine if your policy includes orthodontic coverage, the amount covered by your policy, and whether or not you are able to assign benefits to a third party.

questions from our patients

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign is a unique orthodontic system that straightens your teeth with clear plastic trays in place of wires and brackets. These aligners are custom-made for your smile, based on a treatment plan created specifically for you by your Orthodontist. Over the course of your treatment, you will be provided with a number of trays. Each aligner tray will be slightly different, making small adjustments to your teeth and jaw alignment. Because the trays are clear, they provide patients with a discreet, “virtually invisible” approach to orthodontic treatment.

How long will treatment take?

Your treatment is as unique as you are, so there is no “one size fits all” length of time that you’ll wear your braces or undergo other forms of treatment. However, average treatment times typically range between six and 24 months and each case varies in complexity. docbraces uses the very latest in orthodontic technology to ensure that you receive the best possible treatment and outcome. Patients who practice good oral hygiene can also expect to have a positive impact on their treatment. Keeping up good habits like regularly flossing and brushing your teeth can also help your treatment go faster, as can complying with recommendations like wearing your elastics.

Does docbraces offer payment plans?

We sure do! docbraces’ goal is to make orthodontic treatment accessible and affordable for everyone who requires it. Your local docbraces team will work with you to find a flexible, interest-free financing plan that meets your needs, with no credit checks required. docbraces will not let finances stand in the way of providing the treatment you or your loved one needs or deserves.
