Braces

Braces are the most common method of correcting misalignment of teeth. At our office in Marietta, we feature Self-Ligating Braces, which eliminate the use of ligatures such as elastic, rubber bands or metal ties. They also reduce time of treatment and the number of dental visits compared to conventional braces. Read More...


Invisalign

Invisalign straightens teeth through the use of a series of custom-made, nearly invisible, removable aligner trays. The aligners shift teeth gradually with less pressure than conventional braces. The aligners are replaced approximately every two weeks. The fact that they are removable allows you to eat, brush and flush as normal. The fact that they’re clear means that no one will even know you are wearing them. Our extensive experience with Invisalign means you can be confident of a gorgeous smile when choosing this option.  Read More...



Propel

We make a continuing effort to be up-to-date with new methods to provide you with an improved orthodontic experience and shorter treatment time. The Propel system makes it possible to reduce overall treatment time by as much as fifty percent when combined with traditional braces or Invisalign. The Propel method stimulates bone remodeling in the upper and lower jaw for a more precise and faster movement of your teeth. We are pleased to offer this system as a way to facilitate and expedite treatment effectively and efficiently. Read More...



Soft Tissue Laser Treatment

Soft Tissue Laser Treatment is often used in recontouring of gums (when gums are too high or too low on teeth). Excess gum tissue is often referred to as having a “gummy” smile. Benefits of this treatment include: less bleeding, it is painless and it is performed much more comfortably and is faster than conventional treatments.  Read More...


Orthodontic Expansion

Marietta Orthodontics makes use of advanced devices such as expanders, which widen the upper jaw and create space to correct a constricted jaw. It is most often utilized with young people and is attached to the upper teeth of the patient. Early evaluation should be completed to determine whether the palate is narrow to provide proper application of the device.  Read More...


TAD’s

TAD’s, or temporary anchorage devices, are made from a titanium alloy. They are small screws, or pins, that are placed in a patient’s mouth to help in positioning teeth in the correct direction in a more precise way. Because the devices are placed in the mouth and are smooth, they are not easily detected by others. Our orthodontists are fully qualified to place TAD’s.  Read More...


Orthodontics Surgical Treatment

Surgical treatment is sometimes used in correcting severe cases when orthodontic treatment alone isn’t sufficient to fix a problem. This may consist of such issues as severe overjet (upper front teeth visibly stick out further than lower front teeth), severe misalignment of teeth and abnormalities of the jaw bone.  Read More...
