Traditional braces orthodontic treatment

Traditional braces

Braces remain one of the most effective ways to correct crowding, spacing, and bite concerns. They’re a great choice for many teens and children, and in some cases adults as well—especially when more complex movement is needed.

Common reasons for braces

  • Crowded or overlapping teeth
  • Gaps or spacing
  • Overbite / underbite
  • Crossbite or open bite

What to expect

  • Initial exam & records
  • Clear treatment timeline
  • Regular adjustment visits
  • Retainers after treatment

Invisalign® in Franklin Park

Teens and adults can often get a straighter, beautiful smile without metal braces.

If you’ve avoided orthodontics because you don’t want the look or feel of braces, Invisalign clear aligners may be a great fit. Aligners are designed to be comfortable and discreet, and they’re removable—so eating, brushing, and flossing can feel much more normal.

Invisalign advantages

  • Clear, low-profile appearance
  • Removable for meals & hygiene
  • Comfortable, custom-fit trays
  • Great for busy schedules
