Treatment Information
Braces
At Eversmile Orthodontics, we use metal or ceramic brackets and wires to gradually shift teeth into alignment and are a great option for all ages. They are a highly effective solution for correcting overcrowding, gaps, and bite issues, providing long-term results for a straighter smile.
Invisalign
Invisalign consists of clear, removable aligners that gently move teeth into place without metal wires or brackets. Designed for comfort and convenience, they offer a nearly invisible way to achieve a well-aligned smile while allowing easy maintenance of oral hygiene.
Retainers
Retainers help maintain teeth alignment after orthodontic treatment by preventing shifting. Available in removable or fixed styles, they are essential for preserving your straightened smile and ensuring lasting results after braces or Invisalign.
