Treatment Options

Actual Patients

When it comes to moving teeth, there is NOT a One-Size-Fits-All solution! Schedule a free consultation with Drs. Christenson & Oakley to find out which treatment alternative will be best to give you the stunning smile and healthy bite that you deserve!

Traditional Braces

Metal Brackets – These can either be directly bonded to your tooth or attached to a band that fits over your tooth like a ring. The archwires fit in to the slot in the bracket to let us gently move your teeth.

Ceramic / clear – These work the same way as metal brackets, but they are made out of a clear ceramic. You can put clear O-ties on to have them blend in to your teeth, or choose color O-ties to make them really pop!

Clear Aligners

Ask our doctors about using clear aligners, like Invisalign, to get the beautiful, healthy smile you’ve always wanted. Aligners are a clear, customized, removable appliance that can straighten your teeth. Each aligner moves your teeth a little bit so that by the end of the series of aligners, you will love your smile. Clear aligners are designed to be worn 22 hours per day – taking them out to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush.
