Orthodontics in Renton, WA

What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontic treatment is designed to realign and correct the look of your smile. Regardless of your age, it’s never too late to start loving how you look. We customize each patient’s treatment plan so that you receive care specific to your needs, with the goal of making orthodontics as affordable and easy as possible.

Why would Orthodontic treatment be needed?

Crooked or crowded teeth can impact your self-esteem, and you might avoid smiling because of the way you look. It can also be difficult or impossible to completely clean and floss your teeth, which can lead to tooth decay, gingivitis, and even gum disease.

Who is a good candidate for Orthodontics?

We examine your teeth to determine if and when you’d benefit. There is no right age. For parents, it’s a good idea to bring children in for their first orthodontic consultation around seven to nine years old. For adults, it’s never too late.

What happens during Orthodontic treatment?

We perform an examination, take x-rays, and provide a consultation, discussing orthodontic options so you can choose what works best for your needs and budget. You can then expect to come in regularly to have adjustments or new aligners made over the course of treatment. Treatment can take anywhere from a few months to about two to three years depending on the work needed.
