Orthodontic care for every smile, every age.

Treatment Options

Orthodontic care for every smile, every age.

Modern braces, Invisalign Clear Aligners, teen-specific care, and early interceptive treatment — all delivered with the same patient-first approach our families have trusted for over a decade.

Our Treatment Options

Traditional Metal Braces

Our most comprehensive and cost-effective option. Modern metal brackets are smaller and more comfortable than ever before. Ideal for patients of all ages and all complexity levels — including severe crowding, spacing, and bite issues. Average treatment time: 18-24 months.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Nearly invisible, removable aligners crafted from Invisalign's patented SmartTrack material. Change trays every 1-2 weeks as teeth gradually shift. Remove for eating, brushing, and special occasions. As an Invisalign Diamond Provider, Dr. Vasquez is in the top 1% of providers nationwide. Average treatment time: 12-18 months.

Teen-Specific Treatments

We offer both metal braces and Invisalign Teen — a version designed specifically for growing teens with compliance indicators, extra replacement aligners, and accommodations for wisdom teeth. Our team is experienced at making teens feel comfortable and confident throughout treatment.

What to Expect at Every Stage

    Digital X-rays, 3D iTero scans, and photos give us a complete picture of your teeth, jaws, and bite — no messy impressions required.

  2. Treatment Planning

    Dr. Vasquez presents your options with projected outcomes using our iTero simulation software. You choose the path that fits your life.

  4. Progress Appointments

    Check-ins every 6-8 weeks to monitor progress, make adjustments, and keep your treatment moving efficiently toward your goal.

  5. Final Reveal & Retention

    Braces off day is a milestone we celebrate together. Your custom retainer protects your results for life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often from patients and families.

At what age should my child have an orthodontic evaluation?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial evaluation by age 7. This allows us to detect early issues like crowding or bite problems while they're easiest to address — sometimes preventing more complex treatment later.

How long does orthodontic treatment typically take?

Treatment time varies based on the complexity of your case. Most patients complete treatment in 12-24 months. During your free consultation, Dr. Vasquez will provide a personalized timeline based on your specific needs.

Does insurance cover orthodontic treatment?

Many dental insurance plans include an orthodontic benefit, typically ranging from $1,000-$2,000 lifetime. We accept most major insurance plans and our financial coordinator will verify your specific benefits before your first appointment.

Is Invisalign as effective as traditional braces?

For most cases, yes. Invisalign is highly effective for mild to moderate crowding, spacing, and bite issues. For very complex cases, traditional braces may still provide more precise control. Dr. Vasquez will recommend the most effective option for your specific situation.

How much does orthodontic treatment cost?

Costs vary depending on treatment type and complexity. Traditional braces range from $4,500-$6,500, while Invisalign typically ranges from $5,000-$7,500. We offer $0-down financing and flexible monthly payment plans to make treatment accessible for everyone.
