If you answered “A” five or more times…

Schedule an Invisalign consultation at our Dayville office! That way, we can conduct an oral exam, learn about your dental history, determine the complexity of your case, and, ultimately, determine if clear aligner treatment is right for you. If the answer is “yes,” then we will gently move your teeth and bite into proper alignment with smooth, plastic trays instead of noticeable, metal braces.

If you answered “B” five or more times…

Talk to one of our dedicated orthodontists about traditional braces! This tried-and-true orthodontic treatment has numerous benefits, including that it can correct even more severe cases of malocclusion. It also has brackets and wires that can’t be removed, so you don’t have to worry about the added stress of keeping track of your braces.
