I had braces 15 years ago, and I remember that I hated having them tightened. It hurt. I have heard from numerous people that you use a different system of braces that does not require tightening at appointments. Is that true?

Yes. By using technology called "passive self-ligation," I do not have to tighten braces. I use high-tech H4™ braces, which use light and gentle forces to move your teeth. I have been using this technology for the past 12 years. I started with the Damon® system and now use the next generation of high-tech braces, the H4™ system. New technology just keeps making the braces experience better and easier for the patient.

I want to get the perfect smile, but I am concerned this expectation is unrealistic. How do you achieve the perfect smile?

Every patient is unique – there’s not one perfect smile! I help patients achieve wide, beautiful, healthy smiles that work with their individual features. At your first visit, I will give you a reasonable expectation of the smile you can expect to achieve after braces. I show photos of my finished patients with similar orthodontic problems so that you can get an idea of your outcome. I always attempt to meet or exceed my patients’ expectations. I believe I can help you get an amazing smile with a customized treatment plan. Call 1-800-4Braces to schedule your free consultation!
