Teeth-Straightening Solutions for Teens and Adults
We offer a variety of orthodontic treatments tailored for every smile, from adolescents to adults. While we’re passionate about enhancing your smile, orthodontic care also plays a vital role in improving your oral health. Misaligned teeth and an improper bite can be challenging to clean, uncomfortable, and even painful. With our treatments, we can address these issues in as little as six months!
How Can I Tell if I Need Orthodontics?
You may benefit from orthodontic treatment if you’re experiencing any of the following issues:
- Overbite: Upper teeth that sit too far forward.
- Spacing: Gaps between your teeth.
- Underbite: Lower teeth that sit too far forward.
- Crowding: Teeth that overlap or are difficult to floss.
- Crossbite: A bite that doesn’t align comfortably.
- Pain: Chronic headaches, jaw pain, or discomfort in the upper back and neck.
Orthodontic Treatment Options
There are various treatment options tailored to your needs and budget. Here are a few:
Traditional Braces
Often associated with bulky metal brackets, modern braces are smaller, less noticeable, and just as effective. They’re easier to clean and more comfortable.
Clear Brackets
For a more discreet look, we offer clear brackets, popular among adults. They blend conventional orthodontics with a subtle appearance, making them hard to notice at first glance.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners like Invisalign have surged in popularity. These custom-made, transparent trays gradually shift your teeth into place and can be removed for eating, brushing, or special occasions.
The Cost of Orthodontic Treatment in Leduc
With a typical insurance plan, out-of-pocket expenses for orthodontic treatment usually range from $3,000 to $5,000+ after your coverage. Following an oral exam, we’ll provide an accurate quote so you can understand your insurance benefits and actual costs. Without insurance, treatment generally costs between $4,000 and $6,000+.
How is the Cost of Orthodontic Treatment Determined?
Understanding the cost of orthodontics involves several factors:
- The current state of your oral health, including teeth and gums
- The amount of movement your teeth require
- The type of orthodontic treatment you choose
- The duration of your treatment
Since every smile is unique, the best way to determine the right treatment for you and its associated costs is to schedule a consultation. Share your smile goals with us, and after examining your teeth, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs.
