Our Services
Braces
Braces that are made of high-grade stainless steel, are the most common type of treatment. Today’s braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever.
Invisalign®
The Invisalign® System is a series of clear aligners that are custom-made to fit your teeth. These removable trays gradually move the teeth into the desired location, no metal or wires involved! Invisalign® is available to teens and adult patients, based on their orthodontic needs.
Pediatric Airway Treatment
A constricted airway can severely impact the growth and development of a child. Dr. Bedoya evaluates every child to determine if they require pediatric airway treatment. Dr. Bedoya can expand the airway and often prevent obstructive sleep apnea and improve the child’s overall health.
Gingivectomy/Frenectomy
A portion of the gums or soft tissue fold of the lips/tongue can be removed with a laser. Dr. Bedoya uses a Spectrum laser that is specific for orthodontics and is highly effective, causing no patient discomfort and superior healing.
Retainers/Nightguards
During the main phase of orthodontic treatment, you and your orthodontist work hard to earn you a beautiful, straight smile. Safeguard that hard work by wearing your retainers. It is the best way to ensure that your straight new smile lasts a lifetime.
