Orthodontic Treatment Designed Around You

Because every smile develops differently, we offer several orthodontic treatment options at our Nashua dental practice. During your consultation, we will evaluate your teeth and bite and help you select the best approach for your needs and goals.

Traditional Fixed Braces

Traditional braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into healthier, more balanced positions. Modern braces are designed to provide predictable tooth movement while addressing a wide range of alignment and bite concerns.

SureSmile^® Clear Aligners

SureSmile^® clear aligners provide a discreet alternative to traditional braces. A series of custom-made, removable aligners gradually moves your teeth toward their planned positions. Clear aligners may be an option for many teens and adults who want to improve the alignment of their teeth without wearing traditional braces.

Clear Aligner Treatment

In addition to SureSmile^® clear aligners, we offer other clear aligner treatment options based on each patient’s individual needs. Digital treatment planning allows us to carefully evaluate tooth movement and create a customized approach to your treatment.

Orthodontics for Children

Early evaluation can help identify developing orthodontic concerns before they become more difficult to address. We provide orthodontic care for children and may recommend interceptive treatment when appropriate.

Interceptive orthodontic treatment can address certain developing problems while a child’s jaw and teeth are still growing. Depending on the child’s needs, treatment may include crossbite correction, palatal expansion, and other early interventions designed to support healthy development.

Orthodontics for Adults

It’s never too late to improve the alignment of your teeth. We provide orthodontic treatment for adults who want to improve their smile, bite, oral health, or overall dental function. Depending on your goals, treatment may involve traditional braces or clear aligners.

A Comprehensive Approach to Orthodontic Care

At Center for Dental Excellence, orthodontics is part of our broader approach to comprehensive dental care. We look beyond the position of individual teeth and consider your bite, facial development, oral health, and long-term goals when planning treatment.

For younger patients, early evaluation can help identify concerns related to developing teeth and jaws. For adults, orthodontic treatment can be incorporated into a larger restorative or esthetic treatment plan when needed.

Transform Your Smile with Comprehensive Orthodontics

Whether you are considering braces for your child, clear aligners as an adult, or early orthodontic treatment, our team takes the time to understand your needs and explain your options. At Center for Dental Excellence, orthodontic care combines personalized treatment planning with advanced digital technology and a relationship-based approach.
