Braces for Adults and Children

2 sisters pointing to their bracesCorrecting the alignment of the teeth can have a profound impact on the health of your smile. Not only are misaligned teeth an aesthetic challenge, but they are also more likely to harbor bacteria, which can spread throughout the rest of your body. This in turn can lead to a decreased immune response as well as other systemic complications.

To help you enjoy straighter, healthier teeth, Virgin Valley Dental offers conventional orthodontic services for patients of all ages. Patients who prefer more traditional types of treatment can select between:

Traditional Orthodontics

Our comprehensive orthodontic program prevents the need for patients and their families to see a 3rd party provider for their treatment. This minimizes the out of pocket expenses that you incur, and makes your care more efficient.

Tooth-Colored Braces

These braces perform similarly to conventional metal braces, but come in tooth-colored materials that blend in with your smile. Although they are visible, they are easily overlooked during casual social interaction.

Early Interceptive Orthodontics

What if you were able to take early steps to prevent the need for your child to have extensive orthodontic treatment later on? Early interceptive orthodontic treatment modifies the eruption patterns and jaw development of your child’s smile, so that their bite develops more closely to an anatomically desirable form. We recommend orthodontic evaluations on all children starting by age 7.
