Early Treatment
According to The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), all children should see an orthodontist by the age of seven as this is the age when bite issues become noticeable as permanent, adult teeth begin to erupt.
Early orthodontic intervention may include removable or fixed appliances that can provide more room for crowded, erupting teeth, maintain space for teeth that have not yet come in, reduce the possibility of tooth extraction, and reduce the overall amount of time needed for treatment.
Oral habits, like thumb-sucking and mouth breathing, can lead to dental issues that happen naturally. Early evaluation allows an orthodontic professional to assess your child’s specific needs. Dr. Shafer can detect any possible anomalies on an x-ray and recommend treatment plans depending on your child’s results.
Treatments We Offer
Dr. Shafer and our team offer the most state-of-the-art treatments for our patients that fit your lifestyle and help you achieve your smile goals. In 21+ years, we have helped thousands of patients by creating stunning, sensational smiles for a lifetime.
Metal Braces
The most common type, metal braces are strong and withstand most types of orthodontic treatment. Today’s metal braces are smaller, sleeker, and more comfortable than ever before. With metal braces, you are able to choose colors and tie in wires to personalize your orthodontic treatment.
Clear Ceramic Braces
Tooth-colored braces and brackets are made of translucent (clear) material, making them virtually invisible. They are most popular with adult patients, due to their cosmetic appeal.
Invisalign® Clear Aligners & Invisalign Teen®
Custom-made plastic aligner trays are nearly invisible, comfortable, and removable, Invisalign and Invisalign Teen are created by computer simulation to gradually move teeth without traditional wires and brackets. The clear aligners give you more comfort and have no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. They also allow you to continue to eat and drink what you want. Dr. Shafer is a Platinum Provider of Invisalign, meaning he is in the Top 1% of Invisalign Providers in the country!
Damon Braces
We also offer Damon Braces, which use “sliding door” technology that allows the wire to slide back and forth within the brackets. This causes less friction and results in greater comfort for patients. In addition, Damon braces often reduce both treatment time and the number of adjustments that are usually performed.
