Orthodontics
Welcome to Mechanicsville Family Dentistry, where Dr. Allison Tran and her team are committed to helping patients of all ages achieve beautiful, healthy smiles through orthodontic treatment. If you're considering orthodontics to straighten your teeth and improve your oral health, you've come to the right place.
What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. Through various orthodontic techniques and appliances, orthodontists like Dr. Allison Tran can straighten teeth, correct bite issues, and improve overall oral function and aesthetics.
Orthodontic Options
At Mechanicsville Family Dentistry, we offer a range of orthodontic services tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient:
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners, such as Invisalign, are a discreet and convenient alternative to traditional braces. These custom-made, clear plastic trays gradually move your teeth into proper alignment without the need for brackets and wires.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a popular clear aligner system that utilizes advanced 3D imaging technology to create a series of custom aligners tailored to your specific treatment plan. With Invisalign, you can achieve a straighter smile with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Appliances
In addition to clear aligners, we offer a variety of orthodontic appliances to address specific alignment issues, such as:
Retainers
After completing orthodontic treatment, retainers are essential for maintaining the results and preventing teeth from shifting back into their original positions. We offer both removable and fixed retainers to suit your needs and preferences.
