read moreDr. Gaudreault, along with the American Association of Orthodontists, recommends children are first seen at age 7. This allows treatment to begin at the most beneficial time and minimizes the length of time in braces. Unless a problem requiring early intervention is found, children are placed in our complimentary observation program to monitor growth and dental development. However, current technology enables us to treat the majority of orthodontic conditions diagnosed in patients first seen at a later age, in one comprehensive treatment phase.

read moreWhen we remove your braces, we will begin the retention stage of your treatment. The retention phase lasts for a minimum of 24 months. Your final orthodontic result depends on your retainers, so follow through with the hard work you've put in so far. Remember to remove your retainer before brushing, and brush your retainer before placing it back in your mouth. These retainers are the most commonly used after braces are removed. They are used to maintain treatment results and also help to prevent clenching and grinding at night because of the occlusal coverage they provide.

read moreOrthodontic elastics, or rubber bands, are used along with braces to add extra force to the braces to enhance orthodontic tooth movements. The most difficult part of wearing elastics is getting accustomed to them. The energy that the elastics provide can also create some temporary discomfort, and wearing them properly helps this to pass quickly, often in less than a week. If you are running low or lose your rubber bands, please contact the office and we would be more than happy to mail them to you.

They include all appliances, visits, emergencies, unlimited treatment time, prescription rinses, and two sets of retainers. There are no surprises. Our office is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts.

I must say that this place has been the best Orthodontics office that I have been to. My son David use to fight me to go to the dentist appointments, but since he started going to you guys, I have no problems. I want to thank the awesome staff for their patience, when my daughter decided to get sick during her impressions today! You guys are so kind-you can bill us for all the paper towel and soap we used!
