How Orthodontics Works

Orthodontic appliances are made of metal, plastic or ceramic. They may be the typical braces bonded (glued) to the teeth or there may be a removable appliance (i.e.: Invisalign®, expanders, retainers). By placing a gentle, constant force on teeth in a carefully controlled direction, braces slowly move teeth into their correct positions. Dr. Jordan uses the latest, cutting-edge technology and materials to move teeth as quickly and safely as possible.
