Have you heard of invisible braces? These are actually clear aligners, most commonly Invisalign. They straighten your teeth without needing any metal, wires, brackets, or rubber bands. This means no food restrictions, adjustments, or pain during treatment!

Our esteemed staff of orthodontists in Brookings loves helping patients of all ages find the right fit for their teeth. Invisalign makes an excellent alternative to traditional braces with enhanced comfort due to a smooth, thermoplastic, and shorter treatment time with exceptional results.

Braces in Brookings, SD

We understand that undergoing braces is a major life change. We want to help every patient feel confident during treatment, so we work closely with them to provide one-on-one support that makes life with braces easier.

For kids, teenagers, and adults, we offer clear and metal braces that straighten teeth, align the jaw, and lead to an optimal bite. This translates to greater oral health, easier dental hygiene, and improved self-confidence.

Your orthodontist in Brookings, SD, will customize every step of your treatment for braces. We use state-of-the-art technology to ensure maximum precision and accuracy. Every patient’s smile is personally crafted to suit their treatment goals and ensure the most beautiful aesthetics.

Types of Braces We Provide

Our team provides both metal and clear braces for children, teenagers, and adults. Depending on your style preferences, these braces allow you to customize your treatment and feel great about your smile while straightening your teeth.

Metal Braces

Braces work by exerting continuous pressure on your teeth, which subtly shifts them and your jaw into a more functional alignment. These are most effective in children between the ages of 10 and 14, whose jaws are naturally softer and easier to move. However, adults well into their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond can still typically see wonderful results from braces later in life.

Metal braces are an effective orthodontic treatment for addressing concerns such as crossbites, underbites, overbites, crowding, crookedness, and misalignment. Our team will work with you every step of the way to ensure your experience is stress-free and comfortable.

Clear Braces

Did you know that there is an alternative to metal braces that isn’t Invisalign? Between clear aligners and metal braces lies clear braces — a happy medium that offers the structural support of traditional braces with the more discreet appearance of clear aligners.

While they do still require a metal wire, the brackets are manufactured from clear or tooth-colored ceramic instead of metal. This creates a more demure look that naturally blends into your smile.
