Braces have long been the cornerstone of orthodontic treatment. At Esteem Braces & Aligners, we offer modern, sleek metal and ceramic braces designed for comfort, efficiency, and aesthetics. Braces are ideal for treating moderate to severe alignment issues, including crooked teeth, overcrowding, and bite problems. The consistent pressure applied by braces gradually moves the teeth into their proper positions over time, delivering outstanding results for patients of all ages.

Invisalign has transformed the world of orthodontics by offering a discreet, removable, and highly effective alternative to traditional braces. Using a series of custom-made, clear aligners, Invisalign gently shifts your teeth into alignment without wires or brackets. It’s especially popular among teens and adults who want to maintain a natural appearance during treatment. At Esteem Braces & Aligners, we use the latest 3D imaging technology to design a precise Invisalign treatment plan tailored to your smile goals.

Orthodontic problems go beyond aesthetics. Misaligned teeth and jaws can cause a variety of issues, from difficulty chewing and speaking to increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Common orthodontic concerns include overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite, spacing issues, and crowding. Our team performs comprehensive assessments to diagnose your condition and recommend the most effective treatment solution. Early detection of these issues can prevent long-term complications.

For younger patients, we often recommend two-phase treatment—a proactive approach that guides jaw growth and addresses alignment problems early on. Phase one typically begins between ages 6 and 10 and focuses on promoting healthy jaw development. Phase two occurs once most permanent teeth have erupted and aims to fine-tune tooth alignment. This strategy can reduce the need for more invasive procedures later and leads to healthier, more stable results in the long term.

The American Association of Orthodontists suggests that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. At Esteem Braces & Aligners, our early orthodontic treatment options allow us to detect and treat problems before they become more serious. Early treatment can prevent the need for extractions, create room for crowded teeth, correct harmful oral habits, and improve facial symmetry. It’s all about setting the foundation for a lifetime of oral health.

Orthodontic care has come a long way with the introduction of laser technology. Diode laser treatment is a minimally invasive procedure used to reshape gum tissue, expose unerupted teeth, and improve the aesthetics of your smile. It’s fast, comfortable, and promotes quick healing. At our office, we incorporate diode lasers when needed to enhance the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment and ensure optimal results.

For patients with severe jaw misalignments or facial irregularities, surgical orthodontics may be recommended. This treatment involves collaboration with an oral and maxillofacial surgeon to correct skeletal discrepancies. It’s often combined with braces or aligners to align the teeth before and after surgery. Our orthodontists at Esteem Braces & Aligners are highly skilled in coordinating surgical cases, ensuring safety and precision throughout the process.

While orthodontics focuses on tooth movement, dentofacial orthopedics addresses the structure of the jaw and facial bones. This is especially beneficial in growing children whose facial bones are still developing. Using appliances like expanders, headgear, and functional devices, we can guide bone growth and create a balanced facial profile. This approach lays the groundwork for optimal orthodontic results later in life.

One common condition we treat is impacted canines—teeth that fail to erupt properly and remain trapped in the jawbone. If left untreated, impacted canines can lead to cysts, infections, and misaligned smiles. Our office uses advanced imaging and treatment planning to locate and safely guide these teeth into position. In some cases, minor surgical exposure may be needed, followed by braces or aligners to assist with alignment.

At Esteem Braces & Aligners, we’re dedicated to helping patients achieve healthy, beautiful smiles through personalized orthodontic care. Our team understands that every smile is different, which is why we offer a full suite of treatments backed by cutting-edge technology and compassionate service. Whether you’re a parent seeking early treatment for your child or an adult exploring Invisalign, we are here to support your smile goals. Call us at (786) 744-1570 to schedule your consultation and take the first step toward the confident smile you deserve.

 

The ideal age for an orthodontic evaluation is around age 7, but treatment can be started at almost any age depending on your needs.

Treatment duration varies, but most cases take between 12 and 24 months. Complex cases or surgical treatments may require more time.

Yes, for many mild to moderate orthodontic cases, Invisalign can be just as effective as braces when worn as prescribed.

Braces can cause mild discomfort after adjustments, but the pain is temporary and manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.

Dentofacial orthopedics focuses on guiding jaw and facial development and is most effective during childhood or adolescence, though adults may also benefit.

If you have an impacted tooth, such as a canine, we may recommend a combination of surgical exposure and orthodontics to bring the tooth into alignment safely.
