Wilmington Orthodontics offers comprehensive orthodontic care for children, teenagers, and adults. Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that corrects dental and jaw irregularities to improve oral health. Effective orthodontic treatment requires a group effort from patients, parents, your general dentist, and the Wilmington Orthodontics team!
Aligned teeth are more resistant to decay and gum disease because they are easier to clean. A balanced bite offers more efficient chewing and harmony between the teeth, facial muscles, and jaw joints. Additionally, the improved aesthetics of the jaw, lips, and face can have psychological benefits, including an improved self-image.

Invisalign
Invisalign treatment is a technique that straightens your teeth without braces, using a series of clear, removable aligners that are custom-modeled to fit your teeth. The virtually invisible aligners gradually reposition your teeth into a smile of which you will be proud.
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces and are more comfortable today than ever before. Made of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. With metal braces, you have the option of adding colored elastics (rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful smile.
