If you are interested in achieving a straighter smile, our skilled dentists may recommend orthodontic treatment. Orthodontics, a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting irregularities in the alignment of the teeth and jaw, can enhance the health and beauty of your smile. We offer two main types of orthodontics in Bountiful, Utah: braces and Invisalign®.

Braces are the most common type of orthodontic treatment. Braces work to gradually straighten your teeth by using metal brackets that are connected by a wire. These brackets and wires work together to exert a constant, gentle pressure on the teeth. Invisalign works in a similar way, but rather than using metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligner trays to move your teeth. Both braces and Invisalign are effective for achieving a straight, healthy smile. Dr. Duke and Dr. Andrews will help you determine which type of orthodontic treatment is best for your smile. We always consider your personal preferences and individual dental needs when planning dental and orthodontic treatment.

To learn more about orthodontics and how we can improve your smile, we welcome you to call 801-295-7171 or visit us at Dental Designs of Bountiful today. We are dedicated to helping you achieve the healthy, attractive smile you deserve!

Invisalign®

Invisalign® is a revolutionary new way to achieve the smile of your dreams. Rather than using metal brackets and wires to straighten your teeth, Invisalign involves wearing a series of smooth, clear plastic aligners. The aligners are custom made to fit your smile and guide your teeth to their ideal positions. Approximately every two weeks, you will visit Dental Designs of Bountiful to switch to a new set of aligners to continue adjusting the alignment of your teeth. Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to brush, floss, and eat as usual. Most patients also find Invisalign aligners to be exceptionally comfortable. 

Our Invisalign-certified dentists in Bountiful, Utah, Dr. Duke and Dr. Andrews, may suggest Invisalign if you are interested in correcting the alignment of your teeth in a way that is more discreet than metal braces. Because Invisalign aligners are created from clear plastic, they are nearly invisible; no one will notice that you are straightening your teeth! Invisalign can be used to correct the same orthodontic issues that traditional braces are used for, including:

 

• Crooked teeth
• Overcrowded teeth
• Gapped teeth
• Problems with the bite, such as overbite, open bite, crossbite, and underbite

We welcome you to contact us today at 801-295-7171 to discover whether Invisalign in Bountiful, Utah, is right for you!
