Smile gallery

Michelle

Michelle initially presented with a chief complaint of crowding, a narrow palate, and a crossbite of the left lateral incisor. She was treated with fixed appliances in approximately 23 months. Note the increased smile width and the correction of the crossbite, both corrected with braces alone.

Michael

Michael initially presented with a chief complaint of crowding, a narrow palate, and an anterior and posterior crossbite. He also had high, blocked-out canines and an open bite. He was treated without the removal of teeth, with fixed braces for approximately 2 years, and finished with excellent occlusion. Note the improvement in the smile width, the resolution of the crowding, and the overall improvement in his occlusion and smile aesthetics.

Rachel

Rachel initially presented with chief complaints of crowded upper teeth and an underbite. She had a full cusp class III malocclusion, with severe upper crowding and a mandibular skeletal deviation to the right. Note the full anterior crossbite and the posterior cross bite. Options for treatment included braces or braces with orthognathic surgical correction. Rachel opted for treatment with orthodontics alone, with 32 months of fixed braces, and finished with excellent results. Through a combination of expansion and class III mechanics, we were able to improve the overbite and overjet, correct the crossbites, and achieve symmetric dental midlines. This also helped to produce overall improvement in facial harmony and symmetry, even though the lower jaw itself remained deviated slightly to the right.
