Services
Metal Braces
Metal braces offer versatile orthodontic correction for complex alignment issues. Our modern designs combine durability with improved comfort through smaller brackets and advanced archwires. Patients benefit from precise tooth movement capabilities that address severe crowding, spacing, and bite irregularities while maintaining cost-effectiveness compared to newer systems.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign provides discreet teeth straightening through custom-made, removable aligner trays. This system offers aesthetic advantages for teens and adults seeking subtle correction of mild to moderate alignment issues. Our certified providers create personalized treatment plans using 3D imaging technology to gradually shift teeth into optimal positions without traditional brackets.
Damon Smile Braces
Damon Smile systems use friction-free technology for more comfortable orthodontic treatment. These braces employ specialized clips instead of elastic ties to move teeth efficiently, often reducing treatment duration. Patients experience fewer adjustment appointments and improved oral hygiene access while achieving precise alignment results.
iTero Digital Impressions
Our iTero digital impression system eliminates traditional putty molds with precise 3D imaging technology. This innovation provides immediate visual feedback and enhances treatment planning accuracy for braces and aligners. Patients benefit from faster, more comfortable appointments with immediate digital models available for immediate treatment adjustments.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses developing orthodontic issues in children aged 7-11. The first phase creates proper jaw development and space for permanent teeth, while the second phase focuses on final alignment. This approach often prevents future extractions and complex procedures through early intervention.

This place is okay, even though I never get any feed back from Dr. Bailey on the treatment for my children. The office is very nice & clean, I've never had an issue up until today with a lady name Julia. I myself have been in the medical field for more than 20 years and I could never find my self being rude or disrespectful to any of our patients. I'm not sure why she felt the need to be so rude when I had a conversation with her today. When I asked to speak to management I was told there is no manager in this office. The lady would I spoke with about my concerns & complaint assure me that Dr.

If you are wondering, is this the Ortho to go to? Let me tell you, stop looking, you found her. Professional, knowledgeable staff that are willing to go above and beyond for your care. My son is on the spectrum, and they would find a way to make him feel comfortable, answer all his questions calming his anxiety, and just build a good founded bond with the patient. The only setback is that a tiny amount of the dental assistants may come off as rude, but it may be that they are having a bad day. A smile never hurts anyone right? No place is perfect, but this is the closest to it that I've ever experienced

The minute I walked into Bailey Orthodontics I knew immediately this is where I wanted to be treated. The welcoming environment, the up-scaled facility and my detailed consultation made my decision easy. This was 10 years ago! Now my children are patients as well as are my nieces and nephew. They absolutely love this place and I have been nothing but pleased with the end results! Highly recommend this place you will not be disappointed!
