Services
Metal Braces
Metal braces use steel brackets and wires to correct misaligned teeth. This proven treatment effectively addresses various orthodontic issues for patients seeking durable, cost-effective solutions. Our team ensures comfortable application and regular adjustments for optimal results.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces feature tooth-colored brackets and wires for discreet alignment. Ideal for professionals and image-conscious patients, this treatment combines effectiveness with aesthetics while maintaining the structural benefits of traditional braces.
Clear Aligners
Custom-made removable aligners gradually straighten teeth without metal brackets. This modern solution suits active lifestyles, allowing easy eating and cleaning while providing nearly invisible orthodontic correction for mild to moderate cases.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening combines in-office treatments with take-home kits for lasting results. Our Colgate-approved system safely removes stains and enhances smiles after orthodontic treatment, maintaining your newly aligned teeth's appearance.
Retainer Insurance
Three-year protection plan covers retainer replacements due to damage or loss. This cost-saving program ensures long-term maintenance of treatment results while providing financial security against unexpected replacement needs.

This is THE best orthodontics office in the Jacksonville area.
Initially, I had a serious underbite developing and after seeing 3 specialists I was told that I would need advance jaw surgery. Considering the amount of money that I would need and the time off from work I simply could not afford it. I then came to this office and the doc told me right away it could be fixed with no issues. 6 months into the process and my teeth are now corrected with no apparent underbite. I'm telling you the doc performs miracles! The office is modern and comfortable with a friendly staff who never forgets your

Very clean. Very professional. The Dr. is very kind and knowledgeable. We never have a problem getting in if theres an issue (ex. bracket coming loose). I am very happy with our decision to have our three children treated here.
