What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities. This field addresses misaligned teeth and jaws, giving patients functional and aesthetically pleasing smiles.
Orthodontic treatment involves the use of various appliances, such as traditional metal braces, clear aligners, and lingual braces, to guide teeth into their proper position. The goal is to improve oral health, enhance facial symmetry, and correct bite issues, ultimately leading to better oral function and well-being.

At Katz Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on combining modern orthodontics with personalized care. Our dental team specializes in creating customized treatment plans tailored to your unique dental needs. Whether you’re addressing facial irregularities, jaw alignment, or dental braces for misaligned teeth, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Our Orthodontic Treatment Options at Katz Orthodontics
Damon Braces
Damon braces, invented by Dr. Dwight Damon, use self-ligating technology that eliminates the need for elastic or steel ties. This innovative system reduces friction and improves comfort, offering faster treatment times and fewer adjustments. Ideal for correcting crowded teeth, misaligned teeth, and jaw alignment issues, Damon braces are a top choice for patients seeking effective results with minimal inconvenience.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® aligners are a discreet way to straighten teeth using clear plastic aligners custom-made for your smile, unlike metal braces. This removable option allows you to maintain optimal oral health by making it easy to clean your teeth. Invisalign is perfect for teens and adults with mild to moderate dental issues, such as crooked or crowded teeth. Ask about Invisalign Teen® for younger patients!
SmartClip™ Braces
SmartClip™ by 3M Unitek features a self-ligating bracket system that uses a specialized clip to secure the archwire. This design reduces friction and enhances comfort, making it an excellent option for those looking to straighten their teeth quickly. SmartClip braces work efficiently to correct upper and lower teeth alignment while minimizing appointments.
Lingual Braces (iBraces)
For a truly invisible solution, consider iBraces, which are placed behind your teeth. These lingual braces are custom-designed for each patient, guiding precise tooth movement and outstanding aesthetics. Perfect for adults and teens who prioritize discretion, iBraces are an advanced option for correcting upper front teeth and other alignment issues.
AcceleDent®
AcceleDent is a revolutionary device that accelerates orthodontic treatment by applying gentle vibrations to enhance tooth movement. Used in conjunction with braces or Invisalign, this innovative technology can reduce treatment time while maintaining comfort.
Retainers
Retainers are essential orthodontic appliances used to maintain the position of teeth after braces or aligner treatment. At Katz Orthodontics, we offer fixed and removable retainers, customized to fit your smile perfectly. These appliances help prevent teeth from shifting back to their original positions, ensuring the longevity of your orthodontic results. Whether you opt for a clear plastic retainer or a traditional wire retainer, our team will guide you in selecting the best option to protect your new smile.
