Why Straight Teeth Matter
Orthodontic treatment does more than improve your appearance. Straighter teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease. A well-aligned bite also reduces uneven wear and jaw discomfort over time.
Orthodontic Options We Offer
- Traditional braces for reliable, precise tooth movement
- Clear aligner therapy for a more discreet treatment experience
- Retainers to maintain your results after treatment

Frequently Asked Questions
What age should my child see an orthodontist?
We recommend an orthodontic evaluation around age 7, when enough adult teeth have come in to spot developing issues early. Treatment, if needed, often starts later.
Am I too old for braces or aligners?
Not at all. Many of our orthodontic patients are adults. Healthy teeth can be moved at any age, and clear aligners make treatment discreet.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Most treatments take 12 to 24 months depending on complexity. Dr. Franko will give you a realistic timeline at your consultation.
Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
For many cases, yes. Aligners work well for mild to moderate alignment issues. More complex cases may benefit from traditional braces — we'll recommend what's best for your situation.
