The most trusted and affordable option for achieving your perfect smile. Our modern metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever, using high-grade stainless steel to effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues.
Perfect for patients of all ages with fun color options for bands.
Clear Ceramic Braces
Get the same great results as traditional braces with a more discreet appearance. Clear braces are perfect for teens and adults who want a less noticeable treatment option, and they’re priced the same as metal braces at our practice.
InBrace Hidden Lingual Braces
The ultimate in invisible orthodontic treatment. These innovative lingual braces are placed behind your teeth, making them completely hidden from view. They’re fully customized to your teeth and perfect for professionals and performers who want a truly invisible option.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Transform your smile without brackets or wires using removable clear aligners. Invisalign offers ultimate flexibility with fewer office visits required.
Perfect for teens and adults with active lifestyles, allowing you to eat what you want and easily maintain oral hygiene. We also offer Invisalign Teen specifically designed for younger patients.
Specialized Care
TMJ/TMD Treatment
Experience relief from jaw pain, persistent headaches, and facial discomfort.
Dr. Sturgill brings extensive experience from his training at Harvard University’s Facial Pain Clinic, offering personalized solutions including oral appliances, physical therapy, and specialized injection treatments to address TMJ disorders.
Sleep Apnea Solutions
Get better rest with our custom-fitted SomnoDent oral appliances for sleep apnea – a comfortable, portable alternative to CPAP machines.
These devices work by properly positioning your jaw to keep airways open during sleep, effectively reducing snoring and improving sleep quality.
For more severe cases, we also offer surgical solutions in partnership with local specialists.
Surgical Orthodontics
For cases where traditional orthodontics alone isn’t enough, we provide comprehensive surgical orthodontic care.
