Services
Braces
Traditional braces correct misaligned teeth and jaws using durable brackets and wires. Ideal for patients seeking reliable, cost-effective solutions, this treatment improves oral health and enhances smile aesthetics through gradual, precise adjustments.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers discreet, removable aligners to straighten teeth without metal brackets. Suitable for teens and adults, this treatment combines comfort with advanced 3D imaging technology for personalized, nearly invisible orthodontic care.
Damon Smile
Damon Smile uses self-ligating braces that reduce friction and treatment time. This system provides greater comfort and fewer adjustments while achieving exceptional results for complex orthodontic cases.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses childhood dental development issues in two stages. Early intervention creates space for permanent teeth, followed by comprehensive alignment to ensure optimal bite and facial symmetry.
Emergency Care
Emergency care resolves urgent issues like broken wires or loose brackets. Our team provides prompt, effective solutions to alleviate discomfort and maintain treatment progress outside regular appointments.

Could not be happier with they way they've treated our family. Very nice staff, clean office. Lots for the kids to play with if there is a wait, which there never is. We also have an obnoxious schedule and they've been very accommodating. Karen is the best!

Dr. Fortna and ALL of the staff are so so so friendly! It is a pleasure to come see them for appointments. They get to know you and/or your child throughout the process.

We moved to PA from UT in the middle of my orthodontic treatment. I am so happy we chose to come to Family Orthodontics to. Continue treatment with Dr. Fortna and his staff. Because we had to travel a long distance for the appointments, they made sure to do as much as they could in one appointment. I loved that when I came in, I was greeted by name, each member of the staff was aware of my case, and ready to do what needed to be done. Dr. Fortna takes time to listen and educated during the appointments. I felt like they were doing what was best for my case. I highly recommend Family Orthodontics!
