Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Our Diamond Invisalign Provider creates customized treatment plans using 3D imaging technology. Patients benefit from fewer dietary restrictions and easier oral hygiene maintenance compared to traditional braces. Treatment duration typically ranges from 6 months to 3 years depending on case complexity.
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct complex orthodontic issues through bracket-and-wire systems. Our team offers ceramic options for less visibility. Treatment includes regular adjustments every 4-8 weeks with average duration of 12-18 months. We provide comprehensive care for children, teens, and adults seeking durable orthodontic solutions.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses orthodontic issues in children before all permanent teeth erupt. Phase one focuses on jaw development and creating space for incoming teeth. Phase two begins after permanent tooth eruption to achieve final tooth positioning. This approach prevents future complications and promotes optimal oral development.
Orthodontic Appliances
We provide specialized orthodontic appliances for bite correction and jaw alignment. Solutions include palatal expanders, headgear, and functional appliances. These devices address developmental concerns and prepare patients for braces or aligners. Treatment plans incorporate both fixed and removable appliance options tailored to individual needs.
Emergency Orthodontics
Our emergency orthodontic care addresses broken brackets, loose wires, and other urgent issues. We offer same-day appointments for pain relief and treatment continuity. Patients receive guidance on temporary fixes until professional care can be provided. This service ensures treatment progress isn't compromised by unexpected problems.

My family has gone to Dr. Sankey and team for orthodontic treatment for years and now my youngest son and I are finishing up Invisalign services with them. We remain thoroughly happy with our services - from the professionalism and personal attention paid to us, to the convenience and highest level quality of care. I highly recommend Flower Mound Orthodontics to everyone needing orthodontic services!

Invisalign - Be careful that you aren't being told things to keep you stringing along and then at end when it's time for your retainer you are treated like the plague. Very disappointing that you can't voice opinion, that you are happy with where you are, the assistant was very rough taking the mold, when got retainer it was shoddily done with sharp edges left and then was not able to see Dr Sankey to share my concerns. It's a lot of money and they should treat patients right until the end valuing your opinion and your time.
