Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. This treatment is ideal for patients seeking discreet orthodontic correction while maintaining their lifestyle. Our Invisalign Premier Provider has successfully completed hundreds of cases, offering personalized treatment plans with predictable outcomes.
Two-Phase Orthodontics
This specialized approach combines jaw development and tooth alignment for children, typically starting around age 7. Phase 1 creates proper space for permanent teeth, while Phase 2 ensures optimal alignment. Early intervention can prevent future extractions and improve long-term bite function for growing patients.
Surgical Orthodontics
For severe bite issues, surgical orthodontics corrects jaw abnormalities in combination with braces. This treatment addresses complex cases involving facial structure, bite alignment, and functional limitations. Our board-certified specialist coordinates with oral surgeons to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic results.
Short-Term Orthodontics
Focused on aesthetic improvements, this 6-month treatment straightens visible front teeth for adults with healthy bites. Using specialized techniques, we address crowding and spacing issues efficiently while maintaining comfort and minimizing treatment duration for cosmetic enhancement.
Clear Braces
These tooth-colored braces provide a discreet alternative to metal brackets while maintaining effective tooth movement. Designed for patients seeking less visible orthodontic treatment, clear braces blend with natural teeth and offer comfortable, reliable results for both teens and adults.

When I found out that both of my teens would need braces I was overwhelmed with the costs. We were referred to Dr. Gorczyca (fondly Dr. G) by a mutual friend and Dr. G. made it possible for us to get braces for both with her flexible payment plan. She and her team are wonderful. With each visit we were warmly greeted and while under her care, my teens felt at ease and were very comfortable in going to their appointments. Not only did we receive excellent care, but the outcome - two fantastic smiles. We can't thank Dr. G. and her team enough.

My wife took my son here. After many consults and 3 years of searching for an orthodontist that would agree he needed to have some of his teeth pulled, Dr Gorczyca answered a long standing prayer that it needed to be done. Then when we told her that the oral surgeon didnt want to do it either, she went the extra mile and had lunch with him to discuss why it was best for our son. Dr Gorczyca's office made us feel welcome from the minute we stepped in.
We have rarely had to wait and the atmosphere is positive. Lindsey has been an incredible help in our journey as well as we had trouble with insurance and finding a general dentist and oral surgeon. She also went the extra mile to ensure we were getting the care we needed. We are now just a little over a year in and our son's teeth look incredible! The change in his smile is phenomenal. We are very thankful to Dr Gorczyca and her team. They have become like family.

I had a great experience every time I went to Gorczyca for an appointment. Everyone is super friendly, they offer great advice and did a very good job with my teeth. It is a very fun environment despite being a dental office, and it would be a great place to take you or your kid of any age.
