Services

Braces

Traditional metal braces provide precise tooth alignment for lasting results. Our customized treatment plans address overcrowding, spacing, and bite issues with durable, effective hardware. Patients receive regular adjustments and care instructions to ensure optimal outcomes.

Invisalign

Invisalign offers discreet, removable aligners for straightening teeth without brackets. Using 3D imaging, we create personalized trays that gradually shift teeth into ideal positions. This option suits teens and adults seeking aesthetic flexibility.

Clear Braces

Clear braces blend aesthetics with functionality using tooth-colored brackets. Ideal for patients wanting less visible orthodontic treatment, these braces correct alignment issues while maintaining a natural appearance during the straightening process.

Damon Braces

Damon Braces use advanced self-ligating technology for faster, more comfortable treatment. These braces reduce friction and eliminate the need for elastic ties, often shortening treatment duration while achieving precise tooth movement.

iTero Digital Scanner

Our iTero scanner creates accurate 3D digital impressions for treatment planning. This technology eliminates messy molds, improves diagnostic precision, and allows patients to visualize their expected results before starting treatment.

I love. Love. Love this place! The employees are so so super sweet, the Dr is very knowledgeable/nice, and the payment plans were affordable! They make the braces process fun, and all the children I see are always happy. My daughter was wary at first but now when I tell her it's time to go here. She beats me to the car! For the amount of money I spent. It was comparable to other places so I don't feel like I was robbed, and I'm glad that I came.

This is a great place! Everyone who works here is so friendly and professional. 2/3 of my kids have gone through their first round of braces here and we'll be back with the third in a few years!

After a few consults at other places, I was feeling uneasy about going through braces again but as soon as I had a consult here I knew I would be in good hands. They always seemed busy but I never had to wait long and they could always get me scheduled at the times I needed. Everyone is kind and gentle and visits never felt like a chore. It's a fun and upbeat place, but I never felt out of place as an adult going through braces.

I now have the smile of my dreams and while I can't say I'm going to miss the braces themselves, I will miss seeing everyone every few weeks. If you're thinking about getting braces, I HIGHLY recommend this place!

I had a few hiccups when I first got here, but Dr Wittenberger was able to get everything straighten out and assured me that everything would be okay moving forward. I am so happy that I decided to proceed with my treatment with Dr. Wittenberger, he is very precise in his work I am excited to see my results! Camilee worked with Dr. Wittenberger to put my braces on she was very informative, letting me know each step she was doing, very sweet and gentle. after getting my braces on later that evening I got a call from Dr Wittenberger asking me how I was feeling I was in shock, this guy wants to make sure his patients are pleased and satisfied. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get Orthodontic treatment. I am VERY pleased.
