Braces for All Ages
We provide traditional metal and ceramic braces for children, teens, and adults to correct misalignment and create functional, beautiful smiles. Our customized treatment plans address issues like overcrowding, crossbites, and protruding teeth through modern, comfortable appliances. With early intervention options and adult-focused solutions, we ensure effective tooth movement tailored to each patient's developmental stage and lifestyle needs.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
As a certified 5-Star Invisalign provider, we offer nearly invisible aligners that straighten teeth without traditional brackets or wires. These removable trays allow unrestricted eating and oral hygiene while delivering precise tooth movements through sequential plastic trays. Ideal for patients seeking discreet treatment, Invisalign combines aesthetic appeal with proven effectiveness for correcting mild to moderate alignment issues in both adolescent and adult patients.
Orthognathic Surgery
We coordinate surgical correction for severe jaw discrepancies that cannot be resolved through conventional orthodontics alone. This treatment addresses functional issues like improper bites and jaw joint disorders through collaboration with oral surgeons. Post-surgical orthodontic refinement ensures optimal alignment, improving both facial aesthetics and essential functions like chewing and speech for long-term oral health benefits.
Orthodontic Retention
We provide customized retainers to maintain teeth alignment after braces removal. Offering traditional removable, Essix-style, and fixed retainers, we ensure lasting results through proper post-treatment stabilization. Our guidance on wear schedules and maintenance helps prevent natural tooth movement over time, preserving the investment in orthodontic treatment while accommodating patients' lifestyle preferences and dental needs.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
We specialize in interceptive orthodontics for children aged 7-8 to address developing bite issues. This phase treats severe crossbites, overcrowding, and jaw discrepancies using appliances like palate expanders to guide permanent tooth eruption. Early intervention creates optimal conditions for permanent dentition, potentially reducing future treatment complexity while improving facial development and preventing more invasive procedures later.

Staff was warm, welcoming, and competent. Dr. Muller clearly communicated the plan for treatment and addressed all questions and concerns. Their pricing is very competitive! I was transferring my orthodontic care from another facility and they didn't bill me as if I was starting my treatment over. They met me where I was at- very considerate! I highly recommend!

We've been seen Dr Mardaga for about 4 years and we had never had any complain. Now that he is not there anymore this is the first time we arrived at my daughters appointment and we've been told that the doctor was not there and no one can see my daughter! No one called me to let me know this prior our appointment and I think I'm this is very unprofessional. If I don't show up or cancel my appointment the same day I would be charged anyway but if I get to my appointment and the doctor is not there, is ok?

Because of Dr. Mardaga's expertise in correcting bite imbalances and creating beautiful smiles, my daughter now has a smile she can be proud of for the rest of her life! After working with Dr. Mardaga and his staff for two years, it's been such a pleasure from the start to the finish! I highly recommend this entire practice!

I received orthodontic care from Dr. Mardaga and his staff many, many years ago and am now bringing my son here for care. They kicked right off with the same great service. Everyone is very welcoming, thorough and make you feel right at home. Very pleased.
