Twaddle Orthodontics

We offer a variety of braces tailored to individual needs, including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and self-ligating systems. Each option is designed to correct misalignment and improve oral health efficiently. Our team guides patients through the selection process to ensure comfort and optimal results.

Clear aligners provide a discreet alternative to traditional braces, using custom-made, removable trays to gradually shift teeth into proper alignment. Ideal for adults and teens, this treatment combines aesthetics with convenience, allowing for easy maintenance and minimal disruption to daily life.

This approach addresses orthodontic issues in two stages, starting with early intervention for children and followed by comprehensive treatment during adolescence. It optimizes jaw development and creates space for permanent teeth, reducing the need for extractions or surgery later.

We specialize in solutions for adults seeking to improve their smiles, offering discreet options like clear aligners and lingual braces. Treatment focuses on correcting alignment issues while accommodating the unique needs of mature dental structures, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics.

Hybrid treatment integrates multiple orthodontic techniques, such as braces and aligners, to address complex cases efficiently. This customized approach leverages the strengths of each method, delivering faster results and enhanced comfort for patients with diverse orthodontic challenges.

Great experience. Dr. Twaddle and the staff are super thorough and seem to really know their stuff. My first time meeting Dr. Twaddle he was kind and seemed really calm. He worked well with his staff and seemed to really trust their expertise and judgment. When I came in for the application of the braces, the office was run like a well-oiled machine. They were several chairs lined up (with plenty of space in between) and the dental assistants(staff) prep the client and or perform some services and Dr. T moves from the chair to chair and assesses and provides treatment (changing gloves with each client). Kylie the dental assistant with me was very calm and thorough despite the complication of the brackets popping off.

I chose the clear brackets and she said they have a more difficult time with the rubber bands on the clear brackets. Needless to say, I had a good visit and look forward to seeing my smile change with treatment.

My daughter received her braces at Twaddle orthodontics and her teeth are ruined. She has cavities on every tooth surface. We fixed 3 last year and after this weeks cleaning we are scheduling to fix 10 more cavities. While she had braces never was I told that she needed to brush more. Our dentist advised that when he sees things like this after braces it is because someone put the bonding materials on the whole surface instead of where the bracket would go.

I do recall a lot of new faces at Twaddle in Columbia at the time. Perhaps students? When I questioned Twaddle, he got extremely upset and defensive with me. (Hard to picture, I know) He pulled up her photos taken during treatment. Every one of them showed no plaque buildup so my question is, what caused damage to all of her teeth? I might add that I did call their Columbia office and left a voicemail and they never returned my call. Hopefully Alayna was a rare case for this practice

We love Dr. Twaddle and his staff. They are all so friendly and welcoming. They are great at answering any questions that may arise. We recommend him to any that is looking for an orthodontist! Blake thinks you are the best Dr. Twaddle!

Highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking to fix their teeth/bite. Very professional and friendly place for all ages. They were able to continue my orthotic work that were put on in Europe with no troubles at all. If I could give a 10 star review I would!
