Early Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention addresses developmental dental issues in children aged 7-10. This preventive care corrects malocclusions, crowding, and spacing issues while guiding jaw growth. Our specialists use interceptive techniques to create proper space for permanent teeth and correct harmful habits like thumb sucking. Treatment typically lasts 12-18 months and can prevent more complex issues requiring extensive correction later in life.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Patients receive new aligner sets every 1-2 weeks to gradually shift teeth into optimal positions. This removable system allows normal eating and oral hygiene while correcting bite issues and misalignments. Treatment duration varies from 6-24 months depending on case complexity and patient compliance with wearing requirements.
Braces
Traditional metal braces employ brackets and archwires to correct severe misalignments and bite issues. Our self-ligating Damon System reduces friction and treatment time while maintaining precise tooth control. Ceramic braces offer tooth-colored aesthetics for adult patients. Treatment typically lasts 18-24 months with adjustments every 6-8 weeks to monitor progress and maintain optimal pressure.
Adult Treatment
Specialized orthodontic solutions address adult dental concerns including crooked teeth, TMJ disorders, and bite misalignments. We offer discreet options like lingual braces and clear aligners alongside traditional systems. Treatment considers existing dental work and focuses on improving oral health while enhancing smile aesthetics. Average treatment duration ranges from 12-30 months depending on individual needs.
Adolescent Treatment
Comprehensive orthodontic care for teenagers addresses dental development and alignment issues during critical growth periods. Our specialists use traditional braces, clear aligners, and auxiliary appliances to correct bite problems and create optimal dental arch form. Treatment plans incorporate patient lifestyle considerations and offer customization options like colored elastics to maintain engagement throughout the 18-24 month average treatment period.

I couldn't be happier with the Bulleigh team and how they treated and took care of my son. They are all so welcoming and help him with all his needs to have a great set of teeth.
