Services
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. These nearly invisible trays offer comfortable, discreet orthodontic care while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines. The treatment includes regular progress check-ups and digital treatment planning to visualize final results before starting.
Metal Braces
Modern metal braces use high-grade stainless steel brackets and archwires to effectively correct tooth alignment. Available with optional colored elastics for personalization, this proven treatment option provides precise tooth movement control for complex orthodontic cases across all age groups.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces offer a more aesthetic alternative to metal braces with tooth-colored brackets. These less visible orthodontic appliances provide effective tooth alignment while maintaining cosmetic appeal, particularly suitable for adult patients and older teenagers seeking discreet treatment options.
Forsus Appliance
The Forsus appliance addresses jaw alignment issues and bite correction during orthodontic treatment. This fixed device works with braces to correct Class II malocclusions by promoting proper jaw development and tooth positioning for improved functional and aesthetic outcomes.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics combines orthodontic treatment with corrective jaw surgery for severe bite issues and facial imbalances. This comprehensive approach addresses complex skeletal discrepancies to improve both dental function and facial aesthetics for adult patients with fully developed jaws.

Dr. Sullivan has been the best orthodontist! She and her staff are always extremely friendly and go above and beyond to make sure I'm comfortable and understand the next step we're taking with my children's teeth. I highly recommend bringing your kids to Dr. Sullivan and her team!

Highly skilled, excellent team who are also very customer focused. I just finished my Invisalign treatment plan to correct an out-bite. My top and bottom teeth have never been able to touch (even after braces in middle school) and now I can bite down and chew like a normal human :) 5 stars! Highly recommended!

Sullivan has been the best to my family and I! All three of my kids have seen Dr. Sullivan and her and her staff are the most thorough and friendly people ever. We love the extra mile they always go to to make us feel cared for and to really understand what's happening every appointment. Definitely recommend them :

I took my nervous 8-year old daughter for her first orthodontic exam and she loved the bright, fun atmosphere and super friendly staff. They even had her name on a chalkboard welcoming her as a new patient. As a parent, I enjoyed the streamlined functions of the check-in and evaluation. Dr. Sullivan had a positive attitude with my daughter and offered a reasonable plan of care related to her current needs. Bravo!

Very unprofessional. Every single time I went to a checkup on my braces they have done something wrong. For example, one day they didn't put new rubber bands on after taking the old ones off, which caused me to miss an important AP test as I had to go back to get the new bands on that they completely neglected to put on. Employees are also far from efficient. While getting a braces checkup, the lady working on my braces would stop whatever she was doing to talk to her colleague about taco bell instead of doing her job. Overall, very unprofessional.
