Services
SureSmile
SureSmile combines 3D imaging and robotic wire bending to create precise, efficient orthodontic treatment. This technology reduces treatment time by up to 40% while improving accuracy. Ideal for patients seeking faster results with fewer adjustments.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers discreet, removable aligners that gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. Custom-made using advanced imaging, it's perfect for adults and teens prioritizing aesthetics and convenience.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses complex bite issues in children aged 7-10, followed by comprehensive alignment during adolescence. This approach optimizes jaw development and simplifies final orthodontic results.
Craniofacial Treatment
Specialized craniofacial care corrects congenital deformities like cleft lip and palate. Our team collaborates with surgeons to restore both function and aesthetics through coordinated orthodontic and surgical interventions.
Surgical Treatments
Surgical treatments correct severe jaw misalignment through combined orthodontic and surgical planning. This improves chewing, speech, and facial symmetry for patients with complex structural issues.

Dr. Jacobson was very attentive and informative about a somewhat complex ortho case that my 9-year old is facing. We went over several options and my impression during the entire discussion was that Dr. Jacobson had the best outcome for my kid's treatment as his goal. There was no pressure to start right away. Instead, Dr. Jacobson was outlining the best time horizon for when treatment should start.
