Services
Invisalign
Invisalign offers a discreet, removable alternative to traditional braces using custom-made aligners. This treatment gradually shifts teeth into proper alignment while allowing for easy maintenance of oral hygiene. Ideal for patients seeking aesthetic solutions without compromising effectiveness.
Braces for All Ages
Metal braces provide reliable, efficient correction for complex orthodontic issues. Our practice tailors bracket placement and wire adjustments to each patients unique needs, ensuring optimal results for children, teens, and adults seeking durable treatment options.
Two Phase Treatment
This approach addresses orthodontic issues in two stages, starting during childhood jaw development. Phase one creates space for permanent teeth, while phase two refines alignment, reducing future complications and enhancing long-term oral health outcomes.
Clear Braces
Clear braces combine the effectiveness of traditional metal braces with aesthetic appeal. Made from tooth-colored materials, they blend seamlessly with natural teeth while providing precise control over tooth movement for patients seeking less visible treatment.
Dentofacial Orthopedics
This specialty focuses on guiding facial growth and correcting jaw discrepancies in growing patients. By addressing skeletal imbalances early, we improve function and aesthetics, creating a foundation for healthy, stable bites and harmonious facial proportions.

Dr. Hummert is an extremely professional and a wonderful person who carefully listens to her patients needs and suggests the right treatment. I would highly recommend her as she did an excellent job fixing my teeth in a very short span of time. My Invisalign treatment with her went very smooth and I couldn't be happier with my results. Also, her staff is very friendly and kind to me and I would highly recommend this office to everyone, especially during Covid-19, they always followed the necessary guidelines and had there office clean all the time.

I was referred to Dr. Hummert from my Dentist. I could not be more grateful. She is excellent. From the first visit, she spent time with us, was honest and did not push us into braces before the right time. She is highly professional, and on time. She gives you the time you need, answers any questions and knows her craft. I was so impressed watching her! Boy is she good! I highly & strongly recommend Dr. Hummert as your Orthodontist. My child's teeth look wonderful! We truly could not be more pleased. Stop looking & just book Dr. Hummert now. You will be so happy you did and your child's teeth/mouth will be great!
