Transform Your Smile with Expert Orthodontic Care
At Floss & Gloss Dental, we believe a confident smile starts with proper alignment. Our orthodontic treatments are designed to correct crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth with precision and care—giving you a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime.
What Is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws to improve both function and aesthetics. When your teeth are properly aligned, you not only achieve a more attractive smile but also promote better oral health. Misalignment can cause uneven wear on teeth, difficulty cleaning, and even jaw pain if left untreated.
At Floss & Gloss Dental, we offer a range of modern orthodontic solutions—including traditional braces, clear ceramic braces, and discreet aligner systems. Each treatment is customized to meet your specific dental structure and lifestyle needs. Whether you’re a teen looking to correct a developing bite or an adult seeking a subtle way to enhance your smile, our orthodontic solutions deliver precision, comfort, and results you can see and feel.
Trusted by Leading Dental Organizations
We’re proud members of nationally recognized dental associations that uphold the highest standards of patient care and ethics. Our commitment to ongoing education ensures you receive modern, evidence-based treatment every time you visit.
Why Orthodontic Treatment Matters?
Straight teeth don’t just look good—they function better. Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and premature wear. Orthodontic treatment also helps balance your bite, preventing strain on the jaw and minimizing issues like TMJ (temporomandibular joint) discomfort or headaches.
At Floss & Gloss Dental, we approach orthodontics as a blend of art and science. Our treatments are designed to enhance your facial harmony, improve speech and chewing efficiency, and provide long-term protection for your teeth. Orthodontic correction isn’t just about straightening—it’s about optimizing how your smile looks, feels, and performs. With cutting-edge technology and experienced care, we make the journey toward your perfect smile smooth and rewarding.

Frequently Asked Questions
Considering braces or aligners but not sure what to expect? Here are the most common questions our orthodontic patients at Floss & Gloss Dental ask.
What age is best to start orthodontic treatment?
Orthodontic evaluation can begin as early as age 7, but treatment is effective at nearly any age. Many adults today choose orthodontics to enhance their smiles and oral health.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Treatment length varies depending on the complexity of your case. Most patients complete treatment within 12–24 months, though minor corrections may take less time with aligners.
Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
Yes, for many mild to moderate alignment issues, clear aligners can achieve results comparable to traditional braces. They’re removable, comfortable, and nearly invisible—making them a popular choice for adults and teens.
Will wearing braces or aligners hurt?
You may experience mild soreness for a few days after adjustments or new aligner sets, but discomfort is temporary and manageable. Most patients adapt quickly to the sensation.
How do I maintain results after treatment?
Wearing your retainer as instructed is key to keeping your teeth aligned. Regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene will help protect your investment in your new smile.
