Since all people are different, especially when it comes to their wants and needs, we offer different braces to give everyone the smile they want. We are dedicated to giving our patients the orthodontic care they deserve.
Braces work by moving your teeth back into the correct position. You need to continue to visit the orthodontist regularly to ensure that your braces are working the way they should. They will need to be adjusted when needed to continue to do their job.
Stride Custom Braces
Stride Custom Braces are engineered to match your unique anatomy, giving you the smile you were
alwavs meant to have. From start to finish, every aspect of your treatment is customized just for you.
Traditional Braces
Even though there are many types of braces, traditional braces are still the most popular. Great strides have been made since they were first used, and they are becoming more comfortable and effective.
Traditional braces use stainless steel brackets and archwires to move your teeth into their proper position. Many teenagers like to decorate their braces with colored rubber bands to give them a colorful and unique smile.
Some self-ligating braces use ceramic or even clear brackets. They use a specialized clip instead of elastics to keep the wires in place. These clips decrease the pressure on the teeth.
Clear braces
Clear braces are less visible on your teeth than traditional braces are. Because of this, they are very common with teenagers and even adults who want better smiles.
Even though you can’t see them, care needs to be taken to maintain your oral hygiene. Clear braces are more likely to break than metal braces, and you can break them when eating. Ceramic braces are more commonly used on the upper front teeth than on lower teeth so that they are less likely to break.

How often do I need to come for adjustments?
Designing your smile before you get your braces means that we know your treatment plan is right from the start. As a result, we can eliminate multiple bracket repositioning and wire bending appointments. While every patient is different, you can expect a significant reduction of visits, typically required for adjustments.
What does custom mean for me?
Stride Custom Braces are engineered to match your unique anatomy, giving you the smile you were
always meant to have. From start to finish, every aspect of your treatment is customized just for you.
Custom Stride Braces come in a clear ceramic option and a metal option, yours to choose based on preference.
More Time Doing What You Love
We know your schedule is full and we respect your time. That’s why we take pride in offering superior custom treatment that allows you greater control over your calendar, allowing you more time to do the things you want to do.
Non-custom orthodontics gives you a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment, requiring multiple “lay-over” appointments for bracket -repositioning and wire- bending. You’ll get there, but it takes longer.
