The health and safety of our patients and staff are our top priorities. We have implemented rigorous infection control protocols and safety measures in accordance with CDC guidelines to ensure a safe environment for everyone. These measures include:

• Enhanced cleaning and disinfection of all surfaces and equipment between patient visits.
• Requiring all patients and staff to wear masks, gloves, hair nets and promoting the practice of hand hygiene.
• Providing our staff and dentists with personal protective equipment (PPE).

The time it takes for braces to show results varies depending on individual cases. On average, noticeable improvements can be seen within a few months. Complete treatment typically takes 18 to 24 months. Regular check-ups and following your orthodontist's advice can help achieve the best results in a timely manner.

The time frame for receiving your dentures varies based on the type of dentures and your specific dental needs. Generally, it takes about 2 to 4 weeks from the initial impression to the final fitting. We strive to ensure your dentures fit comfortably and meet your expectations, so follow-up appointments might be necessary for adjustments. 

We recommend braces for patients aged 14 and up because, by this age, most of their permanent teeth have come in and their jaws have sufficiently developed. This ensures more effective and stable results. Additionally, younger patients may have less patience for the maintenance and care that braces require. Starting treatment at the appropriate age helps us provide the best possible orthodontic outcomes. 

We recommend visiting the dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings every six months. These routine appointments help prevent dental problems, detect issues early, and maintain optimal oral health.
