Metal Braces & More
Most patients we treat at Vroman Orthodontics choose traditional metal braces to straighten their teeth. These are the most common type of orthodontic treatment, but you have other options, too!
After your initial free consultation, Dr. Vroman will talk to you about which treatment would be the best for you based on your unique needs and smile goals.
Fixed vs. Removable Appliances
At Vroman Orthodontics, we believe patients should be well-informed when it comes to their treatment.
It’s important to understand the difference between fixed and removable appliances. Fixed appliances, like braces, are attached to your teeth and aren’t taken off until you complete your treatment.
Removable appliances, like the Invisalign clear aligner system, are worn for 20-22 hours a day but can be easily removed to eat or brush your teeth.
Besides the obvious differences, Dr. Vroman uses Invisalign aligners to treat mild to moderate orthodontic problems, while fixed appliances are used for comprehensive treatment and more complex cases.
