Chance Orthodontics

Chance Orthodontics is a well-established and highly-regarded orthodontic clinic located in Knoxville, Tennessee, with an additional presence in Sweetwater, TN. The practice is led by Dr. Charles Chance, a graduate of the University of Tennessee's dental and orthodontic programs and a member of the American Association of Orthodontists. Chance Orthodontics prides itself on providing personalized and comprehensive orthodontic care for patients of all ages, including children, teenagers, and adults. They offer a variety of treatment options to suit individual needs and preferences. These include traditional metal braces, which have evolved to be smaller and lighter with customizable options like colored elastic ties, and clear braces, made from ceramic or composite materials for a more discreet appearance. They also provide clear aligners for teens, a popular and practically invisible alternative to traditional braces, designed for daily wear to gradually straighten teeth. In some cases, specialized orthodontic appliances or even external headgear may be recommended for more significant tooth or jaw movement. The clinic emphasizes the use of advanced technology to enhance patient experience and treatment efficacy. This includes the i-CAT® Cone Beam 3D Dental Imaging System for detailed 3D images of teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways, and bone, and the iTero Oral Scanner, which eliminates the need for traditional, messy impressions by creating precise 3D digital scans. They also utilize 3D printing technology for creating various appliances like retainers, tooth whitening trays, and mouthguards, often used in conjunction with clear aligner systems. Patient testimonials frequently highlight the friendly, patient, and welcoming nature of Dr. Chance and his entire staff. Many reviews praise the team for putting nervous patients, especially children and teens, at ease and for thoroughly explaining treatment plans and home care instructions. The practice is noted for its excellent results, contributing to improved smiles and increased confidence for its patients. They strive to make the orthodontic journey a positive and comfortable experience from the initial consultation to the final reveal of a beautiful smile.
