Detailed Introduction
Keaton Orthodontics is a well-established orthodontic practice dedicated to providing comprehensive orthodontic care to patients of all ages. With multiple convenient locations in Pikeville, Paintsville, and Prestonsburg, Kentucky, they serve the tri-state area of Kentucky, Virginia, and West Virginia. The clinic emphasizes a patient-centric approach, aiming to create beautiful, confident, and healthy smiles.
Their services encompass a wide array of modern orthodontic solutions. For teenagers, they offer various types of braces, including traditional metal braces with colorful bands and clear ceramic braces for a more aesthetic option. They are also a Diamond-level provider of Invisalign and Invisalign Teen, a clear aligner system that offers a discreet alternative to traditional braces. Adult orthodontic treatment is also a significant part of their practice, recognizing that it's never too late to improve oral health and appearance. They address issues like crooked teeth, bad bites (malocclusions), gum and bone loss, tooth decay, and TMJ/TMD pain.
Beyond traditional orthodontics, Keaton Orthodontics also specializes in dentofacial orthopedics. This involves using removable functional appliances, such as headgear, to guide facial growth and development, particularly for younger patients with jawbone structure issues like crowding or overbites. This interceptive treatment can prevent more serious problems later, potentially reducing the need for tooth removal or lengthy treatment times.
The clinic prides itself on utilizing state-of-the-art technology, including digital X-rays with 3-D capabilities and digital models, to ensure precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning. The staff, with extensive combined experience, is highly trained in new technologies and committed to providing courteous and respectful care, aiming to make patients feel like part of their family. Initial consultations involve a thorough examination and discussion of potential treatment options, with a focus on outlining treatment plans, expected timelines, and approximate costs.
Keaton Orthodontics strives to offer personalized treatment plans that consider each patient's unique needs and preferences, ensuring comfort and satisfaction throughout the orthodontic journey.
