They strive to exceed expectations by focusing on patient comfort, effective treatment, and personalized care. LaRue Family Orthodontics offers a comprehensive range of orthodontic services to address various needs and preferences. These services typically include: Traditional Braces: While advances in technology have made metal braces more effective and comfortable, they remain a foundational treatment option. Invisalign® Clear Aligners: A popular choice for both teens and adults, Invisalign offers a discreet and removable alternative to traditional braces, using a series of clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Clear and Ceramic Braces: These options provide a less noticeable alternative to metal braces, utilizing clear materials or tooth-colored ceramic for a more aesthetic appearance. Early Orthodontic Treatment (Phase 1): For children, early intervention can help correct jaw growth issues, address bite problems like underbites, and create space for permanent teeth to erupt properly, potentially making later treatment easier and more successful. Cutting-Edge Technology: The practice utilizes modern orthodontic technology, which may include digital impressions (eliminating the need for traditional gooey molds), 3D printing for in-office creation of retainers and expanders, and advanced systems like LightForce™ braces for precise and efficient treatment. LaRue Family Orthodontics emphasizes individualized treatment plans, recognizing that each patient has unique needs and goals for their smile. They aim to not only create beautiful smiles but also to boost confidence and contribute to overall oral health. The practice is known for its patient-centered approach and commitment to creating a comfortable and stress-free experience throughout the entire orthodontic journey, from initial consultation to the completion of treatment.
