McGuire Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics

McGuire Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics is a dedicated dental practice with locations in Solon and Cleveland, Ohio, led by Dr. Lucas McGuire. The clinic specializes in providing comprehensive orthodontic and facial orthopedic treatments for patients of all ages, from children as young as two years old to adults. Their mission is to positively impact the quality of patients' lives by helping them achieve healthy, beautiful smiles in a supportive and personalized environment. The practice offers a wide range of services, including traditional metal braces, clear braces, clear aligners (Invisalign), and lingual braces. They are at the forefront of modern orthodontic care, utilizing advanced technology such as iTero® digital impression systems (eliminating the need for traditional putty impressions) and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) for detailed 3D imaging of the entire head, including teeth, bone, airway, nasal structures, and TMJ. This advanced imaging allows for a comprehensive understanding of each patient's unique needs and facilitates highly customized treatment plans. A key focus of McGuire Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics is "airway-focused orthodontics," which addresses how teeth and bite relate to breathing and sleeping patterns. They also embrace a "holistic orthodontics" approach, considering the patient's entire well-being, including facial structure, head, neck, and soft tissues, for more comprehensive and long-term results. For pediatric patients, they offer early orthodontic evaluations and interventions, including expanders, orthodontic appliances, and orthopedic face masks, to guide proper facial and oral development and prevent more severe issues later in life. McGuire Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics emphasizes patient comfort, short wait times, and excellent communication. Dr. McGuire is known for his conservative, non-extraction approach to orthodontics, aiming for a balanced face, healthy functional bite, and sensational smile. The clinic provides various financing options, including collaborations with Care Credit, to make treatment accessible. They pride themselves on a dedicated, friendly team and building lasting relationships with their patients, treating each individual as part of their family. Dr. McGuire is even available to patients via his cell phone for concerns.
