Detailed Introduction
Somerset Orthodontic Specialists is a well-established orthodontic clinic with multiple locations in New Jersey, specifically in Somerville, Hillsborough, and Montgomery. The practice is led by highly qualified and board-certified orthodontists, Dr. Robert Peterman and Dr. Michael Fogge.
The clinic is dedicated to providing high-quality orthodontic care for patients of all ages, from children and teens to adults. They emphasize a patient-centered approach, focusing on creating a comfortable, welcoming, and family-friendly atmosphere. Their team is known for being professional, patient, kind, and compassionate, ensuring that patients feel at ease throughout their treatment journey.
Somerset Orthodontic Specialists offers a comprehensive array of orthodontic treatments utilizing cutting-edge technology. These services include:
Traditional Metal Braces: Made from high-grade stainless steel, these are a common and effective option.
Clear (Ceramic) Braces: Less visible than metal braces, ideal for older teenagers and adults seeking a more aesthetic option.
Self-Ligating Braces: These braces use a specialized clip system, eliminating the need for elastic ties, which can lead to fewer appointments and less friction. They are available in metal, ceramic, or clear brackets.
Clear Aligners (Invisalign® and Invisalign Teen®): A popular choice for their nearly invisible appearance and removability, allowing for easier eating and oral hygiene. They are a preferred provider for Invisalign.
Lingual Braces (Incognito™): These are 100% customized braces placed on the backside of the teeth, making them invisible when smiling. They are often chosen by athletes, models, actors, musicians, and adult professionals.
Early Orthodontic Treatment: Addressing issues in children to guide jaw growth and prevent more severe problems later.
The clinic prides itself on its all-digital office, incorporating advanced technology such as iTero® Digital Impression System for stress-free, "impression-less" dental records and smile simulations, as well as digital X-rays. They also routinely apply fixed bonded lingual retainers after active treatment to ensure long-lasting results.
Patients consistently praise Somerset Orthodontic Specialists for their exceptional results, the professionalism and friendliness of the staff, and Dr. Peterman's ability to clearly explain treatment plans and build trust, especially with younger patients. They offer complimentary clinical examinations for new patients to discuss treatment options and answer questions. The practice also works with patients to create affordable payment plans and accepts most major credit cards and insurance plans.
