For orthodontics office procedures that can improve the appearance and function of your smile, call (520) 368-3351 and schedule an appointment with Tucson, AZ dental office. At Simply Smiles Dentistry, we offer a variety of orthodontics procedures that can be used to give you a winning smile. We value the uniqueness of each of our patients, and that is why we offer multiple ways to achieve the goal of straighter and better-looking teeth. Here are a few of the treatments we offer in our 85710 dentist office:

  • Clear Braces. Also known as cosmetic braces, clear braces operate under the same basic principles as traditional braces. A bracket is secured to each of your teeth with a wire threaded through them. The wires are adjusted regularly in order to move teeth closer to their final destination. Pressure is used to move the teeth, and the process is extremely effective. The difference is that with clear braces, the brackets are made of tooth-colored ceramic and the wires are also tooth-colored. This means that clear braces blend into your teeth instead of standing out. The remaining process and treatment time is the same, but our Tucson patients appreciate not having to look like they have a mouth full of metal.
  • 6 Month Smiles®. Traditional cosmetic braces are not for everyone. Many of our Arizona patients need a faster solution, and this is where 6 Month Smiles® comes in. Using modern dental technology, this system of straightening teeth is so effective that it can cut the overall treatment time in half. Teeth are moved much more quickly using the 6 Month Smiles® program, but the process is still gentle enough to not cause you too much discomfort or any damage to your teeth. Our Tucson patients are pleasantly surprised by how convenient the process is and how comfortable they feel the majority of the time. If you are considering clear braces or traditional ceramic cosmetic braces, you should see a 6 Month Smiles® dentist first in order to discuss your options. You could achieve the same results, only faster.

Orthodontics for Your Health

Beyond providing patients with braces to straighten teeth and align the bite, we also provide non-invasive solutions for addressing other health concerns. For example, we create night guards for patients who are grinding their teeth at night and experiencing symptoms of TMJ. By preventing teeth from touching, we stop grinding and clenching while also preventing the damage that can be caused by them. Night guards are an excellent way to treat TMJ and prevent damage without the need for an invasive surgery.
