Our Orthodontic Services
Our Orthodontic Services- Metal and Clear Braces: Ideal for patients of all ages, offering reliable results with options to suit your lifestyle.

Why Invisalign®?
Opting for Invisalign clear aligners means embracing a convenient and comfortable treatment method. Known for their virtually invisible appearance, these aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth and gently move them into the desired position. The treatment process includes:
- Initial Consultation: Discuss your dental history and goals to determine if Invisalign is right for you.
- Custom Treatment Plan: Utilizing the iTero® digital scanning system, we create precise 3D images of your teeth to craft a step-by-step plan for your smile transformation.
- Progress Monitoring: Regular check-ups every six weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned.
Pediatric Orthodontics
Pediatric orthodontics is crucial for early detection and treatment of dental issues, providing significant long-term benefits. We recommend that children receive an orthodontic evaluation by age seven to address any potential jaw growth and bite issues. Early treatment can often prevent more invasive procedures later in life. Signs that your child might need orthodontic attention include:
- Early or unusual loss of baby teeth
- Difficulty chewing or biting
- Persistent thumb-sucking after age five
- Speech impediments
- Noticeable crowding or spacing of teeth
Adult Braces: Effective Orthodontic Treatments for Adults
Considering braces as an adult can be a daunting decision, but at Palm Orthodontics, we make the process smooth and effective. With the advancements in technology, adult braces have become more comfortable and less intrusive, allowing for discreet and efficient treatment. Whether you missed out on braces as a kid or need to correct incomplete past treatments, our state-of-the-art office near Longwood FL, specializes in adult orthodontic treatments tailored to your unique needs. Achieving a more aesthetically pleasing smile or a functional bite is now more accessible than ever with our expert team.
When you opt for braces for adults, lifestyle adjustments are essential but manageable. Wearing adult braces requires a commitment to dietary changes to protect your orthodontic appliances. Avoiding hard foods, sticky treats, and chewy items can prevent damage to your braces. It’s crucial to stick to softer foods like cooked vegetables, fish, and pasta to ensure your braces remain intact. Additionally, maintaining proper dental hygiene is paramount. At Palm Orthodontics, we provide comprehensive guidance and support to ensure your journey with adult braces leads to a beautiful, confident smile.
