Smartwire
Your personalized Smartwire sits behind your teeth so only you and your orthodontist know it’s there. Go ahead – sip that coffee, kiss that cutie, lean in closer. With InBrace, you can eat, drink, brush, floss and carry on as usual while in treatment.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a clear system of “braces” that consist of strong plastic trays that are fabricated especially for you. Invisalign is nearly invisible. No one will know that you are straightening your smile! Dr. Vonny is a Platinum Provider of Invisalign.

Metal Braces
They are very strong and can withstand most types of treatment. Unlike the metal braces of the past, today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable and more attractive.
Clear Braces
Ceramic or clear braces are made of composite material. They are more often chosen by adult patients because they “blend in” with your teeth. Common drawbacks with the clear braces have to do with the ligatures (tiny rubber bands) that hold the archwire in place. Those tend to stain between visits to your orthodontist.
