Braces & Clear Aligners in Raleigh & Fuquay-Virana
Your Smile Starts Here
Orthodontic care is a constantly evolving practice, and Dr. Hamilton and the team work hard to stay at the cutting edge of treatment.
Patients in Raleigh, Fuquay-Varina, and surrounding areas can rest easy knowing that you’re getting the best treatment options in the industry at our practice.
Straighten Your Smile
Orthodontic problems can impact kids, teens and adults — in fact, it’s rare that anyone’s born with perfect teeth. Malocclusion, or a “bad bite”, can cause problems with chewing, oral hygiene, speaking — not to mention looks.
A bad bite can be genetic or can be caused by thumb sucking, dental disease, poor dental hygiene, accidents, birth defects or other medical conditions.
Dr. Hamilton pairs cutting-edge tech with the skill of moving teeth. This helps Hamilton Orthodontics successfully treat many dental issues, like:
- Gaps between your teeth
- Crowded teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Protruding teeth
- Impacted teeth
Metal Braces & Other Options
Most patients we treat at Hamilton Orthodontics will choose metal braces or clear aligners to straighten their teeth.
Metal braces and clear aligners are the most common type of orthodontic treatment in Raleigh and Fuquay Varina, but you have other options, too.
After your first free consultation exam, Dr. Hamilton will talk to you about which treatment would be right for you based on your unique needs and smile goals.
Fixed Appliances vs. Removable Appliances
At Hamilton Orthodontics, we believe you should be fully educated when it comes to your treatment. The first step to correcting an orthodontic problem is learning about it.
It’s helpful for patients around Raleigh and Fuquay-Varina, to understand the difference between fixed and removable appliances. Dr. Hamilton attaches fixed appliances, like braces, to your teeth and won’t take them off until you complete your treatment at Hamilton Orthodontics.
When Dr. Hamilton prescribes a removable appliance like our clear aligner system, you’ll wear it most of the day but you can take the trays out of your mouth.
Besides the obvious differences, Hamilton Orthodontics uses clear aligners to treat mild to moderate orthodontic problems. Dr. Hamilton generally uses fixed appliances for comprehensive and serious treatment.
