Little Smiles, Big Difference.

Your child’s smile is one of the most precious sights to see every day. It is our job to make sure their smiles shine bright and stay healthy as they grow. Preventative care is one way to ensure that we stay on top of any issues, should they arise, as their adult teeth come in and their jaws reach their permanent alignments.  It is up to all of us to stay on top of our child’s oral care. With state-of-the-art technology advancing each and every day, our doctors and staff are here to assist with correcting any issues as quickly as we can.

Look for these signs that your child might benefit from an early orthodontic treatment:

• Early or late loss of baby teeth
• Crowded, misplaced, or blocked teeth
• Teeth that come together abnormally or don’t come together at all
• Jaws and teeth that seem out of proportion to the rest of the face
• Difficulty chewing or biting food
• Consistent breathing through the mouth instead of the nose
• Frequent sucking of finger or thumb
• Jaws that pop or make similar sounds when opening and closing

Camas Orthodontics offers several advanced treatment options, such as:

• Clear braces
• Invisible braces (Invisalign®)
• Traditional metal braces with an array of available colors

Metal braces have been the customary choice for most orthodontic patients to date. Metal braces are used to treat common issues such as crooked teeth, misaligned bites, or jaws. 

Metal braces have come a long way since their inception. Comfort and customization have made wearing metal braces much more appealing. Metal braces are available in various colors and interchangeable colorful ligatures making the orthodontic journey much more fun. Metal braces, or metal brackets, make the treatment process faster, not to mention the cost of metal braces is less expensive, making treatment much more affordable.

Camas Orthodontics is a leader in the nation for Invisalign ranking in the top 1% of all providers in the world. We take pride in holding the Invisalign Platinum Provider Status assuring you that our care will get you positive results. Many people decide against getting braces simply because of the obvious appearance of metal hardware. Invisalign is well known for its customizable ability to straighten teeth without wires and brackets. This system of clear removable aligners is custom-designed based on your teeth. The visibility of Invisalign is hard to detect making it virtually difficult for anyone to know that you are straightening your teeth. 

Invisalign is an automated process divided into a series of steps, and each step is printed by a 3-D printer, making the process proven effective. These clear plastic aligners are created using industry-leading technology based on your customized treatment plan. More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign. Teeth straightening for Teens has also come a long way, with Invisalign adding comfort and durability to the experience. Fitting in with extracurricular activities is now made simple knowing that your braces will no longer get in the way.

SureSmile customized prescription archwires are used by orthodontists as an option for orthodontic treatment. Using advanced technology, this revolutionary process is designed to direct teeth in a precise direction which minimizes the amount of time patients spend in braces. 

Although in the past braces’ wiring was traditionally done by hand, SureSmile is 3-D scanned and sculpted by robots which ensure the precise matching of the patient’s teeth, leaving less room for error. This also minimizes the number of appointments due to the condensed time patients are in braces!
