Where Everyone Knows Your Smile!
Braces For Kids
Thousands of kids around the United States need braces. Braces are an effective orthodontic treatment for crowded or crooked teeth; they also correct bites or jaw misalignment. Knowing when your child needs braces isn’t always easily determined. Thankfully, the team at Steele Creek Orthodontics can help.

Braces For Adults
Are you nervous about wearing braces as an adult? You may feel a little self-conscious about having metal or colored brackets on your teeth and how the mechanism affects your smile. However, roughly 20% of orthodontic patients are adults, and they can tell you from experience that the treatment time can lead to a better bite and prevent further dental concerns.
