Braces in Maine.
Time-tested treatment using brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into ideal alignment.
The treatment, plainly explained.
Traditional braces use small brackets bonded to each tooth and a thin archwire that gently guides teeth into position over time.
Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than they were a generation ago — and they work for nearly any case.
Is this the right fit?
Braces work for kids, teens, and adults. They’re especially well suited to complex cases involving rotations, deep bites, or significant crowding.
Why patients choose braces.
What to expect, step by step.
- Consultation
We review your bite, take records, and walk through your options.
- Bonding
Brackets are bonded to your teeth and the first archwire is placed.
- Adjustments
You’ll come in roughly every 6–8 weeks for adjustments and progress checks.
- Removal & retention
Once your bite is perfect, braces come off and you transition to retainers.
Care that fits your budget.
Interest-free monthly plans, most insurance accepted, and clear pricing — so you can focus on your smile, not the paperwork.
Questions, answered.
- How long does treatment take?
- Most cases finish in 12–24 months, depending on complexity. We give you a personalized estimate at your consultation.
- Do braces hurt?
- You may feel mild soreness for a few days after each adjustment. Most patients describe it as pressure rather than pain.
- Can I still play sports or instruments?
- Yes. We provide a mouthguard for contact sports, and most musicians adapt within a couple of weeks.
