“With tools like Invisalign® and other aligners, it’s how they are used — and who they are used by — that makes the difference,” Dr. Katie said.
While Invisalign® is practically a household name — widely popular among adults of all ages; adult care makes up about one-third of Larson Orthodontic’s patients — the local practice takes aligner treatment several steps forward by offering in-house aligners.
Through the practice’s iTero Element Scanners (digital scanning technology which can create 3D models of a patient’s teeth in just five minutes) and on-site 3D printers, in-depth personalization is incredibly accessible.
“We’re not letting a third party create our patients’ plans,” Dr. Katie noted. “With our expertise and technology, we can create custom aligner accessories and personalized plans to see specific movement and results.”
And even when people aren’t sure which aligner treatment — or any type of orthodontic care — is best for them, Larson Orthodontic provides a simple path toward finding answers: Complimentary consultations.
Every patient is provided a no-cost consult for the Larson Orthodontic team to complete a thorough evaluation of their teeth and jaws, review their medical/dental history, take pictures and digital scans of their teeth and jaws, and take X-rays. On day one, patients can often learn what the beginning steps of their personalized plan could look like.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends kids have an initial orthodontic exam around age seven, allowing the doctors to catch potential developing issues early. While most kids they see at that age don’t require intervention, it’s the first step in a healthy routine.
For adults, there is no limit to when care can be provided — Larson Orthodontics sees patients from ages seven to 70, and beyond.
Providing the trailblazing technology-backed care that earned them industry-leader status and the kind of personalized care that made them so many locals’ orthodontic practice of choice, you can expect the best from Larson Orthodontic Specialists.
