Welcome to OPDSF Ortho’s Patient Education Center

At OPDSF Ortho, we believe that a well-informed patient is empowered to make the best decisions for their orthodontic care. Whether you’re exploring treatment options for the first time or need information about your ongoing care, our Patient Education Center provides you with the knowledge you need to achieve your dream smile.

Why Orthodontic Care Matters

Orthodontic treatment goes beyond aesthetics—it’s essential for your overall oral health. Proper alignment can prevent long-term issues such as:

  • Tooth decay and gum disease
  • Difficulty in chewing and speaking
  • Jaw problems and headaches caused by misalignment

We offer a range of cutting-edge orthodontic solutions tailored to both children and adults, ensuring that every patient receives the highest level of care.

Our Treatments

braces

Braces

Braces are a tried-and-true option for aligning teeth. We offer traditional metal braces as well as more discreet options like ceramic braces to meet your needs.

invisalign

Invisalign®

For a nearly invisible way to straighten teeth, we offer Invisalign® clear aligners. These are perfect for teens and adults seeking a more flexible treatment option.

expanders

Palatal Expanders

Used primarily in growing children, palatal expanders help widen the upper jaw, making room for teeth alignment and correcting bite issues.

retainers

Retainers

Once treatment is complete, retainers help maintain your new smile by keeping your teeth in place over time.

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

Are braces only for kids?

How long does treatment take?

Treatment times vary depending on the complexity of your case, but most orthodontic treatments last between 12 and 24 months.

OPDSF Ortho transformed my smile in ways I never thought possible. The staff was kind, patient, and always willing to explain every step of my treatment. I am beyond thrilled with the results!
