Paired with Dr. Johnson’s expert guidance, these orthodontic options make your smile journey faster, more comfortable, and more affordable.
Which Treatment Is Right for You?
During your free consultation, Dr. Johnson will assess your teeth, gums, and jaw to figure out whether your orthodontic issues are minor, moderate, or severe.
After this exam, you’ll tell Dr. Johnson your smile goals and your budget. You’ll hear his honest advice about which treatments will help best correct your oral issues and fit your bottom line.
Invisalign® & Invisalign for Teens
Unlike traditional braces, this kind of orthodontic treatment doesn’t rely on a system of metal or ceramic brackets and wires.
The Invisalign system is made up of a series of custom clear trays called aligners that are removable and nearly invisible.
For Adults For TeensClear Braces
Ceramic braces use the same components as traditional braces, but instead of metal, the brackets on the front side of the teeth are made of see-through ceramic material.

Traditional metal braces are the most widely used type of fixed orthodontic appliance. Though past versions have been bulky, awkward, or even painful, today's metal braces are smaller, lighter, and more comfortable to wear than ever before.

A good night's sleep is an essential part of great days, no matter your age. If you're not getting the sleep you need due to sleep apnea or sleep disturbances, it can cause problems at work or school.
Some children are even misdiagnosed with ADHD when they're simply not getting enough sleep because of sleep apnea. Using our iCat 3D scanner, we can identify airway obstructions and oral issues that are affecting your sleep.
During your free consultation, Dr. Johnson will ask questions about any problems he spots or you mention. He'll determine if you should be referred to a sleep specialist.
Braces Vs. Invisalign
It’s important to understand the difference between fixed and removable appliances. Fixed appliances, like braces, are attached to your teeth and aren’t taken off until you complete your treatment.
Removable appliances, like Invisalign’s aligner system, are worn about 20-22 hours a day but can be taken off easily.
Aside from the obvious differences, Invisalign aligners are best at treating mild to moderate orthodontic problems. Fixed appliances are generally needed for more serious and comprehensive treatment.
Finding Your Right Fit
By pairing state-of-the-art technology with our thorough understanding of the movement and growth of the teeth and jaws, Dr. Johnson can successfully treat many dental issues, like:
- Crowded teeth
