Oro Valley & Marana Orthodontics
Straighten Your Smile
Orthodontic problems can impact kids, teens, and adults — in fact, it's rare that anyone's born with perfect teeth. Malocclusion, or a "bad bite", can cause problems with chewing, oral hygiene, speaking — not to mention looks.
A bad bite can be genetic or can be caused by thumb sucking, dental disease, poor dental hygiene, accidents, birth defects, or other medical conditions.
Dr. Freytag pairs cutting-edge tech with the skill of moving teeth. This helps Freytag Orthodontics successfully treat many dental issues, like:
- Gaps between your teeth
- Crowded teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Protruding teeth
- Impacted teeth
Metal Braces & Other Options
Most patients we treat at Freytag Orthodontics choose traditional metal braces to straighten their teeth.
Metal braces are the most common type of orthodontic treatment in Tucson, but you have other options, too.
After your first free consultation exam, Dr. Freytag will talk to you about which treatment would be right for you based on your unique needs and smile goals.
Fixed Appliances Vs. Removable Appliances
At Freytag Orthodontics, we believe you should be fully educated when it comes to your treatment. The first step to correcting an orthodontic problem is learning about it.
It's helpful for patients around Marana and Oro Valley to understand the difference between fixed and removable appliances. Dr. Freytag attaches fixed appliances, like braces, to your teeth and won't take them off until you complete your treatment at Freytag Orthodontics.
When Dr. Freytag prescribes a removable appliance like Invisalign's aligner system, you'll wear it most of the day, but you can take the trays out of your mouth.
Besides the obvious differences, Freytag Orthodontics uses Invisalign aligners to treat mild to moderate orthodontic problems. Dr. Freytag generally uses fixed appliances for comprehensive and serious treatment.
