At TruSmile Now — Chandler, we believe every smile deserves to shine with confidence. Whether you want to align crooked teeth, close unwanted gaps, or correct jaw alignment issues, our customized orthodontic treatments are designed to help you achieve lasting results.
Braces are orthodontic appliances that use a series of small brackets and flexible wires to gently guide your teeth into proper alignment. At TruSmile Now — Chandler, we offer both traditional metal braces and clear ceramic braces, giving you the freedom to choose the look and comfort level that best fits your lifestyle.
Metal braces remain a reliable, efficient option for achieving precise results, while ceramic braces feature tooth-colored materials that blend more naturally with your smile—perfect for a subtle, low-profile appearance.
Whichever option you choose, our Chandler dental team designs a customized plan to ensure your treatment is comfortable, effective, and tailored to your unique goals.
We provide a range of modern orthodontic options designed to fit your comfort, lifestyle, and smile goals. Whether you prefer traditional braces or a more discreet alternative, we’ll guide you toward the best choice for your needs.
A time-tested favorite, metal braces use durable stainless-steel brackets and flexible wires to align your teeth efficiently. They’re highly reliable, cost-effective, and perfect for achieving precise, long-term results.
For those who prefer a subtler look, clear braces feature tooth-colored or transparent brackets that blend naturally with your enamel. They offer the same effectiveness as metal braces but with a more discreet, aesthetic appearance—ideal for teens and adults alike.
If you’re looking for a wire-free option, Invisalign® clear aligners offer a comfortable, removable solution. These nearly invisible trays gently guide your teeth into place while letting you eat, brush, and smile freely—making them one of the most convenient choices for orthodontic treatment today.
You might be a great candidate for braces if you have crowded teeth, gaps, or bite issues such as an overbite, underbite, or crossbite. Braces help align your teeth properly, improving both your smile and your oral health.
We begin with photos, X-rays, and a digital scan to map your tooth movement and outline your personalized treatment plan.
Brackets are carefully placed, and a light wire is attached to start guiding your teeth into position. You’ll receive easy tips for cleaning and managing initial tenderness.
Every 4–8 weeks, we’ll make small changes to wires or elastics to keep your smile progressing comfortably and efficiently.
Once your teeth are beautifully aligned, we’ll remove your braces and fit custom retainers to preserve your new smile for the long term.
Braces are orthodontic appliances designed to gently move your teeth into better alignment over time. Using brackets, wires, and elastics, braces apply consistent pressure that gradually shifts teeth into their ideal positions. This not only improves the appearance of your smile but also helps correct bite issues and enhance oral health.
If you have crowded, crooked, or spaced-out teeth—or issues like an overbite, underbite, or crossbite—you’re likely a good fit for braces. After a thorough exam and imaging, your orthodontist will create a personalized treatment plan. Even adults can achieve excellent results with modern options like clear or ceramic braces.
Each option has unique benefits. Metal braces are the most durable and ideal for complex cases. Ceramic braces blend more naturally with your teeth for a discreet look. Clear aligners (like Invisalign®) are removable and nearly invisible, offering flexibility for eating and cleaning. Your orthodontist will help determine which fits your goals, lifestyle, and budget.
Treatment time varies based on your dental needs but typically lasts between 12 and 24 months. Some cases may finish sooner, while more complex corrections take longer. Regular adjustment visits ensure your teeth move efficiently and comfortably throughout the process.
Braces require small adjustments to your routine. You’ll want to avoid sticky or hard foods that can damage brackets and spend a bit more time on oral hygiene. Otherwise, you can live life as usual—work, socialize, and smile confidently while your teeth transform.
Some mild discomfort is normal after adjustments or when braces are first placed. The feeling usually fades within a few days as your mouth adjusts. Over-the-counter pain relievers or orthodontic wax can ease any irritation from wires or brackets.
Good hygiene is key! Brush after meals, use fluoride toothpaste, and clean carefully around brackets with a floss threader or water flosser. Regular dental checkups help keep teeth and gums healthy throughout your orthodontic journey.
Yes! You can continue sports and music as usual. For contact sports, wearing a mouthguard protects your braces and teeth. Musicians may need a short adjustment period, but most adapt quickly and comfortably.
Coverage depends on your plan. Some dental insurance policies include orthodontic benefits, while others don’t. If coverage is limited, most practices—like TruSmile Now in Chandler—offer flexible payment plans to make treatment affordable.
After your teeth are perfectly aligned, we’ll remove the brackets and fit you with a custom retainer to maintain your new smile. Wearing it as directed prevents your teeth from shifting and keeps your results lasting for years to come.
