Traditional Braces

Classic braces for effective, long-lasting smile transformations

Trusted Orthodontic Solutions for Lasting Results

For generations, braces have been a reliable way to straighten teeth and enhance smiles, and today’s designs are more comfortable and efficient than ever. Using the latest materials and techniques, our modern metal braces provide exceptional results.

Braces are suitable for children, teens, and adults alike, offering a time-tested path to the confident, healthy smile you’ve always dreamed of, with results that can last a lifetime.

Why Choose Traditional Braces?

While clear aligners & Invisalign gain attention, metal braces are still a trusted choice for addressing a broad spectrum of dental alignment needs.

Highly Effective
Exceptionally effective at correcting even the most challenging bite and alignment issues.
Durable & Reliable
Long-lasting and dependable, delivering predictable results trusted for generations.
Fun & Customizable
Personalized with vibrant elastic colors, letting kids and teens show off their style.
Budget-Friendly
A budget-conscious option for families seeking effective orthodontic care.

How Traditional Braces Work

Braces work through a series of small brackets, connected by wires and tiny elastics, that slowly guide teeth into better alignment. During routine appointments, Dr. Marston fine-tunes the system to keep your smile moving comfortably and consistently toward its final result.

Modern Advances in Braces Technology

At Marston Orthodontics, we use advanced technology and modern orthodontic materials to ensure braces are:

Smoother and more comfortable than in the past
More discreet with low-profile brackets
More efficient, reducing treatment time in many cases
Enhanced with digital treatment planning for precision

Who Are Braces Right For?

Traditional braces are a great solution for patients who need help correcting a variety of orthodontic concerns. During your complimentary consultation, Dr. Marston will assess your teeth and bite, then explain whether braces or another option will deliver the best results for your smile.

Conditions We Treat:

Crooked or crowded teeth
Overbites, underbites, or crossbites
Gaps or spacing issues
More complex orthodontic cases that aligners alone may not address

What our patients say

“Amazing staff and care, always taking the best care. Dr Marston is always so caring and encouraging, as well as super supportive to help rework and restrategize the way that he assists your needs.”

John K

“Dr. Marston is absolutely professional, and all the staff are very kind. My case was not easy I had to pause and redo it because of my TMJ but what I appreciate most about Dr. Marston is his patience and dedication throughout the process. My daughter also loves visiting the clinic because of the welcoming, kid-friendly environment.”

MCogan

“Just finished my Invisalign treatment. Awesome experience from beginning to end. I felt very comfortable with every step of the process from the first consultation to receiving my retainers. Every question no matter how dumb it sounded was answered professionally. They even worked with me when I moved overseas to continue my treatment. Thanks a ton Dr. Marston and team! I appreciate all of you.”

Mark S

“The entire staff is not only incredibly friendly but also consistently professional. They always go above and beyond to accommodate our scheduling needs, which we deeply appreciate. Dr. Marston is both knowledgeable and compassionate. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring that both the patient and their family fully understand the treatment plan and what to expect. We couldn’t ask for a better orthodontic experience—and we highly recommend Marston Orthodontics to anyone in need of care!”
