Orthodontics for All Ages in Fresno & Clovis

Orthodontists use fixed and removable dental devices to correct dental and facial irregularities, including misalignments of the teeth and jaws. After completing dental school, orthodontists undergo several additional years of training to learn how to guide teeth into their proper positions and how to manage and guide jaw development. We offer a variety of orthodontic services to kids, teens, and adults, including braces, Invisalign, palatal expanders, assisted eruption of impacted teeth, and more.

As a patient at Nalchajian Orthodontics, you can expect to be treated like a member of our family. We pride ourselves on being a place where patients of all ages can feel welcome and receive the individualized care needed to ensure a smooth, positive experience. Orthodontics can benefit all ages. In fact, a child should see an orthodontist for the first time around age seven for an evaluation.

Braces are an effective and efficient tool for correcting bite problems or issues with your teeth, such as overcrowding, crooked teeth, or gaps between teeth. Your orthodontist will bond brackets and wires to your teeth, then incrementally tighten the wires to apply a gradual force to your teeth. Over time, your teeth will be guided into their proper positions in the dental arch. Treatment time will vary depending on your specific orthodontic issues and how well you care for your appliances throughout treatment.

Dr. Greg, Dr. Nicole, and Dr. Victoria offer a range of braces styles, including traditional metal braces and ceramic braces with tooth-colored brackets. During your first visit, we will discuss treatment options and determine the right type of braces for your needs and budget. Our team will also walk you through how to properly clean and care for your braces to keep your treatment on track. Contact us to learn more about braces in Fresno and Clovis.

Invisalign clear aligners straighten teeth and correct bite problems without the look and feel of braces. The aligners are custom-fitted to your teeth and virtually invisible; most people aren’t able to tell you’re wearing them! From straightening teeth to correcting bite problems, Invisalign can be a great treatment option for teens and adults who wish to improve their smile without wearing braces. 

A huge benefit of Invisalign is that the clear aligners are removable. Simply take them out when eating, playing sports, or brushing your teeth, and wear them at all other times. You are in total control of your treatment and will achieve faster results the more consistently you wear your aligners. Invisalign aligners are also easy to keep clean; just brush them whenever you brush your teeth! To see if Invisalign clear aligners are right for you or your child, we invite you to contact Nalchajian Orthodontics to learn more about Invisalign in Fresno and Clovis.
