Whether you are considering braces for a teenager or clear aligners for yourself, we treat patients of all ages under one roof.
Our Orthodontic Services
Metal Braces
Metal braces are the most familiar option and still one of the most effective. Today's brackets are smaller and more comfortable than the ones most parents remember, and they handle everything from simple crowding to complex bite corrections. For many kids and teens, metal braces are the most efficient way to a straight, healthy smile.
Clear Braces
Clear braces work the same way metal braces do, but the ceramic brackets blend in with your teeth so they are far less noticeable. They are a popular middle ground for teens and adults who want the reliability of braces without the look. Read more about clear braces and who they suit best.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a removable, nearly invisible option that shifts your teeth with a series of custom trays. You take them out to eat and brush, which makes them easy to live with, and they work well for many mild to moderate cases. See how clear aligners compare to braces for your situation.
Orthodontics for All Ages
Orthodontic treatment provides numerous benefits for patients of all ages:
Children: Early intervention can guide jaw growth and create space for incoming teeth, preventing more serious problems later.
Teens: Braces and clear aligners can correct alignment issues and boost confidence during these formative years.
Adults: Itโs never too late to achieve a beautiful smile. Adult orthodontics can improve oral health and enhance your appearance.

Erie Orthodontics FAQs
What orthodontic treatments do you offer in Erie?
We offer metal braces, clear braces, and clear aligners. Each one straightens teeth and corrects the bite, and the right choice comes down to your case, your age, and how visible you want treatment to be.
When should my child first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists suggests a first checkup around age 7. Most children are not ready for braces that young, but an early look lets us catch anything that is easier to guide while the jaw is still growing.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Most treatment runs 18 to 24 months. Simpler cases can finish sooner and more complex ones take longer, and we give you a clear timeline at your consultation.
Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
For many mild to moderate cases, yes. Braces still have an edge on complex bite problems, so we walk you through which option fits before you commit.
Is it too late to straighten my teeth as an adult?
It is never too late. A good share of our patients are adults, and treatment improves both the look of your smile and your long term oral health at any age.
