Treatment Options | Dr. Andrew F. Thompson

Dr. Thompson and his staff believe that all patients are different and have different treatment requirements; therefore, several treatment options are available at our office. These include the following:
Conventional Orthodontics: For patients who do not wish to (or do not have the option to) choose any other form of treatment, the “silver” brackets and wires are still a popular option.

Invisible Orthodontics: This involves wearing a series of clear plastic “aligners” over the teeth. These aligners are comfortable and removable and best of all, invisible. Roughly 85% of cases are suitable for Invisalign. These offer the same fee as conventional orthodontics, and have the same result. Dr. Thompson is Invisalign ® certified and for more information on this type of treatment, you can visit Invsialign’s website at www.invisalign.com.
Lingual Orthodontics: This option involves placing brackets and wires on the “inside” of the teeth so that they are not visible when the patient smiles.

Is Invisalign for me?
