Your Trusted Orthodontist in the Summerlin, NV, Area
Dr. Victoria Chen and her team at Significance Orthodontics are proud to serve the Summerlin, Nevada, area. We offer several different orthodontic treatments, including:
Braces
We use braces to give you a Superstar Smile in 18 to 24 months. Metal braces have colored rubber bands to show off your personality. Clear ceramic braces give you a more discreet appearance. Both types of braces limit your diet somewhat, but the ceramic braces are a little more restrictive—you won’t be able to indulge in coffee, soda, black tea, and curried foods, as they can stain the brackets. Clear braces are also not advised for smokers.
Invisalign® & Invisalign Teen
Invisalign and Invisalign Teen use a series of clear, removable aligners, similar to retainers that are used after braces are taken off. However, they’re completely clear, providing more discretion. You can take them out to eat and drink whatever you’d like, and to brush and floss your teeth. You’ll wear each aligner for about two weeks, then switch to a new one—you may go through as few as 10 or as many as 30 aligners, depending on the plan Dr. Chen develops with you.
Accelerated Orthodontics
With new technology, we can reduce the amount of time you need to wear braces by up to 64%. Micro-osteoperforation™, or MOP, is used in the office and increases the rate of bone remodeling, letting your teeth move more quickly.
Wilckodontics, also known as Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics, is performed with the patient under sedation and stimulates the bone, making both the bone and the roots of the teeth stronger. It can reduce your timeline with braces by 50%.
VPro+™ is the only FDA-cleared high-frequency vibration device that moves your teeth faster by softening the jawbone just enough to move your teeth faster, then rebuilds calcium to strengthen the bone and your teeth. It may cut your time with braces by 40% or more.
