INBRACE Invisible Braces

INBRACE Invisible Braces are placed behind the teeth. In fact, they are by far the most esthetic option for straightening teeth available today. In fact, they are the most popular orthodontic treatment solution for adults in our office. They’re much easier to keep clean than traditional braces, and more convenient than clear aligners. Dr. G has been a proud provider of InBrace since its inception in 2019.

Beyond lnvisalign

lnvisalign braces use clear aligners so they’re practically invisible. Also, they’re removable, so you can still enjoy all your favorite foods while in braces. At OrthoArts, we make our own clear aligners that result in shorter treatment times.

Surgical Orthodontics

Surgical orthodontics can be necessary to treat complex issues that involve the skull, face, jaw, and mouth, and requires extensive training. In addition to orthodontics residency, Dr. G has extensive experience in surgical orthodontics from his time at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Naval Medical Center San Diego.
