At Embrace Orthodontics in Westport and Stamford, CT, we offer a full range of orthodontic treatments for children, teens, and adults. Our services include:

Damon Braces – Damon braces are an innovative orthodontic system with lower-profile brackets for greater comfort.  The  passive self-ligating design means the archwire is fixed directly to the brackets and adjusts itself as required during the care, rather than using elastic or steel ties that need frequent in-person adjustments. The Damon system is a revolutionary technology that aims to provide a specific smile line for optimal facial esthetics.

Invisalign or Spark Clear Aligners – Clear aligners are discreet, comfortable, and convenient, making them a popular choice for many of our adult and teen patients. Because your aligners are made with thin, clear plastic, no one will even notice you’re wearing them!

Damon Clear Braces – Clear braces combine the advantages of conventional metal braces with the inconspicuous appearance of Invisalign. The Damon brackets are made of a ceramic material that blends in with your teeth for a seamless look.

InBrace Lingual Braces – InBrace lingual braces are a discreet orthodontic treatment option that attaches brackets to the backs of the teeth, rather than the front, in order to make them less noticeable. InBrace straightens teeth from the inside out, and has a smaller profile than other lingual braces, guaranteeing improved patient comfort.

Retainers – Once you’re done with braces or Invisalign, you’ll need to maintain your results. We offer a number of different retainer types to fit your orthodontic needs, preferences, and lifestyle.

Palatal Expander Appliance – “PEAs”, or palatal expander appliances, are used to relieve crowding by making more space in the upper jaw. Early orthodontic treatment often includes the use of PEAs to expand the upper jaw bones before a child stops growing.

Airway Orthodontics - At our office we think it is critical to examine a patient's airway to make a proper orthodontic diagnosis. A constricted airway can severely impact the growth and development of a child in many ways.  If a constricted airway is caught early in life orthodontics can prevent a lifetime of sleep apnea issues and improve overall health.

Surgical Orthodontics – If you have a jaw misalignment that requires surgical treatment, our orthodontists can collaborate with your oral surgeon in devising a treatment plan. A typical surgical orthodontics treatment involves braces to move the teeth prior to surgery to ensure that they will be in proper alignment once the surgery is complete. Then, additional time in braces is usually needed to make refinements to the teeth’s positions.

V Pro Plus – With just 5 minutes of use a day, V Pro Plus can accelerate your orthodontic treatment using unique SoftPulse Technology. You can choose to pair V Pro Plus with braces or Invisalign for faster results.

Sleep Apnea – Sleep apnea can often be treated at a young age by widening the upper airway in order to keep the airway open during sleep. We provide oral appliance therapy to minimize obstruction so you can get a good night’s sleep.

TMJ Disorders – It can be difficult to live your life to the fullest if you suffer from chronic headaches and pain caused by TMJ disorder. We treat TMD on an individual basis, creating a care plan that is customized to your particular needs.
