Whether you're considering Invisalign®, braces, or early orthodontic treatment, we provide customized solutions designed to create healthy, confident smiles for children, teens, and adults.
Invisalign® clear aligners offer a modern, nearly invisible way to straighten teeth. Made using advanced 3D imaging, the aligners are removable — giving you more freedom and comfort for eating and oral hygiene — while gradually shifting your teeth into place. This combination of effectiveness, comfort, and discreet design has made Invisalign® an increasingly popular choice for both teens and adults.
Invisalign® uses a series of custom clear aligners, made from a scan of your mouth, to gradually shift teeth into place. Each tray is worn for about two weeks before moving to the next, with the total number depending on your case.For best results, wear aligners at least 20 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Regular office visits keep treatment on track, and aligners are easy to clean with a toothbrush or liquid soap — we also recommend EverSmile WhiteFoam for extra freshness and whitening.

Braces are a reliable and effective way to straighten teeth, improve bite alignment, and correct more complex orthodontic concerns. Treatment works by gently guiding the teeth into healthier positions over time using brackets and wires. At Miami Smiles Orthodontics, we offer both traditional metal braces and clear ceramic braces, giving patients options that fit their needs, lifestyle, and smile goals.
Braces work by applying gentle, steady pressure on your teeth to slowly guide them into better positions.Small attachments are placed on your teeth and connected by a wire, which is shaped to match where your teeth need to go. As your teeth respond to that pressure, they gradually shift over time — and with regular check-ins, your orthodontist keeps everything on track until you reach your ideal smile.The process is gradual by design — slow,steady movement is what keeps it safe, comfortable, and effective for lasting results.

Early orthodontic treatment, also called Phase 1 treatment, is recommended for children around ages 7-10, while their jaw is still growing. An early evaluation — ideally by age 7 — allows us to catch issues like crowding, cross bites, or jaw discrepancies while there's still time to guide growth in the right direction. Not every child needs Phase 1 treatment, but early screening helps us know for sure.
Starting treatment early can create room for permanent teeth to come in properly, correct harmful habits like thumb-sucking, and guide jaw growth while it's still happening. This often means simpler, shorter treatment later on. If a second phase is needed, it typically follows once all permanent teeth have erupted, completing the smile with full braces or Invisalign®.
Retainers are custom-made appliances worn after braces or Invisalign® to hold your teeth in their new, corrected positions. Teeth naturally want to shift back over time, so retainers are an essential final step to lock in your results. They can be removable or fixed, and your orthodontist will recommend the best option based on your treatment and needs.
Retainers protect the investment you made in your smile by keeping teeth from drifting out of place. Consistent wear — especially in the months right after treatment — helps make your results last a lifetime. They're simple to care for, easy to wear, and a small daily habit that keeps your smile straight for years to come.
