Why Choose Orthodontics in Stockton?

Orthodontics in Stockton isn’t just about straight teeth; it’s about creating a smile that you can feel good about every day. We pride ourselves on making orthodontic treatment both accessible and enjoyable for our Stockton community.

Dr. Peterson and her team are committed to ensuring you leave every appointment feeling confident and excited about your progress.

Orthodontics can do more than enhance your smile—it can boost your confidence and improve oral health by correcting issues like misaligned bites, overcrowded teeth, and jaw pain. Our comprehensive orthodontic treatments cater to all ages because it’s never too early (or too late!) to achieve the smile you truly deserve.

Braces for a Tried-and-True Transformation

Braces have been helping people achieve beautifully aligned smiles for decades. We use advanced techniques and materials to make braces more comfortable and effective than ever. Traditional braces consist of metal brackets and wires that gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. They’re reliable, efficient, and perfect for tackling a wide range of orthodontic issues.

If you’re worried about the aesthetics of braces, don’t fret—we also offer ceramic braces, which use tooth-colored brackets that blend seamlessly with your smile. While braces may bring to mind images of clunky, uncomfortable appliances, modern braces are lightweight, sleeker, and more subtle than their predecessors. You’ll be rocking your brackets with confidence in no time!

Braces are particularly effective for correcting complex orthodontic issues like severe misalignment or bite problems. Whether you’re an adult finally ready to transform your smile or a teen preparing for their orthodontic journey, braces provide a tried-and-true method for long-term results. Plus, we’re here every step of the way to ensure adjustments are smooth and to celebrate your progress!

Clear Aligners for a Discreet Orthodontic Solution

Looking for a less noticeable alternative to braces? Clear aligners might be the perfect choice for you! Our custom-designed aligners are virtually invisible, making them ideal for professionals, teens, or anyone who prefers a discreet orthodontic option. These removable trays gently and effectively guide your teeth into alignment without the need for wires or brackets.

One of the most significant advantages of clear aligners is their convenience. Since they’re removable, you can continue to enjoy your favorite foods and maintain your regular oral hygiene routine without compromise. Whether you’re eating popcorn at movie night or brushing before bed, clear aligners simplify the process while delivering outstanding results.

Clear aligners are an excellent option for treating mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, such as crooked teeth, gaps, and overbites. At Donna Peterson DDS in Stockton, we tailor every aligner plan to meet your individual needs, ensuring your treatment is as effective and efficient as possible. Best of all, you can witness your smile’s transformation unfold little by little with each aligner tray.
