Our commitment to you and your family’s overall health and well-being remains our highest priority in these unsettling times. We want you to know, we are still here and we support you.
For those in orthodontic treatment, we want to assure you that this doesn’t mean your treatment is on hold or delayed. In order to continue treatment progress, we’ve put together a guide for managing your treatment at home and to answer common questions you may have.

Invisalign
- Continue to wear and change your aligners as prescribed.

Braces

- Brush your teeth, floss and use mouthwash to keep your mouth clean.
