WHAT ARE LIGHTFORCE BRACES?
LightForce Braces are the newest advancement in orthodontic technology and we are proud to offer this to our patients. In fact, Dr. Dougherty was one of the first orthodontist to offer this new technology in our area.
These braces are 3D-printed and transparent and can be perfectly molded to the patient’s tooth size and shape. Similar to clear aligners, Dr. Dougherty first prescribes teeth movements, and then the brackets are printed exactly to her prescription.
The end result is more rapid treatment with fewer orthodontic appointments!
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LIGHTFORCE BRACES?
Made with a polycrystalline material rather than metal and utilize highly-contoured edges and smooth tie-wings for maximum patient comfort.
Brackets are tooth-colored, allowing you to transform your smile discreetly.
Reduces treatment time by an average of 37%.
Braces are customized to your teeth, reducing overall trips to the orthodontist for adjustments.
