Orthodontic Treatments
Great Smiles Begin at Spillers Orthodontics
If you or your child is in need of quality orthodontic treatment in Macon or Warner Robins, GA, you’ve come to the right place!
We are proud to offer a variety of orthodontic treatments for children, teens and adults. Dr. Spillers and Dr. Gordon are highly-experienced in treating patients of all ages, conditions, lifestyles and goals. Whether you’re seeking traditional braces or clear aligners, or you require an orthodontic appliance, snoring treatment or TMJ treatment, we have what you need to help you experience your greatest quality of life.
Early Orthodontic Treatment
The AAO recommends children be brought in for their free consultation around age 7. Early orthodontic treatment is important for preventing problematic orthodontic and bone abnormalities from progressing before the permanent teeth fully erupt.
Adult Orthodontics and Braces
There’s no age limit for orthodontics! It’s never too late to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. You have options in Invisalign®, SO Clear Aligners, and a variety of braces to suit your preferences.
Teen Orthodontics
Teen orthodontic treatment works alongside the natural development of the teeth and jaw bones. It’s optimal to begin orthodontic treatment with Invisalign Teen or a form of braces during the early teenage years.
Types of Braces
We have a form of braces for every lifestyle! Choose from clear braces or metal braces. We offer SmartClip™ self-ligating braces and traditional braces.
Accelerated Treatment
If you’re seeking the fast track to a beautiful smile, we have advanced orthodontic techniques to help speed up the treatment process. By use of Propel® or AcceleDent® devices, we can accelerate tooth movement.
iTero Digital System
We use the advanced iTero Digital Impression system to take fast, accurate, goop-free impressions of your teeth and bite. This state-of-the-art technology enables us to show you your results before you even begin treatment!
Retainers
The retention phase is critical in orthodontic treatment. The purpose of wearing your retainer is to solidify your new smile, but failure to wear your retainer can reverse the results you worked so hard to achieve. We provide clear retainers, bonded retainers and Hawley retainers.
Types of Orthodontic Treatment
When we create your custom treatment plan, we may suggest an orthodontic appliance to ensure the greatest results in the shortest amount of time. We offer a number of orthodontic appliances to treat various conditions.
Palatal Expander
Palatal expanders use gentle pressure to widen the upper jaw, creating the necessary room for permanent teeth to grow. These orthodontic appliances are highly effective for young patients whose bones are still developing.
Snoring Prevention
Snoring is typically caused by airway obstructions, which can hinder your quality of life in more ways than one. We provide custom-made appliances to minimize snoring by keeping the airway open during sleep.
Surgical Orthodontics
Some severe orthodontic conditions, like jaw abnormalities and malocclusions, require orthognathic surgery to realign the jaws or teeth and improve oral health, oral function or overall appearance.
TMJ Treatment
If you experience frequent jaw/facial pain, or notice any grinding, clicking, or popping sounds when you open your mouth, you may have a problem with your jaw joints known as TMD or temporomandibular dysfunction. We have TMJ treatments to help relieve pain and restore jaw health.
