Treatment Options in
Cedar Rapids

Cedar Rapids Braces

Braces in Cedar Rapids are a top pick for fixing tricky tooth troubles. They can work quicker at getting teeth in line and closing spaces than some other methods, so you might not have to wait as long for a great smile.

Plus, braces don't need the fancy technology or pricey gear that newer options do, making them a wallet-friendly choice for orthodontic care.

At Elite Orthodontics, we've got all your braces needs covered. Our traditional metal braces are super at doing their job. They're made of metal or ceramic brackets that stick to your teeth, linked by wires and tiny rubber bands.

These pieces all team up to gently nudge your teeth to where they should be, especially if you keep up with visits to our doctors.

We also offer clear braces for those who want a less noticeable look and self-ligating braces that don't need rubber bands, making them a smooth option for guiding your teeth into place.

Cedar Rapids Clear Aligners

Clear Aligners are a big hit in Cedar Rapids, standing out as a preferred choice over traditional braces for patients and orthodontists at Elite Orthodontics. This system ditches the old-school brackets and bands, opting instead for a set of clear, removable aligners that gently guide your teeth into place.

Crafted from comfy plastic, clear aligners are designed to fit your teeth perfectly. Under the guidance of Dr. Novak and Dr. Swenson, you'll switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, ensuring your teeth keep moving toward their ideal positions.

For the best results, wearing your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day is crucial, just as recommended. Skipping out on wearing them can slow down your progress and extend your treatment time.

While clear aligners are fantastic for sorting out many common dental issues, it's not the only tool in our belt. At Elite Orthodontics, we also offer our in-house uLab aligners, giving you even more options for your smile journey.
