Caring for your braces or Invisalign aligners is all about keeping your teeth and appliances clean and following a few simple guidelines. With braces, be sure to brush and floss carefully around the brackets and wires, and avoid sticky or hard foods that could damage them. If you’re wearing Invisalign, take your aligners out when eating or drinking anything other than water, brush your teeth before putting them back in, and clean the trays regularly. Staying consistent with your care will help keep your treatment on track.

Not necessarily. While treatment time ultimately depends on your specific case, many adult patients are able to complete their orthodontic journey in 12–24 months—some even faster with aligners or limited touch-up plans. Our doctors will give you a realistic timeline before treatment starts.

We get it—you’re juggling kids, careers, and commitments. That’s why our offices in Westlake, Central Austin, and Steiner Ranch offer flexible hours starting at 7:30AM, quick visits with minimal wait times, and responsive scheduling. Everything is designed to fit conveniently into the pace of your day.
