Straighten your teeth at any age with our orthodontic solutions. From traditional braces to Invisalign clear aligners, we offer personalized treatment plans for children, teens, and adults to achieve healthier, more beautiful smiles.
Orthodontics isn't just about a straighter smile — although that's certainly a welcome result. Crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth can significantly impact your oral health. Teeth that overlap are harder to brush and floss effectively, creating pockets where plaque and bacteria accumulate, leading to increased risk of cavities and gum disease.
Bite problems (malocclusion) can cause uneven tooth wear, jaw pain, TMJ disorders, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Orthodontic treatment corrects these underlying issues while giving you a smile you can feel confident about.
At The Port Dental Clinic, we treat patients of all ages — from children as young as 7 for early assessment, to adults who want to straighten their teeth for the first time or correct shifting from past treatment. It's never too late to invest in a healthier, more aligned smile.
The most tried-and-true method for correcting complex alignment and bite issues. Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever. Ideal for severe crowding, significant bite corrections, and younger patients.
Virtually invisible, removable aligners that gradually shift your teeth into position. Popular with adults and teens who want a discreet option. Eat what you want, brush normally, and smile during treatment. Learn more about Invisalign →
The Canadian Association of Orthodontists recommends a first assessment by age 7. Early intervention can guide jaw growth, create space for emerging teeth, and prevent more complex (and costly) treatment later. See pediatric dentistry →
Orthodontic treatment can correct a wide range of alignment and bite issues:
Teeth that overlap or are pushed forward/backward due to insufficient jaw space. Makes cleaning difficult and increases cavity risk.
Gaps between teeth that can trap food particles, affect appearance, and sometimes indicate underlying bite issues.
Upper front teeth extend too far over the lower teeth, which can cause jaw pain, tooth wear, and gum damage.
Lower teeth protrude past the upper teeth, affecting chewing efficiency and facial profile.
Some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when biting, causing uneven wear and jaw misalignment over time.
Front teeth don't touch when the mouth is closed, making biting into food difficult and affecting speech clarity.
