We not only practice, but we teach the Bioprogressive Philosophy of treatment. We have already discussed our unique diagnostic capabilities. Our treatment is just as impressive! We have incorporated space age technology to accomplish the movement of teeth with known and measured forces using one tenth (1/10) the force used with other appliance systems. This is a result of our biological approach to treatment. With lighter forces the following benefits are realized by every patient:

• Fewer extractions (over 90% of our patients do not need teeth removed)
• Longer periods between appointments (and fewer appointments)
• Shorter appointments
• Shorter treatment time (fewer months in treatment)
• Less tissue damage that can occur during treatment such as root resorption (shortening) and bone loss (periodontal disease)
• More stable/permanent treatment results
• Less pain/discomfort (isn't that nice?)

The use of digital x-ray machines allows us to take necessary films in seconds. This reduces the time necessary for your visit and associated radiation exposure.

We have used a combination of Electro-Acuscope and Myopulse for years. We dubbed the nickname "Magic Wand" to make it easier to remember. This amazing technology is available at any visit for no charge. By simply rubbing the device on your gums for a few minutes, the tightness associated with orthodontic adjustments will be relieved. It is a really cool tool! Our insatiable thirst for new ideas and new technologies that will improve our treatment translates into benefits that all our patients enjoy!
