Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry specializing in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of jaw, face and bite irregularities (malocclusions*). Orthodontic treatment is provided by an oral health care provider known as an orthodontist, who has completed two to three years of additional training beyond dental school.
Recent years have brought about many changes within the dental industry, specifically with regards to orthodontic treatment and care. Now more than ever patients are experiencing fewer incidences of cavities and missing teeth due to the heightened awareness of fluoride use and preventative dentistry. This increasing awareness on the health and look of a patient’s smile has fueled the desire for many to seek out orthodontia not only as a medical necessity, but for cosmetic reasons as well.
Whether it’s traditional braces or custom made removable appliances, orthodontics can help you have the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you’ve been waiting for!

*Malocclusion is the technical term for teeth that don’t fit together correctly. Malocclusions not only affect the teeth, but also the appearance of the face. Most malocclusions are inherited; however some are due to acquired habits such as thumb sucking and tongue thrusting. The spacing left from an adult tooth being extracted or an early loss of a baby tooth can also contribute to a malocclusion.

First time coming here I was recommend by a friend, was able to schedule me next day for an emergency wisdom tooth extraction. I didn't mind much what I had to pay even though I didn't have medical they seen me and did a great job. I hate going to the dentist, but I was numbed all the way it was in less time than I expected both top and bottom wisdom were pulled out quick and painless. I do recommend this dentist office friendly, kind, and calm to get a job done.

My Family and I have been in the care of Dr. Tran for several years now. Dr. Tran is so gentle and kind with my 12 year old -- she is fantastic with children (and adults alike). Dr. Tran's assistants and front office staff are very friendly and courteous. They actually make going to the dentist a positive experience that I wished I had in my earlier years (especially with all of the dental work I have had)! We drive from Los Altos to see Dr. Tran and its well worth the long drive to see such a skilled and trustworthy dentist.

Very friendly people working here! Employees were kind, easy to talk to, and very professional. Cybellle Tran does amazing necessary work to your teeth and does not overcharge. Trust me, she has many customers so sometimes the wait might be a little long. However, this is probably one of the best dental place around this area!!
