Skilled Orthodontist in Chesapeake, VA

Invisalign clear aligners are a discreet and comfortable way to achieve a stunning smile. Dr. Woodard and her team will guide you or your child through a sequence of custom-made trays that gradually move teeth into place.

Woodard Orthodontics offers all types of Invisalign® treatments, including Invisalign First® for children and Invisalign Teen®. Patients of all ages love Invisalign for its convenience and ease of use.

Traditional braces have come a long way in size and comfort, and are a tried and true method of straightening teeth. Using brackets, wires, and elastic bands, traditional braces apply constant, gentle pressure to guide teeth into place.

At Woodard Orthodontics, we offer both metal braces and clear ceramic braces. Both options use modern technology to add comfort and reduce overall treatment times. Braces are perfect for kids, teens, and adults!

Once you or your child completes Invisalign or braces treatment, you’ll be fitted with a retainer to keep your new smile in place. It’s important to wear your retainer after initial orthodontic treatment so that your teeth don’t revert to their original places. We’ll help you choose the right kind of retainer for your smile.

Phase 1 treatment, recommended for children ages 6 to 10, is important to diagnose orthodontic issues early on and prevent them from causing complications in adulthood. Dr. Woodard and her team offer a variety of options for Phase 1 treatment, including palatal expansion, headgear, and more.

At the beginning of your treatment, we’ll educate you on potential scenarios where discomfort or issues could arise. Sometimes, brackets come loose, wires poke, or your aligners may become lost or damaged. Though true orthodontic emergencies are rare, if one were to occur, we’re here to help. We always encourage patients to call our office immediately with any concerns or problems regarding their treatment.
