The Ortho House

An expander is a small custom-made appliance that gently widens the upper jaw while your kid’s mouth is still growing. Most kids settle in within days and barely give it a second thought.

Here’s how we do it at The Ortho House: Quick iTero scan. Zero goop, zero trays. We design and 3D-print an appliance made specifically for your child’s exact teeth and mouth. Gentle. Tech-forward. Kid-easy.

Best ages? 7–10, while growth is on your side. Opens room for developing teeth, helps correct asymmetries, and sets up a more predictable path ahead.

Braces off for this awesome patient at The Ortho House & a big win for both function and esthetics 🙌✨🦷

This patient came to us with an anterior open bite and midlines that didn’t quite line up. Through careful planning and consistent progress, we were able to close the open bite, bring the midlines into harmony, and create a more balanced, functional smile 😁

Not only does everything look better—this result helps with proper biting, chewing, and long-term stability too. 👏🏻🎉

So stoked for this guy getting his braces off & finishing Phase I treatment! The team was so excited to cheer him on! 😁🦷✨

Congratulations to this sweet patient finishing Phase 1 treatment! ✨🦷👏🏻

New smile we’re so proud of! ✨🦷

This patient came in with goals to broaden his smile, level out the slants in both the upper and lower arches, and protect the front teeth from further wear—we made it happen 🙌

By creating more balance and proper alignment, we not only enhanced the smile aesthetically, but also improved function to help prevent future breakdown of those front teeth. 👏🏻😁

Fun fact! He wore his trays so well even while commuting to Las Vegas for his DJ residency! 🎧🎶🎸

Reviews like this one make our day! ✨Thank you to this wonderful family for trusting us to take care of their daughter’s orthodontic treatment & for writing these kind words! This is why we love what we do! 😁🦷

Let’s talk Phase One with Invisalign ✨

Early treatment is all about creating space for what’s to come. Think of it as making the “parking lot” bigger so all those permanent teeth have room to come in exactly where they should.

With Invisalign, we can help broaden the smile, develop the dental arches and consolidate spaces to create a “lane” for the future erupting canines —the goal is to prevent teeth from getting stuck on the inside or out of position.

Not every patient needs it, but for the right candidate, Phase One Invisalign can set the stage for a healthier, more confident smile down the road 🙌🦷✨

This college student-athlete ⚽️ made the commitment—and the commute—all the way through her Invisalign journey, balancing college life while transforming her smile 🙌

Invisalign is perfect for students. It’s clear, comfortable, and fits right into your routine whether you’re on campus, at the library, or grabbing coffee between classes. ☕

The result? A confident, healthy smile that was 100% worth the effort 😁

Headed to college & want to straighten your teeth? Invisalign aligners could be the perfect treatment option for an A+ smile! ✨🦷
