Braces & Invisalign in Franklin & Lewisburg
Modern Orthodontics, Made for You
Orthodontic treatment has come a long way, and at Cox Orthodontics, we offer the latest, most comfortable options for you. Dr. Evan Cox uses cutting-edge technology to customize treatments that fit your lifestyle, whether you're looking for braces or Invisalign.
TADs
TADs (temporary anchorage devices) may sound complex, but they make orthodontic treatment simpler and more effective. These small titanium anchors help guide your teeth into place with more precision, giving Dr. Cox extra control over tooth movement.
If Dr. Cox recommends TADs as part of your treatment plan, don’t worry—they’re small, comfortable, and placed right in our office. TADs can help move teeth that might be difficult to shift with braces or aligners alone, making treatment faster and more predictable.
For many patients, TADs mean better results in less time. Whether they’re used to help close gaps, correct bite issues, or fine-tune your final results, they work behind the scenes to give you the best smile possible.
Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics, also known as orthognathic surgery, helps correct jaw misalignments that can't be fixed with orthodontics alone. This specialized treatment improves how your teeth and jaws work together, making everyday things like eating, speaking, and breathing more comfortable.
If Dr. Cox determines surgical orthodontics is the best option, don't worry—you won't be going through it alone. Your treatment will be a team effort, with Dr. Cox working closely with an experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon to ensure the best possible outcome.
While surgery might sound intimidating, the results can be life-changing. Not only can it improve jaw function, but it can also enhance facial symmetry and overall appearance. Most patients find the long-term benefits—like better bite alignment, less jaw pain, and a more harmonious profile—well worth the journey.
Gum Recontouring
If you feel like your teeth look too short or your gum line is uneven, gum contouring can help bring balance to your smile. This simple, precise procedure reshapes the gum tissue to create a more symmetrical, proportionate appearance.
Dr. Cox may recommend gum contouring on its own or as a finishing touch to your orthodontic treatment. He carefully sculpts the gumline using advanced techniques to enhance your smile's shape without compromising comfort.
For many patients, gum contouring is a small change that makes a big difference. Not only does it improve the way your smile looks, but it can also help with oral health by reducing areas where plaque and bacteria can build up.
