Connect with the Braces Brigade!

At Austin Orthodontics, our patients want to get as much out of their treatment as possible. That includes asking a lot of questions and making sure they take care of both their appliances and oral health.

Would you like to learn more about what to expect during orthodontic treatment, from someone with firsthand experience? Well, our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recently developed the Braces Brigade blog, where past, present, as well as future orthodontic patients from coast to coast document their (or their child’s) orthodontic journeys. The blog will serve as a source of guidance for others as the patients undergo orthodontic care.

Our team at Austin Orthodontics encourages you to visit the Braces Brigade blog to read these great and informative blogs—who knows, maybe you’ll learn a thing or two! As always, don’t hesitate to give us a call if you have any questions about the Braces Brigade or your own orthodontic treatment with Dr. Nelson!

"What We Do Wednesday" Highlights Dr. Nelson's Surgical Orthodontics Expertise

Austin Orthodontics orthodontist Dr. Nelson manages a significant number of OGS (Orthognathic Surgery or jaw surgery) cases every year with great success. This week, our "What We Do Wednesday" focused on a few of the different treatments that our office is able to provide patients with upper to lower jaw bone irregularities as well as tooth alignment problems. OGS is a combined treatment of orthodontics and surgery, which requires great expertise and experience.

Please let us know if you have any questions about jaw surgery, or if you would like to schedule a consultation for Dr. Nelson. Take care of your teeth, and smile bright!

Our team at Austin Orthodontics has spirit!

With Invisalign, you can give the gift of a "clearly" amazing smile this holiday!

Hey parents! Focusing on your kids' teeth and oral health so much that you're neglecting your own? If you've been thinking wistfully about having your own set of perfect teeth, our staff at Austin Orthodontics can help! We are specially trained to offer an adult-friendly option for straightening teeth called Invisalign.

This course of treatment consists of a set of clear aligners that are molded to fit your teeth using a proprietary technology. You wear them all day and night, except for meals, brushing, and flossing – when you can easily slip them out to make eating and cleaning a snap!

Because they're clear, your teeth will be steadily straightening – and no one will know it but you!

Please give us a call to set up a consultation, so we can discuss the specifics of your treatment.
