Here at Class 1 Orthodontics we want your orthodontic treatment journey to be as positive and carefree as possible. That’s why we have moved exclusively to self-ligating braces. We believe these braces will significantly improve your orthodontic treatment experience.

At Class 1 Orthodontics, we’re excited to be using the latest in orthodontic appliances for the benefit of you, our patients, and the system of self-ligating braces we offer is exactly that!
What are self-ligating braces?
