redwood City Facial Harmony Orthodontics

We take your entire face—including the jaw bones, muscles, and teeth—into consideration when predicting and finalizing treatment to create a fully functional and aesthetic smile.

What is Facial Harmony Orthodontics?

Facial Harmony Orthodontics is a specialized approach to orthodontic treatment that focuses on achieving a balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile. Unlike traditional orthodontics, which primarily focuses on straightening teeth, Facial Harmony Orthodontics considers the overall relationship between your teeth, jaw, and facial features. Facial Harmony Orthodontics often involves a combination of orthodontic treatment, such as braces or clear aligners, and possibly orthognathic surgery in some cases. The goal is to achieve a beautiful and functional smile that complements your facial features and overall appearance.

What can I expect with Facial Harmony Orthodontics?

We offer skeletal anchorage orthodontic treatment to correct a “gummy” smile or “long” upper jaw bone utilizing mini pins that can pull the jaw up and make the extra bone naturally “shrinks”. We also work on the bones of the face. So, for under developed faces and cheek bones, typically seen with underbites, we can now help grow the upper jaw and the cheek bones and develop the middle section of the face giving our patients more harmonious beautiful faces. For our patients who have a narrow upper jaw due to sucking their thumbs as young kids, we can widen the bones of the upper jaw giving the tongue much more room which, in turn, increases the size of the airway and provides for better breathing.

With Facial Harmony Orthodontics, we can:

Eliminate over- and underbites

Develop cheek bones

Improve facial profile

Eliminate a gummy smile

Correct a “long” face

Widen airways in the throat
