Braces in Excelsior

Braces remain one of the most effective and reliable ways to align teeth and correct bites. At our Excelsior office, we offer both Unitek™ Metal Braces and Clarity™ Clear Braces from 3M.

With both styles, you’ll receive modern, comfortable treatment with results you can trust. No matter your age or case complexity, we’ll help you find the braces that fit your needs and lifestyle.

Early Orthodontic Treatment

According to the American Association of Orthodontists the best time to bring your child in for an orthodontic evaluation is around age seven. Early intervention helps guide jaw development and can prevent more serious issues later, often making future treatment faster and simpler.

We offer gentle options like Invisalign, partial braces, expanders, and retainers. Every child is different, and we’ll build a plan that supports their healthiest, happiest smile.

Orthodontic Retainers

Retainers are essential for maintaining your smile after treatment. At Lake Minnetonka Orthodontics, we offer Vivera™ clear retainers from Invisalign, Hawley retainers, and permanent options.

We’ll help you choose the right retainer to match your lifestyle and ensure your results last for years to come. Keeping your smile straight and healthy is just as important to us as creating it.
