Whether you are an adult looking to have a straighter, healthier, more beautiful smile or a parent who wants to provide a child with the benefits of straighter teeth, we have multiple orthodontic options available. Dr. Robert Seaman has been straightening and improving patients’ smiles for over 30 years. We invite you to visit Seaman Family Dentistry if you or a member of your family would like to receive orthodontics in Lenexa, Kansas.

Depending on a patient’s needs, our dentist can utilize fixed or removal appliances to broaden the arches or to assist in correcting your “bite” (the relationship in which the upper and lower teeth come together). When it comes to the actual straightening of the teeth, you will have multiple options for the type of braces. You can choose from traditional metal braces, ceramic braces or ClearCorrect. Typically, we only recommend ClearCorrect for adults or very mature teens. Since these are removable, the results and length of treatment are dependent on them being worn the majority of the day and night without being misplaced.

To begin your orthodontic journey, you will need to come in for a set of orthodontic records, including X-rays, models and photos that Dr. Seaman will utilize to determine the best type of orthodontic treatment for you or your child. Once the treatment plan is established, you will sit down with Dr. Seaman and go over your options and the length of each one (if there are multiple options in your case). One of our appointment secretaries will also meet with you to go over the costs involved and the financial options available to you, as well as any insurance benefits that covers orthodontic treatment. After that, you are ready to get started.

If you are interested in finding out if orthodontic care is what you or your child needs, or if you want to discuss alternatives to straightening teeth, please call us today and schedule a complimentary smile consultation with Dr. Seaman. This visit is just a preliminary step if you are not ready to schedule an orthodontic records appointment, or you are not sure whether orthodontic care is what you are looking for or if your child needs this service. Do not hesitate to find out. Call us today at 913-631-2626 and make an appointment. We are looking forward to assisting you in this process.
