Braces That Give You a Reason To Smile
At SPOCS Orthodontics, we believe that everyone deserves a confident, radiant smile. That’s why we offer the latest advancements in braces technology, combined with Dr. Mansour’s mastery and expertise in orthodontics. We start every smile journey with a personalized treatment plan, ensuring your path to a straighter, healthier smile is comfortable and effective.
What Are Braces and How Do They Work?
Braces are appliances used by orthodontists to fix misalignments in your smile or bite. They achieve this through a well-orchestrated application of gentle, continuous pressure. Tiny brackets, bonded to the front of each tooth, act as anchors. A thin, flexible archwire is threaded through these brackets and produces the pressure needed to shift teeth.
Using controlled adjustments, an orthodontist will strategically tighten the wire over time, exerting targeted force on the teeth. These adjustments prompt the body’s natural bone remodeling process. The bone surrounding the teeth rebuilds in the new desired direction, allowing the teeth to shift into proper alignment. The result? A beautiful, healthy smile that reflects the dedication of both you and your orthodontic team.

Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces blend in with your natural teeth, making them a great option for patients who want a more discreet orthodontic experience while still benefiting from a reliable bracket system.
WildSmiles Braces
For children who need braces at an early age, we use WildSmiles braces — they work just like traditional braces but come in fun bracket shapes (like hearts, stars, footballs, and other designs). This helps younger kids feel excited about caring for their smile while achieving great results.
Benefits of Braces For Adults
- Straighter Smile: Address malocclusions like crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and more.
- Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean, which will reduce the risk of plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease, leading to better long-term oral health.
- Enhanced Bite Function: Braces can correct bite problems that can lead to jaw pain, headaches, difficulty chewing, and tooth wear.
- Confidence Boost: Having a straighter smile can significantly improve your self-esteem and confidence.
- Comfort-focused Care: We provide the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser for relief from soreness during treatment.
Benefits of Braces For Teens
- Easier and Faster: A teen’s softer and less rigid bone allows for shorter treatment times.
- Improved Facial Development: Braces can address jaw misalignment issues during a crucial growth period, promoting proper facial development
- Boosted Self-Esteem: A straighter smile can significantly improve a teen’s self-esteem, positively impacting their social interactions and overall well-being.
- Long-Term Oral Health Benefits: Straighter teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of future dental problems like cavities, gum disease, and tooth wear.
- Potential Cost Savings: Addressing orthodontic issues early can prevent the need for more complex and expensive treatments later in life.
- Improved Speech and Chewing: Braces can correct bite problems that can affect speech clarity and chewing efficiency.
- Reduced Risk of Injuries: Properly aligned teeth are less susceptible to accidental damage.
What Our Patients Say About Us

“This was the second set of braces my daughter had we were so lucky to find Dr Mansour he is excellent! My daughter had an underbite and now her bite is normal…Thank You!!!”
Nick G.
“Dr. Mansour was one of just a couple orthodontists to respond to voicemails about getting an “emergency” appointment for my second grade daughter when her appliance broke and was hurting her. He was the *only* one willing to see her same day. Great patient manner — totally put her at ease. Sorted out the problem in literally a couple minutes. One of these rare people who goes above and beyond — I would recommend SPOCS Orthodontics to anyone!”
Lisa D.
“Love everything about SPOCS Orthodontics! Dr. Mansour was great with my daughter’s Invisalign treatments and her teeth now look perfect. Will definitely be back with my other children. Highly recommend!”
Stephanie M.
“Dr. Mansour offered options to consider in my treatment. He was also understanding when I stated that I would need time to weigh out each of them in making a decision. In terms of aestethics and efficiency, I found the office to be very clean, well-lit and up-to-date technologically. My wait time was minimal at best and the office overall had an upbeat feel to it as each staff member greeted me with a hello as I passed by them. My experience was an overall great one!”
