Orthodontic care is evolving faster than ever, and at Farina Smiles in Tampa, FL, we’re proud to be at the forefront of innovation. We’ve embraced cutting-edge advancements to ensure every patient receives the highest level of comfort, efficiency, and precision during their smile transformation. Whether it’s advanced imaging or modern treatment appliances, our technology enhances your orthodontic experience, delivering exceptional results. Let’s explore the latest orthodontic advancements available at Farina Smiles that are transforming smiles across Tampa.
Self-Ligating Braces: The Next Generation of Braces
Gone are the days of bulky metal braces! Self-ligating braces are a modern alternative designed to reduce discomfort, speed up treatment time, and minimize office visits. Unlike traditional braces that use elastic bands, self-ligating braces feature a specialized clip to hold the archwire in place. This creates less friction and makes adjustments smoother and more efficient. Perfect for both teens and adults, this innovative option helps you achieve a straighter smile with greater ease.
Invisalign: Revolutionizing Orthodontics for All Ages
Invisalign is a clear aligner system that has redefined orthodontic care for both teens and adults. Using a series of nearly invisible aligners, Invisalign gradually moves teeth into their desired positions without the need for wires or brackets. At Farina Smiles, we use 3D imaging to create custom aligners for each patient, ensuring comfort and precision. Whether you’re a busy professional or a teenager looking for discreet treatment, Invisalign offers a convenient, flexible solution that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.
iTero Scanner: Say Goodbye to Messy Molds
Traditional dental molds can be uncomfortable and time-consuming. That’s why we use the iTero Scanner, a state-of-the-art tool that creates precise digital scans of your teeth. In just minutes, we can capture a 3D image of your smile, which is used to design custom aligners, braces, or other orthodontic appliances. The iTero system eliminates the need for messy impressions and enhances treatment accuracy, giving you a faster and more comfortable experience.
i-CAT FLX 3D Imaging: Unparalleled Diagnostic Precision
For the most accurate diagnosis and treatment planning, Farina Smiles uses the i-CAT FLX 3D imaging system. This advanced technology provides detailed, three-dimensional views of your teeth, jaw, and facial structure. It’s invaluable for complex cases, such as bite alignment issues or orthodontic needs related to breathing and sleep. The low-radiation scans are safe and quick, giving us the tools to craft a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs with unmatched precision.
Schwarz Appliances: Customized Early Treatment Solutions
Schwarz appliances are a powerful tool in early orthodontic care, particularly for children. These removable devices are designed to gently expand the upper or lower arch, creating more space for proper tooth alignment and growth. At Farina Smiles, we recommend these appliances for young patients to address issues early, often avoiding more extensive treatment down the road. Our focus on proactive care ensures that children have a strong foundation for a lifetime of healthy, confident smiles.
Palatal Expanders: Preparing for Perfect Alignment
For patients with narrow upper jaws or bite misalignment, palatal expanders can be an effective solution. These appliances gradually widen the upper jaw, creating the space needed for teeth to align properly. Palatal expanders are often used in growing children but can also benefit some adult patients. By integrating this technology into our treatment plans, we’re able to correct structural issues early, reducing the need for more invasive treatments later.
