Braces & Clear Aligners | Penticton, BC
Find a Smile Solution for Your Entire Family
We’re not your typical orthodontic practice. Which makes sense because you’re not typical, either. Every smile is unique, and there is more to a great smile than just straight teeth.
Your smile reflects who you are and can impact how you feel about yourself. We provide braces and clear aligners to patients of all ages around Penticton, and our goal at Beam Orthodontics is to help the real you shine through.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, involves moving the bones of the upper or lower jaw or both. Surgery can lengthen or shorten the jaws and move them to create a more aligned bite, which can help improve chewing, talking, and sleeping activities.
The surgery works alongside orthodontic treatments, and Dr. Paxon can use clear aligners in many orthognathic surgery treatment plans. At Beam Orthodontics, we work with local dental surgeons to ensure the best care and outcome for our patients from start to finish.
Myofunctional Therapy
Imbalances and abnormal behaviors of our lips, cheeks, and tongue muscles often cause orthodontic problems. How you rest your tongue when you're not eating, speaking, or swallowing can throw off the balance of your face.
Beam Orthodontics offers the service of an in-house orofacial myofunctional therapist. This helps improve your breathing pattern and the behavior of your lips, cheeks, and tongue muscles. This can reduce treatment complexity and increase orthodontic stability.
