Gold is back!

Gone are the days when wearing braces was unpleasant. Now, with aesthetically pleasing, elegant gold braces, patients can look great not only after treatment, but during it as well. Gold braces are similar to traditional metal braces in many ways. They are made of stainless steel but are uniquely coated in 24k gold. The gold coating may be considered a more cosmetic option than traditional metal braces. And, the cost of gold braces is surprisingly comparable to most clear braces.

Self-ligating Braces: More Comfortable Way to Straighten Your Teeth

Self-ligating braces use little metal doors to hold wires instead of elastic ties. This, in theory, would diminish friction, thus reducing treatment time. Self-ligating braces have also been shown to provide a more reliable ligation, more efficient tooth movement, and better control of tooth rotation compared to conventional brackets. Studies have shown that self-ligating braces have resulted in a 4-month reduction in treatment time and four fewer sessions during treatment.

A Letter from Dr. Shaw

Dear valued patients and friends, 

As I celebrate my 40th year of orthodontics in Marysville, I want to thank all of you who have given me the privilege of being your orthodontist. Your confidence and trust in me and my team has been professionally rewarding and personally humbling. The relationships that I've formed with many of you have been a big and memorable part of my life, and I will forever be grateful for the friendship opportunities that emanated from my career in this beautiful area.

It is with mixed emotions that I announce I am retiring from the active practice of orthodontics. I'm looking forward with excitement to retirement and spending more relaxed time with family and friends.  I look back with fondness and pride to my years here with you. Orthodontics involves teamwork from start to finish, and we have made many wonderful accomplishments together. Thank you for your kindness, your loyalty, and your trust.
