Looking for a trusted orthodontist near Coppell, TX? Sunflower Orthodontics is based in Mansfield, and we welcome Coppell families and adults who want their care planned by a board-certified orthodontist. Getting started is easy, even from a distance. You can begin with a free consultation or a virtual Smile Assessment from home.
What Is Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontic treatment is a specialty area of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. An orthodontist is a dental specialist who has completed two to three additional years of training beyond dental school to become an expert in tooth movement and facial development. While a general dentist focuses on overall oral health, an orthodontist specializes in creating properly aligned smiles and healthy bites.
We treat a wide range of concerns for patients of all ages, including crowded teeth, gaps and spacing, overbites, underbites, crossbites and open bites. Treatment options include metal braces and Invisalign, so there's a path to a straighter smile for kids, teens and adults.
Start From Home With a Virtual Smile Assessment
If you live in Coppell, you don't need to make the trip just to find out whether treatment makes sense. Our virtual Smile Assessment lets you take the first step from home. It's an easy way to ask questions and learn about your options before you plan a visit to our Mansfield office.
What Happens at Your Free Consultation
Your first in-person visit is free, with no obligation and no pressure to commit. Dr. Jae Brimhall will meet you, learn about your smile goals, examine your teeth and bite and talk through what treatment could look like for you.
If treatment is a good fit, we'll recommend an approach based on your needs, preferences and lifestyle. We'll also walk you through your insurance and financing options, so you have everything you need to make a confident decision.
Braces and Invisalign for Coppell Teens and Adults
Both options work well, and the right choice depends on your case and your routine. Traditional metal braces are a strong choice for complex cases, and there's nothing to remember to put in each day. Invisalign aligners are removable and nearly invisible, which makes them a favorite with adults and teens who want a more discreet option.
Dr. Jae will help you weigh the options at your consultation. Once treatment is finished, custom retainers hold your teeth in their new positions so your results last.
Why Choose a Board-Certified Orthodontist?
Every orthodontist completes specialty training after dental school. Board certification is an extra step on top of that, and it reflects a commitment to high standards of care. Working with a board-certified orthodontist gives you an experienced eye and professional oversight you simply can't get from mail-order aligner kits or DIY solutions.
For Coppell patients, that means the trip to Mansfield comes with specialist-level care from your first visit through your final one.
Is Orthodontic Treatment Right for You?
Almost anyone can benefit from orthodontic treatment, and it's rarely too early or too late to start.
- Children. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an early orthodontic exam by age 7. An early look lets us spot issues while the jaw is still growing.
- Teens. The teen years are often an ideal window, since permanent teeth have come in and the jaw is still developing.
- Adults. Plenty of adults straighten their teeth, and Invisalign makes treatment more discreet than many people expect.
Common signs you or your child may benefit from seeing an orthodontist include crowded or crooked teeth, noticeable gaps, difficulty chewing or biting, jaws that click or shift, thumb sucking beyond early childhood or a bite that doesn't seem to line up correctly.
