Matthew Ronconi Orthodontics offers metal braces, ceramic braces, Invisalign, retainers, and teeth whitening for children, teens, and adults in Salinas, CA.
Metal braces use durable stainless steel and customizable colored elastics, while ceramic braces use a clear, tooth-colored material that’s barely visible and popular with adult patients.
Invisalign is a great alternative to traditional braces for many patients, using a series of clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth and correct some bite problems without brackets or wires.
Retainers are typically recommended after braces or Invisalign treatment to keep your teeth from shifting back, and they can also correct some minor orthodontic problems on their own.
Teeth whitening is best done after braces or Invisalign treatment is complete, once your teeth are in their final position, though it’s also available as a standalone service.
Treatment length varies by case and the option chosen — braces and Invisalign both range from several months to a few years, and Dr. Ronconi will outline a timeline specific to you at your consultation.
Coverage depends on your specific insurance plan, so we recommend contacting our office to confirm your benefits before starting treatment.
