Naperville Braces

Traditional braces remain one of the most reliable and effective orthodontic tools for straightening teeth and correcting bite issues. At Frey Orthodontics in Naperville, we offer the Pitts 21 self-ligating braces system along with clear ceramic brackets for patients who prefer a more subtle look.

Metal and ceramic brackets are bonded directly to each tooth and connected by archwires and small elastic bands. Through regular adjustments with Dr. Frey, these components work together to apply steady, controlled pressure that gradually guides teeth into healthier positions. Because braces can sometimes close gaps and align teeth faster than other methods, they often help keep total treatment time shorter. They're also one of the most budget-friendly options available, which makes them a popular choice for Naperville families.

Naperville Invisalign

For patients who want straighter teeth without the look and feel of brackets and wires, our Naperville Invisalign program offers a clear, removable alternative. The system uses a series of custom-fitted plastic trays that fit comfortably over the teeth and are swapped out every one to two weeks to keep things moving.

Invisalign aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours per day for best results. The trays come out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, which means no food restrictions and easier dental care during treatment. Invisalign works best for patients who follow the plan closely, since the system relies on consistent wear to stay on schedule. Treatment times vary, but many patients finish within 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of their case.

Invisalign handles many of the most common orthodontic concerns with results comparable to braces. For more complex cases, Dr. Frey can help determine whether Invisalign, braces, or a combination approach will deliver the best outcome.
