Calgary Orthodontic Specialist Shares Some Great Information

Calgary Orthodontist, Dr. Cory Liss, knows it's important to give the 'straight talk' when it comes to orthodontic treatment, and shares information so that parents and teens can make the right decision about braces. 

Orthodontic treatment has come a long way since the days of heavy metal wires and brackets, bulky headgear and the associated "nerd factor." Today's teenagers get more than straight teeth at the orthodontist's office -- they get fashion accessories.

Image-conscious teens can now choose from a wide range of options to straighten their teeth while maintaining their "cool factor," including tooth-colored or clear brackets; rainbow-colored wires and bands; or nearly invisible, removable appliances called Invisalign.
