Kansas City & Liberty | Braces
Braces in Liberty and Kansas City are a great choice for fixing complicated problems. They often work faster to straighten teeth and close gaps than other options. A big plus for braces is that you don't have to wear them for very long.
Also, modern braces are smaller and more compact than they used to be. They’re a lot more comfortable, too.
At Kanning Orthodontics, Dr. Kanning and our expert team use LightForce clear braces to gently move your teeth where they should go.
Kansas City & Liberty Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are really popular with both patients and orthodontists in Kansas City and Liberty. Our clear aligner system doesn't use metal brackets or bands. Instead, it has several clear, removable aligners that slowly adjust your teeth.
These aligners are made from smooth plastic and are made just for you. Dr. Kanning will have you switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks to make sure your teeth are moving in the right direction.
To really succeed with aligners, it's super important to follow the rules! You need to wear your aligners for 20 – 22 hours every day during your treatment. If you don't, it might not work as well and could take longer to get your teeth how you want them.
Clear aligners are great for a lot of tooth problems. But it might not always be the best for really tricky cases. Set up a free consultation with Dr. Kanning at Kanning Orthodontics in Kansas City or Liberty. Our team can help you figure out if clear aligners are the best choice for you.
