At Petty & Bielik Orthodontics we are committed to giving every one of our patients the best orthodontic care possible—and nothing less. We want to change your assumptions about orthodontics and help you let go of whatever worries you may have about achieving your dream smile. Of all the things you can do for yourself or your children, we truly believe that a beautiful, healthy smile will have a more profound impact than you can imagine. Today’s technology offers many options that give you more control over your orthodontic treatment. Let’s work together to find you the perfect smile solution!
Braces
At our practice, we are proud to use Damon® Braces, an advanced self-ligating technology. Damon self-ligating braces are more comfortable, work more efficiently, and require fewer appointments than braces of the past.
We offer two different types of Damon Braces:
- Metal braces
- Ceramic (clear) braces
Invisalign®
There’s never been a better time to straighten your teeth with the most advanced clear aligner in the world. Our office is proud to be a certified provider of Invisalign® clear aligners, which give you a clear, convenient, and comfortable option to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
We offer:
Kids' orthodontics
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that your child receive their first orthodontic checkup no later than age seven. While your child’s teeth may appear to be straight, only an orthodontist can determine if your child may benefit from early (Two-Phase) orthodontic treatment.
Adult orthodontics
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) reports that one in four orthodontic patients is an adult. A great smile should be available to everybody, so we offer multiple options to fit the preferences of all our patients. No matter how complex your case is, we will develop a solution for you. With advanced treatments, including TADs and surgical orthodontics, your dream smile and healthiest bite are achievable at any age.
Find the best treatment for you
We know that every smile is unique—and therefore there’s no “cookie-cutter treatment” for our patients. From the complimentary initial consult all the way to your perfectly aligned smile, we take the time to listen to you so we can accommodate your orthodontic needs, finances, and schedule.
We are confident that with more than 50 years of experience, advanced technology, and carefully personalized plans, we will bring out the beautiful, healthy smile that you deserve! With our compassionate doctors and team, we will help you feel welcome and recognized as a vital part of our orthodontic family. We cannot wait to see you at your first appointment.
Comprehensive orthodontic treatment
For patients who have lost all of their baby teeth, comprehensive treatment corrects jaw and tooth misalignment, improves bites, and delivers a beautiful smile. At Petty & Bielik Orthodontics, we offer advanced, comprehensive treatment for patients of all ages. Equipped with cutting-edge technologies and decades of experience, our team will transform your smile and health with excellent orthodontic care, a customized treatment plan, and friendly service.
What is comprehensive orthodontic treatment?
Unlike limited orthodontic treatments that focus on correcting individual teeth or Two-Phase treatments that require multiple stages of correction, comprehensive treatment addresses the mouth holistically in a single phase. Using braces or aligners, we healthfully improve or correct all aspects of a patient’s smile—from their bite and jaw to the alignment of their teeth.
If you are interested in comprehensive orthodontic treatment, we’ll assess your unique health profile and anatomy, discuss your goals, and determine your smile needs. Then, our orthodontists will devise the perfect, customized treatment plan for you. This may include braces or clear aligners and can vary in length depending on many factors. Because every smile is unique, every treatment plan is unique as well.
Though comprehensive treatment looks different for everyone, the treatment goals remain the same. We deliver aesthetic and health benefits by aligning teeth, correcting malocclusion, improving bites, and creating healthier smiles.
If you are nervous about beginning comprehensive treatment, don’t worry! These days, orthodontic transformations are faster, more comfortable, and more discreet than ever. With virtually invisible braces options such as clear aligners and ceramic clear braces, and streamlined traditional metal braces, every treatment option we offer in Oak Lawn will give you the smile you deserve.
