Treatment Options

A certified specialist in orthodontics has undergone the extra training necessary to prevent, diagnose, and treat irregularities in the alignment of the teeth and jaws.

Orthodontists are experienced in using braces, Invisalign, and other appliances to straighten the teeth and give you a healthy, stable bite.

Great orthodontic treatment sets the stage for a lifetime of good oral health, and relying on a specialist will help you achieve stunning, lasting results.

A beautiful smile will give you a major boost in confidence. However, the benefits go beyond your appearance and self-esteem.

Straightening your teeth is important for:

• Creating easier access for brushing and flossing, improving oral hygiene
• Eliminating uneven wear and erosion of the enamel
• Stopping teeth grinding
• Improving the function and health of the teeth for better chewing and speaking
• Reducing the breakdown of jaw bones to prevent tooth loss and pain
• Distributing bite forces evenly to reduce TMJ pain, headaches, and migraines
• Improving breathing and minimizing sleep apnea when combined with a surgical plan
• Creating symmetry in the facial structure
• Making room for implants in cases of missing teeth

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that your child visit an orthodontist at the age of seven. This allows Dr. Noyce to monitor the development of their teeth and jaws and tell you when it’s time to start treatment.

Early intervention can simplify future treatment, potentially avoiding the need for surgery or extractions if red flags are noticed early.

Dr. Noyce is a specialist in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics. He completed dental school and his orthodontic residency at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

In between, he proudly served as a Captain in the United States Army for three years, including a year deployed to Iraq, where he provided dental care to U.S. troops and Iraqi detainees.

Following his residency, Dr. Noyce practiced for nearly five years in Wisconsin before making the move to Missouri.

While you’re never too old to perfect your smile, undergoing orthodontic treatment as a child or teen will help you achieve more dramatic results in less time. In some cases, putting off treatment could lead to the need for surgery or extractions.
