For Sugarland, Texas Orthodontists, A Day Wasted Is An Opportunity Lost to Create a Healthy, Winning Smile!

Choose What's Right For You

Orthodontists Dr. Richard Boyd and Dr. Fred Garrett - with 2 locations in Sugar Land and Rosenberg, TX - offer a variety of solutions including traditional metal braces, Damon Braces, clear braces, Invisalign and Invisalign Teen ( the "brace-less" alternative to straight teeth) in addition to lingual invisible braces inside the teeth so no will know you are undergoing orthodontic treatment!

With a reputation of being "Gentle Dentists", Dr.'s Fred Garrett and Richard Boyd employ modern techniques, including dental lasers and mini orthodontic implants, to treat a wide variety of complex orthodontic problems in children and adults. With that kind of dedication, is it any wonder that Garrett-Boyd Orthodontics has been practicing in the Houston area for over 30 years?

Consider the Facts

The benefits of having healthy teeth and proper jaw alignment speaks volumes: crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain. This can result in tooth decay, infected gums and even lead to tooth loss. Other orthodontic problems can contribute to abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints. These can lead to chronic headaches and face or neck pain. Treatment by an orthodontist can be less costly than the additional care required to treat dental problems arising as a result of orthodontic problems. For most people, a beautiful smile is the most obvious benefit of orthodontics. After your braces come off, you'll feel more self-confident.

There's a Smile With Your Name On It

Certainly the earlier you seek to initiate orthodontic treatment the better. But you'll be happy to know that orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. In fact, one of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over twenty-one.

We're the Invisalign Professionals

Developed with orthodontists, Invisalign is a virtually invisible solution, so you can smile both during treatment and after. In fact, almost no one will know you are wearing them unless you tell. By using a series of clear, removable aligners that are changed about every two weeks, Invisalign gradually re-aligns your teeth toward the smile you've always wanted.

The Earlier the Better

Studies show that it's best for the orthodontist to see children by age 7 to advise if orthodontic treatment is required and the best time for that patient to be treated. The first permanent molars and incisors have usually come in by that time, and crossbites, crowding and other problems can be evaluated.

When treatment is begun early, the orthodontist can guide the growth of the jaw and guide incoming permanent teeth. Early treatment can also regulate the width of the upper and lower dental arches, gain space for permanent teeth, avoid the need for permanent tooth extractions, reduce likelihood of impacted permanent teeth, correct thumb-sucking, and eliminate abnormal swallowing or speech problems. In other words, early treatment can simplify later treatment.

Invisalign Teen

Invisalign Teen is a new product that can straighten your child's teeth without the hassle, discomfort, and embarrassment of traditional braces. Your teen will receive a series of clear, virtually invisible aligners from the orthodontist, approximately every 8 weeks
