The Smile Agency is a state of the art facility offering
the most advanced materials and techniques available. We utilize the cutting edge in digital radiology and
photography so that we can make a concise diagnosis of dental and oral
orthodontic problems. Treatment forecasting and computerized facial morphing
are used to accurately predict the length of treatment. And illustrate what the
patients smile might look like after treatment. We use the very latest in materials
and orthodontic care such as the Damon Bracket System and the Invisalign System.
Our state of the art sterilization techniques make certain of each patients safety.
Many Adults looking for their children assume they should wait until a child
has permanent teeth before seeing an orthodontist. In many cases treatment would
be much easier if developing problems were detected earlier. The American Association
of Orthodontists also agrees that your child should see an orthodontist no later
than age 7. Early evaluation is often the key to more efficient treatment because
it allows the orthodontist to determine the optimum time to begin treatment.
Crooked teeth, gaps between teeth and overlapping teeth can all be signs that
your child may need orthodontic treatment. If you see any of these signs or if
you suspect a problem it is advisable to see an orthodontist. Additional indications
that your child may need orthodontic treatment include; difficulty in chewing
or biting which can affect your child's oral health and comfort. |

We strive
to provide energetic and fun loving care to each patient.
While we can provide you with an estimate. There is no way for our staff to predict
exactly how long your orthodontic treatment will take to complete.
People vary in their response to orthodontic treatment so the total process may
take more of less time depending on a range of individual influences. Our main
concern is that your treatment is consistent with your oral tissue health and
provides minimal discomfort and maximum stability.
Dr. Karen Guinn and The Smile Agency team have created an office setting that
is comfortable for our patients. Our reception area offers coffee, refreshing
spa water, current periodicals, flat screen television, overhead music and a

Our treatment rooms offer magazines, overhead music, video games and televisions
in every operatory. Ask our front desk team about our contests and great prizes.
