Orthodontics & Clear Aligners in Anthem, AZ
Straighten your teeth and improve your bite with clear aligners or traditional braces, right here in our Anthem office.
Straighter Teeth
A Straighter, Healthier Smile
Orthodontic treatment gently moves your teeth into better positions. Beyond a more even smile, straighter teeth are easier to clean and can make your bite more comfortable.
We offer clear aligners, like Invisalign, and traditional braces. Dr. Kayat will create a treatment plan around your teeth, your lifestyle and your goals.
Orthodontics can help with:
- Crooked or crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite, underbite or crossbite
- Teeth that have shifted over time
- Teeth that are hard to clean because they overlap

Questions
Orthodontics FAQ
Am I too old for orthodontics?
Not at all. Teeth can be moved at any age, and many of our orthodontic patients are adults.
How long does treatment take?
It depends on how much your teeth need to move. Some cases take only months, while others take longer. Dr. Kayat will give you an estimate at your consultation.
How many hours a day do I wear clear aligners?
For the best results, aligners are usually worn about 20 to 22 hours a day. You take them out to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush.
How much does it cost?
Cost depends on your treatment plan. Some dental plans include orthodontic coverage, and we will check your benefits. You can also spread the cost into monthly payments with Cherry payment plans.
