Advanced Technology for Smiles

ODB Ormco Direct Bonding brings unmatched accuracy, comfort, and efficiency to your braces journey. Instead of traditional freehand placement, this advanced system uses precise positioning guidelines, tooth-specific bracket designs, and strong adhesives to ensure every bracket is placed exactly where it belongs. With Dr. Willing Crutchfield’s expertise, patients benefit from shorter appointments, smoother tooth movement, fewer errors, and more predictable results. ODB supports treatment for crowding, spacing, bite issues, and general misalignment, making it an ideal choice for adults, teens, and children seeking a more accurate, comfortable, and efficient start to orthodontic treatment.

Dental Monitoring is an advanced remote-care system that lets your orthodontist track your progress through weekly smartphone scans instead of frequent in-office visits. Using the Dental Monitoring app and ScanBox, patients capture consistent images that are analyzed with AI to monitor tooth movement, hygiene, appliance fit, and overall progress. Your orthodontist reviews each scan, sends guidance, and makes adjustments when needed, helping treatment stay on track. With fewer appointments, more accurate tracking, faster responses, improved compliance, and enhanced communication, Dental Monitoring offers a modern, flexible, and highly efficient orthodontic experience that fits seamlessly into any lifestyle.

SureSmile Wire Technology combines digital scans, 3D treatment planning, and robotically bent archwires to deliver faster, more accurate orthodontic results. Instead of manually bending wires, your orthodontist uses a precise computer-guided system to design the ideal tooth-movement pathway. Digital imaging creates a detailed 3D model, treatment is planned virtually, and robotic technology shapes wires with exceptional accuracy. This leads to more efficient progress, fewer adjustments, improved comfort, and highly predictable outcomes. Suitable for teens and adults with crowding, spacing, or bite issues, SureSmile offers a modern, streamlined experience that shortens treatment time and enhances your final smile.

Clear aligners offer a modern, discreet alternative to braces using smooth, removable trays that gently guide teeth into place. At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, we provide three advanced systems—Spark™ (Ormco), SureSmile®, and our in-house OBC Clear—to deliver customised solutions for every patient. Digital scans and 3D planning ensure precise tooth movement, better fit, and predictable results while eliminating messy impressions. Aligners allow you to eat freely, maintain normal hygiene, and enjoy irritation-free comfort. With faster communication, eco-friendly workflows, and visual treatment previews, our aligner options are ideal for teens, adults, and busy professionals seeking a seamless orthodontic experience.

At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, our Hybrid approach combines the precision of braces with the flexibility of clear aligners to deliver the best of both worlds. Braces are used initially to address significant tooth movements, correct the bite, and ensure foundational alignment. Once major corrections are achieved, treatment transitions to clear aligners, allowing for fine-tuning, improved aesthetics, and easier daily management. This combination provides more control, predictable outcomes, and a smoother experience than relying on a single method. Hybrid Orthodontics is ideal for patients seeking efficient treatment for complex cases while enjoying the convenience and comfort of modern aligners.

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) provides detailed 3D imaging of the teeth, jaw, and airway, offering far more insight than traditional 2D X-rays. At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, we use CBCT to evaluate tooth alignment, jaw structure, and airway health, identifying potential obstructions, sinus issues, or tongue posture concerns. This precise imaging supports early detection, informed treatment planning, and collaboration with specialists for snoring, sleep apnea, or orthodontic needs. Quick, safe, and comfortable, CBCT scans empower patients with a visual understanding of their anatomy, enabling tailored orthodontic and airway-focused care for improved breathing, facial development, and overall wellness.

Our advanced 3D scanning technology captures a precise digital model of your teeth and bite without messy trays or putty, creating a faster, cleaner, and more comfortable start to treatment. At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, the scanner captures thousands of images per second to produce detailed 3D models for aligners, retainers, or braces. This method eliminates errors from traditional impressions, allows instant data review, and speeds communication with labs or manufacturers. Patients enjoy a gentle, gag-free experience, visual treatment previews, and eco-friendly workflows, ensuring accuracy, comfort, and confidence from the very first step of your orthodontic journey.

At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, our in-house lab with advanced 3D printing transforms digital scans into precise, custom orthodontic appliances with unmatched speed and accuracy. Producing devices onsite eliminates reliance on external labs, shortens turnaround times, and allows immediate adjustments or replacements. Each appliance is designed digitally and printed layer by layer with medical-grade materials, ensuring optimal fit, comfort, and function. This workflow gives our team complete quality control, reduces errors, and supports predictable treatment outcomes. With a cleaner, eco-friendly process and faster access to appliances, patients enjoy a more convenient, personalized, and confident orthodontic experience.

At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, we offer both in-office and take-home whitening systems designed to lift stains safely and effectively. In-office treatments provide fast, noticeable results with controlled application and minimal sensitivity, while custom take-home trays allow gradual, precise whitening at your convenience. Each system is tailored using digital scans for even gel application and maximum comfort. Combining both approaches can achieve dramatic, long-lasting brightness. Professional whitening penetrates deeper than store-bought products, protecting enamel and gums. Our treatments help patients enjoy a radiant, confident smile with predictable, comfortable, and effective results every time.

At Orthodontics By Crutchfield, we prioritize patient comfort with cold laser therapy, a non-invasive red light treatment that eases soreness from braces or aligner adjustments. Using low-level red light, the therapy stimulates tissues, reduces inflammation, and accelerates natural healing. Quick, gentle sessions target sensitive areas, helping patients feel comfortable during early tooth movement, routine adjustments, or new aligner changes. Safe and drug-free, it requires no medications or numbing agents, making it suitable for all ages. Backed by research, cold laser therapy supports a smoother, more pleasant orthodontic experience, reducing discomfort and helping patients return to normal activities faster.
