Most braces start with a standard bracket, then get adjusted to fit. LightForce starts differently.
Every LightForce treatment at Larson begins with a detailed digital scan of your mouth. That scan drives everything, how your treatment is planned, how your brackets are designed, and how each stage of tooth movement is mapped out before your first appointment even begins.
The result is a more precise process from day one. Fewer adjustments, fewer surprises, and a treatment experience built around your specific case rather than adapted from a generic template.
The process starts at your first visit with a full digital scan of your mouth using an orthodontic imaging scanner. That scan creates a precise three-dimensional model of your teeth, giving Dr. Larson a complete picture of your bite, spacing, and alignment before any treatment decisions are made.
From there, LightForce’s digital planning system maps out each stage of tooth movement in advance. Every bracket position is determined digitally before placement, so when you sit down for your bonding appointment, the process is efficient, accurate, and leaves nothing to guesswork.
The braces themselves are 3D-printed to match the specific contours of each tooth, allowing for more controlled movement throughout treatment.
Because the fit is more precise from the start, there is less need for manual adjustments along the way, which means fewer office visits and a more predictable treatment timeline.
LightForce treatment at Larson is built around a fully digital process, which means every detail of your care is planned around your specific case, not adapted from a standard template.
At Larson Family Orthodontics, we believe quality orthodontic care should come with complete transparency. During your complimentary consultation, Dr. Larson will walk you through a clear cost breakdown before any decisions are made. Every cost question gets a straight answer before treatment begins.
Wonderful ortho! We decided to go with Dr. Larson for our son’s braces and couldn’t be happier…
I stopped in without an appointment because I was having an unexpected issue with my retainer.
Our first born is ready for braces so naturally, we made several ortho appointments in order to find a good fit.
Traditional braces use standard brackets that are manually adjusted to fit each patient. LightForce uses a fully digital process, every bracket position is determined by a precise digital scan and planned before placement.
The result is more accurate treatment from day one, fewer adjustments, and fewer broken brackets throughout.
At Larson Family Orthodontics, we offer clear, transparent pricing during your complimentary consultation. We also offer in-house financing with no interest and accept most PPO insurance plans. We will walk you through every option before any decisions are made.
Some soreness is normal after placement and adjustment appointments as teeth begin to move. Because LightForce brackets are designed to fit the specific contours of each tooth, many patients find the overall experience more comfortable than traditional braces. Any discomfort typically resolves within 48 to 72 hours.
Because LightForce treatment is digitally planned from the start, fewer manual adjustments are needed compared to traditional braces. We also offer remote monitoring through the Grin app, which reduces the number of in-office visits required without compromising the quality of your care. Learn more about virtual monitoring.
Your first consultation at Larson Family Orthodontics is complimentary. No obligation, no pressure, just an honest conversation about what’s best for your family.
We’ll review your records, walk you through your options clearly, and make sure you leave with real answers.
