LightForce™ Braces
With LightForce, your orthodontic treatment is as unique as you. Each bracket is made specifically for your tooth, allowing Dr. Payne to custom-design a faster, more comfortable treatment plan.
TMD Treatment
Jaw pain, difficulty chewing and “popping” or clicking noises from the temporomandibular jaw joint can be corrected with the right treatment.
Orthognathic Surgery Orthodontics
Treats and corrects abnormalities of the facial bones, specifically the jaws and the teeth. Often, these abnormalities (such as overbite) cause difficulty chewing, talking and sleeping. In conjunction with orthodontic treatment, can improve the overall facial profile.
Advanced 3D Imaging
We utilize 3D imaging technology from the very start of treatment – no suffering through gooey impressions here! All digital treatment plans improve accuracy and decrease treatment time.
Early Treatments
The American Association of orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic exam at age 7 when their first adult teeth (secondary teeth) begin to appear.

The field of teen orthodontics has come a long way! Dr. Payne offers the most advanced orthodontic treatment options and technology in the greater Sacramento, CA area, including Invisalign Teen®.
Adult Orthodontics
