Invisalign
A clear choice
By using a series of clear removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth right before your eyes. Change them about every two weeks, and your teeth will move—little by little, week by week—until they have moved to the final position prescribed by Dr. Logan.
Less treatment time
A typical Invisalign case takes about a year from start to finish. You’ll see Dr. Logan every month or two to see how you’re progressing. Every few visits, you’ll be given additional aligners to continue your treatment. Commonly, the number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but treatment time and the number of aligners will vary from case to case.
Comfortable. And Invisible.
Invisalign is a virtually invisible solution. So you won’t draw undue attention to your mouth while in treatment. In fact, virtually no one will know you’re wearing them unless you tell. Comfortable to wear, our aligners are also removable so you can eat, drink, brush, and floss as usual.

Neuromuscular Orthodontics
What is Neuromuscular Orthodontics?
Neuromuscular Orthodontics blends the specialty of orthodontics with the more modern field of Neuromuscular Dentistry.
The benefits of Neuromuscular orthodontics are two fold - 1. Your teeth will be straight/aligned at the end of your treatment. 2. Your bite (occlusion) will be in neuromuscular harmony at the end of your treatment. For many people, neuromuscular harmony could mean:
- No more debilitating headaches
- No more sore muscles of the face
- Pain-free jaw joint (Temporo Mandibular Joint TMJ)
- No more popping/clicking of your TMJ
- No more ringing in your ears or tingling in your fingertips
- Corrected body posture
- and more...

Traditional Orthodontics
Metal wires are inserted into orthodontic brackets which can be made from stainless steel or a more aesthetic tooth-coloured material. The wires interact with the brackets to move teeth into the desired positions.
