Straighten Your Smile with Personalized Orthodontic Solutions
At Green Valley Dentistry, we offer modern orthodontic care tailored to the needs of children, teens, and adults in Henderson, NV. Our approach to orthodontics is about more than straight teeth — it’s about creating a healthy, functional bite and improving your overall oral health.
Whether you’re exploring treatment for your child or considering adult orthodontics yourself, we provide customized care designed around comfort, efficiency, and aesthetics.
Why Orthodontic Care Matters
Orthodontics isn’t only about appearance. Misaligned teeth can contribute to a range of oral health issues, including:
- Uneven wear on enamel
- Jaw strain and headaches
- Difficulty cleaning between crowded teeth
- Higher risk of tooth decay and gum disease
- Speech challenges and bite problems
By correcting misalignment, we not only enhance the beauty of your smile but also support long-term oral wellness.
Our Orthodontic Options
We provide multiple solutions for straightening teeth based on your unique needs. At Green Valley Dentistry, treatment planning is led by experienced professionals using modern tools to ensure predictable outcomes and a smooth experience.
Our orthodontic offerings include:
- Clear Aligners: A discreet and comfortable alternative to metal braces, clear aligners use a series of custom trays to gradually move your teeth into alignment. Ideal for adults and teens seeking an inconspicuous option.
- 6 Month Smiles: Perfect for cosmetic adjustments, this system focuses on the teeth that show when you smile, delivering results in about six months.
If you’re unsure which treatment is right for you, we’ll evaluate your bite and smile goals to recommend the best fit.
Advanced Technology and Personalized Care
Our technology-forward practice uses digital tools for precise diagnostics and treatment planning. With resources like digital scanners and intra-oral cameras, we streamline the process from consultation to completion.
Dr. Elizabeth Day is known for providing compassionate, thorough care and for making even the most complex treatments feel approachable. We support patients with dental anxiety through a gentle, communicative approach — including options like oral sedation when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Orthodontics
At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
We recommend an orthodontic screening by age 7. Early assessment allows us to detect developing bite issues and plan for timely intervention if needed.
Are clear aligners as effective as traditional braces?
For mild to moderate alignment concerns, yes. Clear aligners are highly effective when worn as directed. Severe cases may require other orthodontic strategies, which we’ll discuss during your consultation.
Is adult orthodontics worth it?
Absolutely. Many adults seek treatment for cosmetic or functional reasons. Thanks to clear aligners and short-term options like 6 Month Smiles, treatment can be discreet and efficient.
How long will my treatment take?
Treatment times vary depending on the complexity of your case. Some patients complete treatment in as little as six months, while others may need 12–24 months.
Will insurance cover orthodontics?
Some dental insurance plans include orthodontic benefits. Our office manager Lori will help review your coverage and offer flexible payment options to make treatment affordable.
