Orthodontics in Newmarket, ON
Straighter teeth and a healthier bite, with clear aligners or traditional braces for teens and adults.
About Orthodontics in Newmarket
Orthodontic treatment gently moves teeth into a better position. The result is a smile that looks more even and a bite that works more comfortably. Straighter teeth are also easier to clean, which supports your long-term oral health.
At East River Dental Care, we offer two proven paths to a straighter smile, Invisalign clear aligners and traditional braces. We help both teens and adults, and we will help you choose the option that suits your teeth, your lifestyle and your goals.
Every plan starts with a conversation. We listen to what you want to change, examine your teeth and bite, and explain what treatment would involve before you decide anything.
Our Orthodontic Services
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to move your teeth step by step. It is a discreet way to straighten teeth for teens and adults, and it fits more easily around work, school and social plans. Explore Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces use brackets and wires to correct crowding, spacing and bite concerns. They are a dependable choice, especially for more complex cases, and they work around the clock without needing to be taken out. Learn more about Traditional Braces.
Invisalign or Braces: Choosing What Fits You
Many patients wonder which option is better. The honest answer is that it depends on your teeth, your bite and your daily life.
- Clear aligners are nearly invisible and can be removed for eating and cleaning, but they work best when worn consistently.
- Traditional braces stay in place the entire time, which some patients prefer, and they are often well suited to more involved corrections.
- Your dentist will look at your bite and your goals to recommend the option most likely to give you the result you want.
To learn more about each option, visit our Invisalign Clear Aligners and Traditional Braces pages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I too old to straighten my teeth?
No. Many adults straighten their teeth, and healthy teeth and gums can be moved at almost any age. Your dentist will check your oral health first and explain which options suit you.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Treatment time varies with the option you choose and how much your teeth need to move. After your exam, your dentist will give you an estimate that reflects your own teeth and goals.
Does orthodontic treatment hurt?
Most patients feel some pressure or mild soreness after a new set of aligners or after braces are adjusted. This usually settles within a few days, and we will share tips to keep you comfortable.
Will I need a retainer afterward?
Yes, in most cases. Teeth can drift back toward their old positions, so a retainer helps protect your results. We will explain what to wear and for how long at the end of treatment.
Is orthodontic treatment covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your plan, and some plans limit orthodontic benefits by age. We bill insurance directly where a plan applies and offer 0% interest payment plans, and our team will explain your costs before treatment begins.
