Orthodontics in El Paso

Orthodontics is the area of dentistry focused on improving the alignment of a patients’ teeth and bite. When teeth are crowded, spaced unevenly, or don’t come together properly, it can affect not only the appearance of their smile, but also their ability to clean their teeth effectively and maintain long-term oral health.

Here Prickly Pear Dental Care, we approach orthodontics with careful planning and attention to detail. Proper alignment can make daily brushing and flossing easier, reduce uneven wear, and create a smile that feels balanced and natural. Whether you’re looking for subtle refinement or more noticeable changes, our goal is to support lasting health while helping you feel confident in your smile.

We are proud to offer ClearCorrect® clear aligners, a modern orthodontic system that uses a series of custom-made, transparent trays to gently guide teeth into alignment. Clear-aligner therapy has become a trusted alternative to traditional braces, offering a discreet and comfortable way to improve your smile without brackets or wires.

ClearCorrect aligners are designed using advanced digital-planning technology to create a precise, customized fit. Each aligner is carefully engineered to apply gradual, controlled movement while remaining smooth and comfortable. Because they are removable, you can continue enjoying your favorite foods and maintain your normal brushing and flossing routine throughout treatment.

With thoughtful case selection and detailed planning, clear-aligner therapy can achieve meaningful, predictable improvements in both alignment and bite. Dr. Flores will monitor your progress closely at every stage, ensuring your treatment remains safe, effective, and tailored to your goals.
