Advanced Technology
In the same way that a computer 10 years ago is not the same as a computer today, orthodontic treatments, too, have advanced by leaps and bounds. If you had braces 10 years ago or more, you will notice how different the process is now on the very first visit! Our expert orthodontists made a commitment many years ago to always keep up with the latest technology and cutting-edge treatment options.
ABQ Orthodontics relies on Planmeca & Sirona digital low-radiation x-rays and the most advanced 3D intraoral scanners by iTero. Our orthodontist is a certified Invisalign provider and we offer advanced Empower® self-ligating braces.
To benefit from our advanced technology, schedule your complimentary ABQ Orthodontics Smile Assessment today by calling our East office at (505) 458-0132 or our West office at (505) 451-7349. You may also click here to use our convenient online form.

Retainers Included With Treatment
Wrapping up your orthodontic treatment should be a happy time, but finding out you owe more money than you expected can cause even the brightest smile to dim. Part of the ABQ Orthodontics philosophy is an all-inclusive approach to treatment estimates. That means you’ll know exactly how much your braces will cost – and everything that will be included – from the outset. No hidden fees, no surprise bills, and no extra charge for your retainers.
That’s right – we include retainers as part of your orthodontic treatment and the cost is included in your estimate, too. You’re trusting us with your teeth, and we take that responsibility very seriously. By eliminating unexpected costs, we’re proving every day that ABQ Orthodontics is a name you can rely on.

Same-Day Appointments
At ABQ Orthodontics, you can find comfort in knowing that your orthodontic needs are our priority. We don’t put you on a waiting list for your first appointment like other orthodontic offices might do. You won’t have to wait weeks or months just to find out that your transition to a new smile can’t start for several weeks. Our team at ABQ Orthodontics will get you in the door as quickly as possible, and even get your braces and orthodontic treatment started on the same day as your appointment, if you request it. We welcome you to explore this option and discuss your preferences with our orthodontist.
