Orthodontist in Wetumpka, AL: Services for the Whole Family

We offer traditional braces, ceramic braces, self-ligating braces, and Invisalign® clear aligners for families of all ages. Board-certified orthodontists Dr. Rob Owen and Dr. Frank Litchfield customize each treatment plan based on years of specialized training. Here’s what you can expect:

Treatment Options

• Traditional Metal Braces: Still the go-to for many of our families, and for good reason. Metal braces handle everything from crowded teeth to complex bite issues, and today’s brackets are smaller and more comfortable than what you might remember.
• Ceramic Braces: If your teen or you as an adult want effective treatment that blends in, tooth-colored ceramic brackets offer a more subtle look while delivering the same results.
• Self-Ligating Braces: Specialized clips replace elastic bands here, which can mean fewer adjustment visits and a more comfortable experience overall. Many families appreciate the time savings.

Invisalign® Clear Aligners

For teens and adults who want straighter teeth without traditional braces, Invisalign® offers a nearly invisible alternative. Your child can keep eating the foods they love, and brushing and flossing stay simple since the aligners are removable.

The clear design means most people won’t even realize you’re wearing them unless you come right out and tell them. Invisalign® has become one of the most popular choices for grown-ups looking to straighten their smile.

Convenient Care Options

Your time is valuable, and flexibility is built into how we deliver care:

• Virtual Orthodontic Consultations: Start exploring treatment from home, on your own schedule, before ever stepping into the office.
• Emergency Orthodontic Care: Broken bracket? Poking wire? We’re here when you need us, and same-day guidance is just a phone call away.
• Airway-Focused Orthodontics: This approach looks at the whole picture, including how your child breathes and sleeps, so we can address more than just tooth alignment.

Why Wetumpka Families Choose Our Family Orthodontist

When it comes to your family’s smiles, experience and credentials matter. Here’s what sets Montgomery, Prattville & Pike Road Pediatric Dentistry & Family Orthodontics apart:

• Board-Certified Orthodontists with Deep Roots: Dr. Rob Owen and Dr. Frank Litchfield are both board-certified, and our practice has 50+ years of care in the river region. That kind of track record gives families real confidence.
• Everything Under One Roof: As the river region’s only pediatric dentist with on-site orthodontics, you can schedule your child’s dental cleaning and braces adjustment on the same day. Co-scheduling appointments for siblings at different stages? We handle that regularly.
• Support for Every Family: Some families need extra support. Hospital dentistry and sedation options help anxious kids or those with special needs get the orthodontic care they deserve in a safe, comfortable setting.
• Your Plan, Your Timeline: Dr. Owen and Dr. Litchfield use digital imaging and 3D scanning technology to design a treatment plan that fits each individual. From Invisalign® to traditional braces, every plan is mapped to your specific goals rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
• A Community Practice: With offices in Montgomery, Prattville, and Pike Road, we’ve become a name families across Central Alabama recognize. Community involvement and the Tooth Fairy school program reflect how much our doctors and staff care about the families we serve.
