At Gomez Family Dentistry in Pensacola, Florida, we are proud to offer a comprehensive range of orthodontic services tailored to each patient’s unique needs. Dr. Christopher Gomez and his team are dedicated to helping you achieve a straight, healthy smile through personalized care and advanced orthodontic treatments. We offer various orthodontic services, including traditional braces, self-ligating braces, and clear aligners, each with unique benefits to address different dental concerns.
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces are a tried-and-true method for correcting many dental issues, including crooked teeth, gaps, and bite misalignments. They gradually move teeth into the appropriate positions by applying constant pressure through metal brackets and wires.
Real Patients, Real Results
Benefits of Traditional Braces
- Comprehensive Correction: Traditional braces can effectively treat complex dental problems.
- Durability: Made of high-quality materials, traditional braces are robust and reliable.
- Cost-Effective: Often more affordable than other orthodontic options, making them accessible for many families.
Traditional braces are suitable for patients of all ages, especially those with severe alignment issues. They provide consistent, predictable results, making them popular for achieving a perfectly aligned smile.
Self-Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces are similar to traditional braces but use a specialized clip instead of elastic bands to hold the wire in place. This innovative design reduces friction and allows for more efficient tooth movement.
Definitely, the Medit scanner significantly improves the comfort level during the impression taking process. Here at Gomez Family Dentistry, our goal is to offer our patients the latest and most comfortable treatments, and the Medit Scanner is a shining example of that commitment. Old-fashioned impression methods can be uncomfortable, messy, and in some cases, even cause a gag reflex. The Medit Scanner gets rid of these problems by using cutting-edge technology to create an accurate 3D image of your teeth and gums. This method is not only more comfortable for you, but it also gives us a more precise impression, which is vital for effective treatment planning. The Medit Scanner is totally non-invasive, and the process is super quick, usually taking just a few minutes. The scanner just moves around your mouth, taking thousands of tiny pictures which are then put together to form a highly detailed 3D model. There’s no physical impression material involved, so there’s no unpleasant taste or discomfort. We’re really proud to offer the Medit Scanner technology to our patients in Pensacola, Gulf Breeze, and Pace. It’s just one of the many ways we’re striving to make your dental care experience as comfortable and efficient as possible. If you have any more questions about the Medit Scanner or any of our other services, please don’t hesitate to give us a call at (850) 429-4664. We’re always ready to help.
Benefits of Self-Ligating Braces
- Faster Treatment: Reduced friction can shorten overall treatment time.
- Less Discomfort: The absence of elastic bands minimizes pressure on the teeth, resulting in a more comfortable experience.
- Easier Maintenance: Self-ligating braces are easier to clean, reducing the risk of plaque buildup.
Self-ligating braces are an excellent choice for patients seeking faster and more comfortable orthodontic treatment. They allow them to achieve exceptional results in less time.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a modern and discreet alternative to traditional braces. They consist of custom-made, removable trays that gradually shift teeth into place.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
- Invisibility: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, offering a subtle way to straighten teeth.
- Convenience: Removable for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene, making them a practical choice.
- Comfort: Smooth plastic trays reduce irritation to gums and cheeks.
Clear aligners are ideal for adults and teens who prefer a discreet orthodontic treatment. They effectively treat mild to moderate alignment issues and provide a convenient and aesthetically pleasing solution.

The Orthodontic Difference
Regardless of the treatment you choose, orthodontics offers numerous benefits that extend beyond a beautiful smile. Properly aligned teeth can be cleaned more effectively, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Orthodontic treatment improves bite function, reducing jaw stress and preventing issues like TMJ disorders.
Furthermore, a well-aligned smile can boost self-esteem and confidence, positively impacting social interactions and overall quality of life.
