OUR MISSION
Care That Is Personal
At Ting Orthodontics, advanced treatment is only part of the experience. Our team is committed to treating every patient with respect, compassion, honesty, and personal attention. Your questions will always be answered with care. Your treatment plan will be designed around your individual needs. And throughout your journey, our goal is for you to feel like a welcomed member of the Ting Orthodontics family. We don't just look at teeth. We look at the whole picture.
Straight Teeth Is Not Our Only Goal
At Ting Orthodontics, creating straight teeth is only one part of what we do. Our approach focuses on the airway, jaw structure, facial balance, function, and long-term health of every patient.
While traditional orthodontic treatment may focus primarily on aligning the teeth, Dr. Ting evaluates the bigger picture. Using advanced imaging and technology, we develop a treatment plan that is unique to each patient.
A Structure, Airway & Function-Focused Approach
Your future consolation will include evaluating:
-
Jaw position, growth, and facial structure
-
Facial symmetry and balance
-
Nasal airway and breathing
-
Palatal width and skeletal development
-
Adenoids and tonsils
-
Tongue posture and habits such as tongue thrusting
-
Tongue restrictions and the possible need for myofunctional therapy
-
Long-term health, not simply how straight the teeth appear
-
Early intervention on children facial growth
-
Adenoid facial pattern prevention on young kids
Our goal is to understand why an orthodontic problem developed, rather than focusing only on the visible symptoms.
We Do Not Believe Extracting Healthy Teeth
We believe healthy teeth should be preserved whenever possible. Ting Orthodontics takes a non-extraction-first approach, focusing on proper jaw development, skeletal expansion, and creating adequate space before considering the removal of permanent teeth. Extractions are recommended only when Dr. Ting believes they are truly necessary for the patient's health and treatment outcome.
