Braces and Orthodontic Care
Braces and orthodontic care is about more than just cosmetics and a straight smile. Improper alignment can cause jaw pain and chewing dysfunction. Overcrowded teeth can be more susceptible to decay and the surrounding gums are more likely to develop periodontal disease.
How Orthodontic Treatment Works
Gone are the days of bulky braces. Choose from thin, clear brackets or skip them altogether and straighten your smile with invisible aligners. Both options provide a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, slowly moving teeth to the proper position.
Because, everyone ought to have a mouth that works for them, not against them.

Andrew Cummings, DDS
Owner/General Dentist
Dr. Andrew Cummings was born in Denver, but raised on the gulf coast of Florida. He first became interested in dentistry at a young age after getting braces in middle school. As his smile transformed, he learned firsthand the impact a great smile can provide. He strives to provide a similar transformative experience for his patients and ensure each patient leaves his office happier than when they came in.
Dr. Cummings attended the University of Central Florida where he received degrees in both Finance and Microbiology. While attending UCF, Dr. Cummings was an active member of the Alpha Tau Omega leadership fraternity. Between his undergraduate and dental school careers, Dr. Cummings was involved with an organ donation company where he worked alongside researchers, engineers, and doctors towards the advancement of medicine. His experience in the industry afforded him the opportunity to spend the bulk of his time traveling all over the country and to Europe. Dr. Cummings then attended dental school at the University of the Pacific in beautiful San Francisco. Dr. Cummings graduated from dental school receiving awards for leadership and aesthetic dentistry. During dental school, he served as both President and Vice President of his school’s American Student Dental Association leading his team to receive national award winning recognition.
Outside of the office, Dr. Cummings enjoys golf, health and fitness, riding his motorcycle, cooking, and traveling.
