Orthodontic Treatment
Our doctors have extensive training in TMJ and airway-focused orthodontic treatments. This may include expansion, functional appliances, brackets, and Invisalign treatment. Orthodontics is not only about straightening teeth. We focus on the foundation, the airway, the jaws, and the muscles. The goal is to optimize the patient’s structures to improve their condition.

I have been in so much pain for so long and the staff here have been so caring and understanding!!

“Dr. Ledermann and her team of professionals were the first people who took the time to explain to me what was physically happening to my jaw. They took my pain seriously and responded compassionately. My experience at Minnesota Craniofacial has been nothing short of life changing. I have had several years of pain free life now. I am able to eat the things I love without pain! I can open my mouth to sing again! I'm not sure where I would be without this amazing team of people. I can only describe them as genuinely caring, passionate and knowledgeable.”
