Straight Smile Studio Smile at the Possibilities

Top Family Orthodontists in Mechanicsburg and Carlisle, PA

For more than 30 years, our mission has been to fill our community with healthy, confident smiles, and we’re excited for you to be a part of it! Whether you’re an adult looking to improve certain aspects of your smile and bite, or a parent wondering if your child needs orthodontic treatment, we’re here to help at Straight Smiles Studio.

Dr. Brian Lorei and Dr. Steve McCown use innovative technology and a highly individualized approach to provide orthodontic treatment for patients of all ages. We’re proud to offer complimentary consultations because we believe everyone should be informed about their orthodontic possibilities! Our focus is on creating a plan that works for your family’s schedule, financial situation, and comfort level.

Orthodontic Treatments

Every patient is unique, and our orthodontic treatments reflect that. As orthodontic specialists, Dr. Brian and Dr. Steve are experts in providing orthodontic treatment with braces, clear aligners (including Invisalign), and a variety of other techniques, catering not only to children and teens, but to adults as well.

Our consultations always involve a discussion about your preferences for treatment, as well as the doctors’ recommendations for maximizing efficiency and results. We like to say that orthodontics is a team sport, and we work with you on your journey.

Invisalign

Invisalign and other brands of clear aligners offer a discreet treatment option – plus, they’re removable for eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth, making maintenance and dental hygiene much simpler compared to braces! Our experts have experience using them in everything from simple touch-ups to complex surgical cases.

Braces

Modern braces are designed to move teeth more comfortably and quickly than ever before. We use Damon braces, which apply consistent but gentle pressure to align your teeth into their proper positions. Dr. Brian and Dr. Steve have treated thousands of patients, and all kinds of cases, using braces.

Retainers

Retainers are an important part of orthodontic treatment! In the same way that regular maintenance improves the lifespan of a vehicle, regular retainer wear maintains your amazing new smile. Our retainers are as customized as our treatment plans, and Dr. Brian and Dr. Steve will work with you to figure out the best retainer for you!

Early Treatment

All children should see an orthodontist by age 7. This may sound early, but at this age an orthodontic specialist can provide information about how and when to treat your child for any existing dental issues– and possibly prevent issues before they arise! Many children do not require treatment at this age, but some will benefit greatly from early intervention, addressing potential issues as they develop.
