At Harnick Orthodontics in Albuquerque, we offer a variety of different treatment options to fit your needs and your lifestyle. Below is a breakdown of the options available to you. Our doctors and our team will discuss with you during your initial consultation to determine the best fit for you.
Metal braces in Albuquerque are still the most widely used among our child and teen patients. Our modern brackets are much smaller and less noticeable than braces of the past. Our patients love choosing different color ligature ties!
Ceramic Braces in Albuquerque are the same size and shape as metal braces, except they have tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend with your teeth. These braces are less noticeable than traditional metal braces so they are often chosen by our adult patients who want to minimize the appearance of braces.
Invisalign consists of a series of custom-made, removable clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Our doctors are VIP Diamond Providers of Invisalign in Albuquerque which means he is in the top 1% of all providers of Invisalign in North America! They have treated a variety of conditions successfully using Invisalign. Because they are nearly invisible, this is a popular option among our teen and adult patients. No one will even know you’re straightening your teeth!
"Dear Patients,
I am writing to share an important update about our practice. After much thought and consideration, I have made the very difficult decision to consolidate our two locations into one main office at Montgomery Pkwy. This was not a decision I made lightly, as I know how important convenience and continuity are for our patients and families.
Please know that my patients remain my top priority, and I want to ensure that no one feels left without support during this transition. To help with this, I worked out an arrangement with the new owner of the Golf Course Rd. office that will allow me to continue seeing patients there for a period of time after the transition.
Appointments at the Golf Course office will be limited.
Preference will be given to patients who began treatment at the Golf Course location.
Over time, most patients will transition fully to our Montgomery Pkwy office.
This arrangement was made with you in mind—to provide continuity of care and make the transition as smooth as possible.
I want to thank you for trusting us with your orthodontic care. I am committed to seeing you through your treatment and look forward to continuing your journey at our Montgomery Pkwy location.
If you have any questions about scheduling or the transition, please do not hesitate to reach out to our office.
With gratitude,
Kari Harnick Graeber DDS, MS
Harnick Orthodontics"
