Dr. Benjamin Martin has practiced orthodontics since 2011 and enjoys the personal interactions he has with his patients throughout their treatment. Dedicated to helping people achieve more confidence through beautiful smiles, he strives for perfection in each smile he creates.

Dr. Martin completed his bachelors degree in biology at Brigham Young University, his Doctor of Dental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and a Master of Oral Biology along with his orthodontic residency training at Baylor College of Dentistry. Dr. Martin is also certified by the American Board of Orthodontics an achievement reached by only one-third of orthodontists.

Dr. Martin is always looking for ways to stay involved in the community. In the past, he was involved in a number of volunteer programs. He enjoyed tutoring high school students to help them achieve their goals of going to college. He also took great pride in providing dental care in charity clinics in Honduras.

I feel privileged to work with so many amazing people on a daily basis, and honored that my patients place their trust in me. I hope that during treatment, their new smile brings improved confidence and self-esteem.

Dr. Benjamin Martin provides braces for you to align your teeth and perfect your bite. These braces contain metal brackets that are glued to the front surfaces of the tooth. These brackets are connected by wires that push and pull the teeth into the desired positions. If you are correcting your bite, rubber bands might be used to shift your upper and lower jaws into alignment.

This process takes some time to give you the final results you are looking for. You will come into our dental office multiple times to get your braces tightened, which will involve your dentist reapplying the constant pressure you need to transform your smile. You might feel a little sore or sensitive when your teeth are in the process of moving, but it will only last for a few days and will result in your perfect smile.

Clear braces are similar to traditional metal braces in terms of structure, but the primary difference is that the brackets, wires and bands are all tooth-colored and made from ceramic instead of metal. Clear braces are an affordable and efficient option, combining the best of both traditional braces and Invisalign aligners.
