Expanders and Spacers in Ankeny & Johnston, IA

Expanders are used to widen your upper jaw to create more space for your teeth and allow for a broader smile. Expanders are only used in certain types of cases and may be necessary to create more room for your teeth to shift and align into the correct position.

Spacers—also known as separators—are small, doughnut-shaped, rubber pieces that may be used to gently push adjacent teeth apart from each other to better facilitate orthodontic treatment. They are usually placed between your teeth to make room for orthodontic bands (rings around the teeth). At the time of band placement, Dr. Dubuc will remove the spacers before placing the bands.

Friendliest atmosphere and staff. Dr. Michael couldn’t be any better. All 3my children have a great looking smile from them, now, including myself with Invisalign. They are great at communicating and working with insurance.

TeRay and Dr. Michael were great! They were thorough and friendly. Dr. Michael answered all my questions and explained to my satisfaction the advantages and disadvantages of possible treatments. It seemed the emphasis was on helping me rather than selling to me. Excellent experience.
