Episode Notes

Whether you're 16 or 60, there's an orthodontic treatment for you--you no longer have to choose between metal braces and living with misaligned teeth. Dr. Sean Liu offers both clear aligners and traditional braces to help you correct your bite, improve your oral health, and boost your confidence—without compromising your lifestyle.

Once upon a time, braces were seen as a teenage rite of passage. But times have changed. According to Dr. Sean Liu, one in four orthodontic patients today is an adult.

With discreet options like Invisalign and SureSmile, you no longer have to worry about sporting a mouthful of metal while in business meetings or social gatherings.

These transparent, custom-fitted trays gradually shift your teeth into place without the need for brackets or wires. Plus, they’re removable, so you can eat, brush, and floss without any hassle.

Clear aligners are great for mild to moderate alignment issues, but they do require discipline—since they’re removable, patients must wear them for at least 22 hours a day for the best results.

While clear aligners are a fantastic option for many, traditional metal braces remain the more effective choice for younger patients and those with more severe alignment issues. Fixed in place, metal braces provide continuous correction, making them ideal for children and teenagers who may not always remember to wear their aligners.

Metal braces also work faster in some cases, particularly for patients with complex bite problems like underbites, overbites, and crossbites. Dr. Liu and his team carefully assess each patient’s needs to recommend the best solution for their unique smile.

Whether you opt for clear aligners or traditional braces, you’ll receive expert care designed to give you the best results.

And if you’re worried about the cost, the practice accepts major insurance plans, including PPO and Delta Dental, making high-quality orthodontic care more accessible.

Dr. Sean Liu is a board-certified orthodontist and professor who has been serving patients from Federal Way and nearby communities since 1974.
