Comfort and Technology are Top Priorities for King Orthodontics
King Orthodontics , a family business , has long roots in the Pittsburgh area . North Hills native Dr . Earle King opened his practice on Perry Highway in Wexford 40 years ago . His son , Dr . Bryan King , joined the practice in 2000 and together they have been able to expand the practice to include locations in downtown Pittsburgh and now Bridgeville . Both board-certified orthodontists earned
Dr . Earle King and Dr . Bryan King their DMD from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine .
Their goal of making patient comfort and technology top priorities shows from the minute you enter the office . The patient waiting areas are warm and inviting . The newest location in Bridgeville provides custom banquette seating in the waiting area and flat-screen TVs in the private treatment rooms . “ We know the lives of our patients and parents are very busy , and that is why we strive to provide an atmosphere that is calm , friendly , and always positive ,” says Dr . Earle King .
Specializing in orthodontic treatment for adults and children , King Orthodontics provides patients with a wide variety of options to choose from , including traditional braces , Invisalign and Invisalign Teen . Their continued commitment to the latest technology shows with their use of the Itero scanner .

What is Invisalign ?
Invisalign is a series of clear “ aligners ” that fit comfortably over your teeth so there is no need for brackets or wires . They are custom made and completely removable so they do not interfere with your lifestyle .
How does Invisalign work ?
Each set of aligners is worn for one to two weeks , with removal only to eat , drink , brush , and floss . Your teeth will move gradually each week . You will only need to visit the office every eight to 10 weeks ! The average treatment time is six to 18 months , and the average number of aligners is between 18 and 30 .
What is Invisalign Teen ?
Invisalign Teen works the same as standard Invisalign but offers some additional features that make it very appealing to teen patients , and their parents ! It allows for the growth of teens ’ permanent teeth ( second molars , plus first and second bicuspids ). So , as a parent , you can be assured that new , growing teeth won ’ t deter your teen ’ s orthodontic treatment in any way . Moreover , teens can start treatment even if all of his or her permanent teeth aren ’ t in . Also , you don ’ t have to worry if your teen loses an aligner . Invisalign will provide free replacements for up to six individual aligners lost ... just in case . You can learn more at www . invisalign . com / teen .
King Orthodontics truly is “ the secret behind Pittsburgh ’ s most confident smiles .” In addition to Invisalign and Invisalign Teen , the doctors provide treatment for TMJ disorders , fit athletes with the new Under Armour mouth guards , and use state-of-the-art metal and clear braces .
