A Pursuit of Excellence at Baker Orthodontics

At Baker Orthodontics we make every effort to provide you with the best orthodontic treatment. For us that means achieving consistently great results. There are many things that help Dr. Baker and team do that. Some of them are:

1) We use state-of-the-art techniques and materials, including self-ligating In-Ovation & reg braces in metal and clear ceramic, invisible lingual braces, and Invisalign treatments.

2) Dr. Baker uses indirect bonding for placement of braces which increases accuracy and patient comfort and shortens appointment times.

3) We offer occasional early (7am) or late (6pm) hours, and Dr. Baker is available for after-hour emergency visits if needed.

4) Baker Orthodontics is a small practice with one doctor. We focus on providing very personalized care for each patient.

Please give us a call if you have any questions, or if you would like to schedule your consultation.

Thank you,

Baker Orthodontics

How are you spending your San Diego, CA summer?

Summer is finally here in Escondido and San Diego, CA, and the team at Baker Orthodontics thought we’d ask: What’s your favorite part about summer? Is it the warm weather? The free time you get? Spending quality time with friends and family? Grilling barbecue in the backyard?

Dr. Baker and team would like to know what makes your summer truly special. Let us know by posting on our Facebook page or by giving us a call!

Ask Dr. Baker: Who benefits from braces?

Braces aren’t just for pre-adolescents and teenagers anymore! Dr. Baker will tell you that anyone, at any age, can benefit from orthodontic treatment, whether it’s correcting a problem not treated in your younger years, or catching a problem early.

To ensure the best overall treatment, the American Association of Orthodontists, or AAO, recommends that children receive an orthodontic consultation as early as age seven. If a problem is evident, taking action early can spare a lot of treatment and expense down the road.

If you never received orthodontic treatment when you were young, don’t worry! You’re never too old for a beautiful smile. Give us a call to set up an appointment for a free consultation and find out how adult orthodontics will transform your smile, as well as your life!

Ask Dr. Baker: How do I know if Invisalign® is right for me?

At Baker Orthodontics, there are several steps that we take to determine if you are the right candidate for Invisalign treatment with Dr. Baker. First, we take an impression of your teeth as they are now and digitize it. Using special software, we look at the current positioning of your teeth and compare it to the way your teeth should look.

Next, we use special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take from the beginning of your treatment to the end. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth. Throughout the course of treatment, you will be required to wear these clear, removable aligners one at a time; each one moving your teeth closer and closer to their final, perfectly aligned position. The best thing about it all? Nobody around you will even know you are wearing braces!

Dr. Baker is a certified Invisalign provider in Escondido, CA. If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment, please give us a call.
