Dentistry as a profession runs in the Silva family. Not only was my father a dentist, but seven of my eleven siblings are also dentists. As an orthodontist in Lakewood, CO, I love what I do and enjoy providing the very best service to my patients. I feel blessed to be able to change teeth positions into the most beautiful smiles. I have been in education as a faculty member for the past 33 years of my life, I love to share what I do, what I know and also learn what I don't know.
I am an eternal student! I have found in dentistry a very rewarding profession, our patients are the best of our daily work, I love to interact with them, get to know them and share many things. Every day is a different opportunity to meet new patients and keep our office very friendly and welcoming. We are grateful for the opportunity our patients give us and seeing their confidence grow is one of our treasures.

Stainless steel (metal) are the most popular and traditional.
Metal braces straighten your teeth using and brackets and archwires.
Today the brackets are much smaller than they use to be and allow customization with different colors elastics.
Self-ligating braces are similar to traditional braces, however these type of braces do not require the use of elastics.
They are the same size as metal braces and use a special clip for the archwire to guide the teeth into line.
This means fewer adjustment visits, no elastics and less pressure on your teeth.
