Did you know that you can start planning for the proper bone development in your child’s face and jaws even before they’re born? Dr. Porter, a board-certified naturopathic physician, can give you advice and recommendations for diet and your own oral health during pregnancy that will help ensure your child’s proper development. Good facial bone structure helps keep your child’s airway the right size so they can avoid related breathing and sleeping issues.
If your child does have a narrowed airway, Dr. Porter can use ALF (Advanced Lightweight Functionals). ALF is an orthodontic system that expands their airway and ensures continued proper jaw development and a correct bite.
Another service we provide that improves young children’s breathing is frenectomies performed with a gentle laser. A frenectomy allows a child with a tongue-tie or lip-tie to breastfeed normally. Breastfeeding is important because it supports normal development in a child’s facial structure. It makes more room for teeth, giving them a more aesthetic facial profile and improving their airway development. This can help prevent orthodontic problems and pediatric breathing issues. If you suspect your child has sleep-disordered breathing or an airway obstruction, take this quick assessment to see if we can help you find a solution.
For older children, we offer orthotropics, which treats abnormal growth patterns of the jaws. It also helps develop a healthy airway in your child. Dr. Porter is the only provider in the multistate area to practice orthotropics. You can feel confident in his ability to help your child if they’re suffering from abnormal jaw or facial development.
Teen and adult orthodontic patients who are looking for an alternative to traditional braces can choose from two fantastic alternatives:

Since having my treatment (for migraines), I have not had to take any medication, go to the ER, visit doctors, spend endless money on useless treatment, or miss family events or my children’s lives.
I have fibromyalgia and have suffered with headaches for years. Your staff saw that I needed help and discussed TruDenta with me. I am halfway through and the difference it has already made is life changing!
I absolutely LOVE this office! Great doctors, great staff, and great facility. I could not have asked for more. Dr. Porter introduced me to a therapy that cured my migraines! It was amazing! I have not had a headache or migraine in over 9 months. The doctors are well trained in all areas of dentistry, and they offer a variety of services that no other dentist in the area offers. I would highly recommend this office to anyone in search of quality dentistry!
My first experience was super amazing and comfortable. First biologic, natural dental health exam. Was very pleased, felt so much better after! I am definitely sticking with Dr. Porter and his team! Totally recommend Synergy Dental
Dr. Porter and his team are amazing! Skilled and compassionate. As someone with a fear of dentistry, they turned what could have been a traumatic experience into a positive and comforting experience.
As always I was given the best care, always looking out for my best interest. As well as a follow up call the next day to make sure I was doing well and satisfied with my service.
Dr. Porter and his staff are very professional & friendly. I’m always hesitant to go to the dentist office but they make the experience very comfortable and reassuring. I have not yet met any staff that doesn’t make you feel like family. They are very helpful and informative about your health and options.
I’m super impressed with the first visit and focus they put on how teeth are connected to the entire body and how it impacts us. Thorough tests that help address root issues and great, friendly service. Great experience and I’d highly recommend!
They are absolutely amazing. Everyone there is very nice and you can tell they really care about you. They make sure that your satisfied and give great advice on your dental health. I’m came in needing my teeth cleaned but they went beyond looking out for my health. I did the bacteria treatments and I came out with the best dental health I have had in years. I would highly recommend them.
We offer two great ways to straighten your teeth using short-term orthodontics with Six Month Smiles and Invisalign. With Six Month Smiles, their standard treatment uses tooth-colored brackets and wires to straighten the teeth that show when you smile. As the name implies, you’ll finish treatment in about six months. With Invisalign, you’ll enjoy discreet treatment using clear plastic teeth aligners that takes you about 12 to 18 months to complete.
Because we’re moving teeth with full-grown roots, there is often some discomfort with short-term orthodontic treatment. However, it will be minimal in the skilled hands of Dr. Porter. You might be a candidate for Invisalign. You’ll enjoy comfortable treatment courtesy of smooth, metal-free plastic teeth aligners. They fit snugly over your teeth without using any brackets or wires.
The short answer is, “It’s less than you think.” Because your treatment time is much quicker with short-term orthodontics as compared to traditional orthodontics, there are fewer office visits. This results in a lower overall treatment cost. When you come in for your consultation, we’ll cover your individual cost in full detail and answer any questions you have.
We can see you as soon as tomorrow!
