Confident Smiles Start with the Right Treatment

Orthodontic issues don’t just affect how your smile looks—they can also impact your health, comfort, and confidence. At Harvest Grove Orthodontics, Dr. Mecca Abdullah helps teens and adults in Richmond correct bite problems and align their teeth using modern, personalized care.

Common concerns like crowding, gaps, or misaligned bites can affect speech, chewing, and hygiene. These issues may be genetic or caused by habits like thumb sucking, past dental trauma, or developmental conditions.

No matter what’s behind your smile challenges, Dr. Abdullah uses advanced techniques to address a wide range of concerns, including:

  • Spacing or gaps between teeth
  • Crowded or overlapping teeth
  • Overbite or underbite
  • Crossbite or open bite
  • Protruding front teeth
  • Impacted teeth

 

Braces, Aligners & More

Most of our patients at Harvest Grove Orthodontics choose modern braces or clear aligners to improve their smile. Whether you prefer the strength of metal or the subtle look of clear ceramic braces, we’ve got options that fit your needs and your lifestyle.

At Harvest Grove Orthodontics, we proudly offer Angel Aligners, a clear, comfortable aligner system designed to move your teeth with precision. These aligners are great for patients who want a flexible, low-profile option that doesn’t compromise on results.

After your first free consultation, we’ll talk through all your options and design a treatment plan that’s customized just for you.

 

Fixed vs. Removable Appliances

We want you to feel informed at every step of your smile journey. That starts with understanding the difference between fixed and removable appliances.

Fixed appliances, like braces, are attached to your teeth and stay in place throughout your treatment. Dr. Abdullah uses them for cases that need more detailed control or full bite correction.

Removable appliances—like clear aligners—can be taken out while eating, brushing, or for special occasions. These are best suited for mild to moderate cases and require consistent wear to stay on track.

Whatever option you choose, our team will guide you every step of the way.

Keep Your Smile for Life

Once your treatment is complete, retainers play a critical role in maintaining your results. At Harvest Grove Orthodontics, we provide custom retainers tailored to your smile.

Dr. Abdullah will explain how and when to wear your retainer to keep your teeth in place for the long term. Whether you need a fixed retainer or removable trays, we’ll make sure you’re set up for success beyond your final appointment.
