This proximity is significant for residents who require regular visits for orthodontic treatment, as it reduces travel time and makes ongoing care more manageable.

The initial consultation helps determine which approach suits each patient's specific needs.
Knecht Orthodontics incorporates advanced technology into its practice, including iTero digital scanning, which replaces conventional impressions, and CBCT imaging for three-dimensional views of the teeth and jaws. The office also uses KLOwen custom digital brackets and operates an in-house 3D printer. Additionally, Dr. Knecht addresses airway orthodontics, considering how jaw development relates to breathing, which is a crucial aspect for some patients' overall health.
