Orthodontist Serving Sycaway
If you live in Sycaway, you already know Troy is just a short drive away, whether you're heading down for errands or work. That same short trip brings you to our orthodontic office, where Dr. Greg Efros and our team treat patients from all over the Troy area, including your neighborhood.
We work with kids, teens, and adults who want straighter teeth and a bite that actually functions well. Some patients come to us on a family member's recommendation. Others find us while searching for an orthodontist close to home. However you got here, we're glad to have you.
Braces for Every Stage of Life
Braces remain one of the most reliable ways to move teeth into better alignment. They work well for complex bites and for patients who want a treatment option that doesn't require daily discipline to remove and replace trays. We offer a few different types, so you and Dr. Efros can pick what fits your life and your smile goals.
Our braces page covers the different bracket types and who each one suits best.
Traditional Metal Braces
Metal braces are the classic option, and they've come a long way over the years. They're strong, dependable, and often the most straightforward choice for correcting significant bite or spacing issues. Many teens choose them, and plenty of adults do too.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces work the same way as metal ones, but the brackets are tooth-colored, so they blend in more with your smile. If you want something less noticeable but still want the structure and control that traditional braces provide, this is worth discussing at your visit.
Clear Aligners
For patients who prefer a removable option, clear aligners are a popular alternative to brackets and wires. They're a good fit for people who want to eat, brush, and floss without working around hardware. Dr. Efros can help you figure out if your case is a good match.
Invisalign for a More Flexible Path to a Straighter Smile
Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually shift your teeth. Because they're removable, you can take them out to eat, drink, and brush normally, which many adults and older teens appreciate. There's no metal involved, so the aligners are far less noticeable in everyday conversations, meetings, or photos.
Not every case is right for Invisalign, and that's okay. Part of your first visit is figuring out whether it's the right tool for your specific bite and goals, or whether braces would serve you better.

Treatment for Kids, Teens, and Adults
Orthodontic needs look different depending on your age, and treatment should reflect that. For younger kids, early evaluation can catch developing bite issues while there's still room to guide growth. For teens, we work around school schedules and the realities of braces or aligners during a busy stage of life.
Adults make up a steady share of our patients too. Maybe you skipped treatment when you were younger, or your teeth have shifted over time. Either way, it's never too late to ask Dr. Efros what your options look like now.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first appointment is mostly about listening and looking. Dr. Efros will examine your teeth and bite, talk with you about what's bothering you or what you'd like to change, and take a look at the bigger picture of your oral health.
From there, we'll walk you through what treatment options make sense for your situation, whether that's braces, Invisalign, or something else entirely. You'll leave with a clearer idea of next steps, without pressure to decide anything on the spot.
