Dr. Robert Allen and Dr. Evan Matthysse combine advanced technology with personalized care to deliver your perfect smile. Start your smile transformation today!
You deserve the confidence that comes with a beautiful, healthy smile. Orthodontic treatment at South Austin Dental Associates is the key to correcting misaligned teeth, improving your bite, and boosting your overall oral health. Whether for you or your child, our expert team is here to create a personalized treatment plan that fits your life and delivers lasting results.
For comprehensive and predictable results, traditional metal braces are the gold standard. Today’s braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever, making them a reliable and powerful tool for correcting even the most complex orthodontic issues for both kids and adults.
Achieve a perfectly straight smile without anyone knowing. Our Invisalign® clear aligners are a popular and effective choice for adults and teens who want a discreet treatment option. These removable, virtually invisible trays are custom-made to comfortably and gradually align your teeth.
Set your child up for a lifetime of healthy smiles. With early orthodontic treatment, we can identify and correct potential bite and jaw issues before they become more complex, often reducing the need for more extensive treatment later.
It’s never too late to invest in your smile. We frequently provide adult orthodontic treatment, offering both visible and invisible options to help you finally achieve the straight, confident smile you’ve always wanted.

Absolutely. Clear aligners (often referred to as “invisible braces”) are a highly effective and popular orthodontic treatment for adults. They can correct crowding, spacing, and other common alignment issues discreetly and comfortably.
While there’s no single “best” age, we recommend an initial orthodontic evaluation around age 7. This allows us to determine the ideal time to begin treatment, whether it’s immediate early orthodontic treatment for children or waiting for more permanent teeth to emerge.
While you’ll be able to enjoy most foods, there are some adjustments needed to protect your braces. You’ll want to avoid very hard foods (like nuts or hard candies), sticky foods (like caramel or taffy), and foods you have to bite into directly (like whole apples or corn on the cob). We’ll give you a complete guide so you know exactly what to expect!
Yes, wearing a retainer is a crucial part of your orthodontic treatment. Your teeth can naturally shift back to their original positions, and a retainer holds them in their new, correct alignment. We offer several types of retainers and will work with you to ensure your beautiful results last a lifetime.
