Dr. Timmerman recommends an orthodontic evaluation for all patients over the age of 7. However, the majority of our orthodontic patients are adults who didn’t have access to braces growing up. There is no age restriction on orthodontics, and a large number of the people we treat are adults who simply want a more beautiful, confident smile.
Adults who are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth or have experienced complications due to tooth crowding are ideal candidates for our services.

Adults and teens can benefit from our in-house Invisalign orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is a comfortable way to almost invisibly straighten your teeth. It uses clear alignment trays that are worn over your natural teeth to shift them.
Want straight teeth, but don’t want to wait TWO YEARS to get them? Six Month Smiles uses cosmetic braces consisting of tooth-colored brackets and wires that only move the teeth that show when you smile. The average treatment time is about 6 months, the common interval between dental cleanings
What if you could straighten your teeth without braces? The Inman Aligner is a modern dental retainer-like device that can make your teeth look straight in just 6 to 18 weeks. Inman Aligners are ideal for correcting the location and appearance of your front teeth. They provide fast and effective treatment with long-term results. Most patients complete their treatment between 2 to 5 months, because of how effective the alignment process is. It’s also extremely affordable!
Invisalign can transform how your smile looks by giving you beautiful, straight teeth. This has numerous benefits beyond cosmetic improvements, though. Crooked teeth increase the risk that bacterial plaque from food debris becomes trapped between the crevices of teeth. This plaque, if it hardens into tartar, can cause cavities and lead to the development of gingivitis, the first stage of gum disease.
Your new smile is only a few clicks away.
Born and raised in Kirkland, Dr. Timmerman believes that a true dentist is also an artist, and he even displays works of art in our dental office (including a sculpture he made with his own hands) to demonstrate his aesthetic-minded eye.
