Why Dr. Connelly

Why Dr. Connelly

Ever since his graduation from Columbia University, Dr. Connelly has continued his quest for gentle orthodontic treatment for his patients that takes into consideration. First — A beautiful broad smile, secondly — Facial Balance and third — Healthy TMJoints.

During the 1980s and 1990s, Dr. Connelly completed many hours of continuing education, often times with his staff in attendance as well, to determine what philosophy of treatment could achieve these goals without removing any teeth. And he is still doing so today. Everything we do centers around making both your teeth and face look better. We pride ourselves in treating without extractions! Using our new technologies, the extraction of teeth rarely occurs.

Dr. Connelly initially embraced the Australian light wire technique with extremely satisfying results. Then he added Functional Jaw Orthopedics (or bone development techniques) and finally the Damon System several years ago. We feel that by 2010 this will be THE treatment method of choice throughout the world — IT is moving like wildfire!

Because of his extensive learning process, Dr. Connelly is uniquely capable of deciphering truly complex orthodontic/orthopedic problems and devising available solution that can be achieved in a relatively short time. In fact, other orthodontists seek out his opinion regarding difficult treatments on a regular basis.
