Find the perfect orthodontic treatment for you
McGrory Orthodontics offers the latest orthodontic treatments in Pearland and Bellaire, Texas. While metal braces are the most common orthodontic treatment method, you also have several other options, thanks to modern orthodontics. After your first free consultation, Dr. McGrory will help you decide which orthodontic treatment is right for you or your child based on your needs and smile goals.
Metal braces
Most of our patients choose metal braces to straighten their teeth. Metal braces are an orthodontic treatment option with a long history of success and are great at correcting many orthodontic issues from mild to severe.
While traditional metal braces are known for being awkward and obvious, with our modern metal braces in Pearland and Bellaire, you will benefit from smaller, less conspicuous and more comfortable braces than ever!
Clear braces
Clear braces, also called ceramic braces, tooth-colored braces, invisible braces or aesthetic braces, are one of our discreet orthodontic treatment options in Pearland and Bellaire.
Our clear braces are smaller than ever and made of nearly invisible tooth-colored polycrystalline ceramic material, paired with clear, white, or tooth-colored wires and elastic ties, and work the same way metal braces do.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® and Invisalign® Teen take a modern approach to orthodontic treatment by using a custom-made series of virtually invisible smooth plastic trays, called aligners, that you wear over your teeth.
Invisalign clear aligners are comfortable and removable, making them one of the most popular forms of invisible orthodontic treatment in Pearland and Bellaire!

Everyone should have the opportunity to receive quality orthodontic care. McGrory Orthodontics offers orthodontic treatment for children, teens and adults in Pearland, Bellaire, and the surrounding areas.

A free consultation can help you understand your options, even if you’re unsure if orthodontic treatment could benefit you! The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a kids’ orthodontic evaluation by age seven, but it’s never too late to get the smile you always wanted for yourself or your child.
Fixed vs. removable orthodontic treatments
It’s important to understand the difference between fixed and removable orthodontic appliances. Fixed appliances, like braces, are attached to your teeth and aren’t taken off until you complete your orthodontic treatment in Pearland or Bellaire.
Removable appliances, like Invisalign clear aligners, are worn about 20-22 hours a day but can be taken off easily. Aside from the obvious differences, Invisalign is best for treating mild to moderate orthodontic problems. Fixed appliances like metal and clear braces are generally needed for more serious and comprehensive treatment.
