Formerly Toolson Orthodontics
Dr. Toolson, a beloved orthodontist for over 30 years, has left his practice in the hands of Dr. Phillips after he and his wife were granted the unexpected opportunity to serve as missionaries in Ecuador for several years. Thanks to Dr. Toolson, patients in Encinitas, CA, have come to expect an exceptional degree of orthodontic care from our office.
Dr. Phillips and our team are committed to continuing the same level of care, kindness, and outstanding results that patients have come to associate with this office. While the name on the door may have changed, the spirit of exceptional patient care that Dr. Toolson instilled remains. We look forward to welcoming you to Phillips Family Orthodontics in Encinitas, where your smile is always in good hands!
Our Services
Braces
We offer both traditional metal braces and modern ceramic braces to help align your teeth and improve your smile. Our braces are designed for efficiency and comfort, providing excellent results for patients of all ages.
Invisalign
For those seeking a more discreet option, our Invisalign clear aligners offer a virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth. These custom-made aligners are removable, making them a convenient choice for busy lifestyles.
Early Treatment
Early orthodontic treatment can prevent more serious issues down the line. We provide evaluations and interventions for young children to guide the proper growth and development of their teeth and jaws.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
We offer specialized treatments to help manage sleep apnea, improving your sleep quality and overall health. Our customized solutions can help alleviate symptoms and provide a better night’s rest.
TMD and Nightguards
If you suffer from temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) or grind your teeth at night, we provide effective treatments and custom nightguards to relieve pain and protect your teeth from damage.
Surgical Orthodontics
For more complex cases, we offer surgical orthodontic treatments that work in conjunction with braces or other appliances to correct jaw irregularities and improve both function and appearance.
Laser Gingivectomy and Frenectomy
Our minimally invasive laser treatments can improve gum health and correct issues with the frenulum, enhancing both oral health and aesthetics.
Retainers
After completing orthodontic treatment, retainers are essential to maintain your new smile. We offer a variety of retainer options to keep your teeth in their perfect position.
Palatal Expansion
To address issues with jaw alignment and bite, we provide palatal expansion treatments. This effective procedure widens the upper jaw, creating more space and improving overall dental function.
Who Benefits from Orthodontics?
- Overbite: When your upper teeth protrude over your lower teeth.
- Underbite: When your lower teeth extend further than your upper teeth.
- Overlapping Teeth: Teeth that overlap each other due to lack of space.
- Crowded Teeth: Insufficient space in the mouth causing teeth to crowd together.
- Crooked Teeth: Teeth that are misaligned or twisted.
- Rotated Teeth: Teeth that are turned or rotated out of their normal position.
- Impacted Teeth: Teeth that are partially or fully trapped in the jawbone and unable to emerge properly.
Who Shouldn’t Have Orthodontic Treatment?
To qualify for orthodontic treatment, you should not have any serious dental issues, such as extensive decay or gum disease. Applying braces or other orthodontic appliances to diseased teeth can exacerbate these conditions and negatively impact your oral health.
If you have cavities or gum disease, it’s essential to seek treatment from a dentist first. Once these conditions are managed, your dentist can advise you on whether orthodontic treatment is suitable for you. Proper dental health is a prerequisite to ensuring the best outcomes from orthodontic care.
