Metal and Ceramic-Clear Braces
Traditional metal braces provide precise and reliable control of tooth movement. Ceramic-clear braces offer a less visible alternative for older teens and adults who prefer a more discreet appearance.

Early treatment is a great way to potentially avoid extraction of teeth and jaw surgery as an adult.
Treatment with an expander, appliance, or retainer at this age is very simple and can have great life altering effects on a child’s smile and self-esteem.

Kriger Orthodontics
Kriger Orthodontics provides personalized braces and Invisalign® clear aligner treatment for children, teens, and adults at three convenient Southwest Florida offices.
Led by board-certified orthodontist Dr. Maryann Kriger, our practice combines specialized orthodontic expertise, advanced digital technology, and a warm, family-friendly experience. We welcome patients from Naples, Estero, Cape Coral, and surrounding Southwest Florida communities.
Orthodontic treatment is about more than making teeth look straight. A carefully designed treatment plan also considers how the upper and lower teeth fit together, jaw relationships, facial balance, growth, comfort, function, and long-term stability.
Dr. Kriger evaluates each patient individually and recommends treatment based on the condition of the teeth and bite, age, growth, treatment goals, and lifestyle. Her conservative approach aims to avoid unnecessary extractions when clinically appropriate while creating a smile that is both attractive and functional.
Her experience includes early orthodontic treatment, metal and ceramic-clear braces, Invisalign and other clear aligner treatment, complex bite correction, TMJ-related orthodontic concerns, and orthodontic preparation for orthognathic surgery when coordinated care is needed.
From your first consultation through your final retainer check, the Kriger Orthodontics team explains your options clearly and helps you understand what treatment is recommended, why it is recommended, and what to expect next.
We provide a full range of orthodontic treatment options. The right choice depends on your bite, the type of tooth movement required, your age, your treatment goals, and your ability to follow the recommended treatment routine.
Traditional metal braces provide precise and reliable control of tooth movement. Ceramic-clear braces offer a less visible alternative for older teens and adults who prefer a more discreet appearance.
Invisalign clear aligners are removable and designed to fit comfortably into everyday life. Dr. Kriger plans and supervises the movement of your teeth based on a complete orthodontic diagnosis, not just the appearance of your smile.
An early evaluation can identify concerns involving jaw growth, crowding, tooth eruption, oral habits, crossbites, and other developing bite problems. Early treatment is recommended only when beginning at the right time can provide a meaningful benefit.
Teenagers may be candidates for metal braces, ceramic-clear braces, or Invisalign clear aligners. Treatment is planned around dental development, bite correction, school, sports, and an active teenage lifestyle.

Orthodontists first complete dental school and then receive additional specialty residency training focused on moving teeth, guiding jaw development, diagnosing bite problems, and planning orthodontic treatment.
Dr. Maryann Kriger is board-certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. Her treatment planning considers tooth alignment, bite relationships, jaw growth, facial balance, and the long-term stability of the result.
Invisalign and braces are treatment tools. The diagnosis, treatment prescription, and ongoing clinical supervision provided by the orthodontist determine how those tools are used for each individual patient.
Kriger Orthodontics uses digital imaging and iTero 3D scanning to create detailed records of the teeth and bite. Digital scanning can replace traditional putty impressions for many orthodontic records and allows patients to see a three-dimensional model of their teeth.
These tools help Dr. Kriger evaluate treatment needs, explain available options, plan tooth movement, and monitor progress. Technology supports the treatment process, while every diagnosis and treatment decision remains personalized to the individual patient.
Kriger Orthodontics works with numerous dental insurance plans and offers individualized payment options to help make orthodontic care more manageable for families.
During your complimentary new-patient consultation, our team can review your proposed treatment, estimated fees, available insurance benefits, and payment choices before treatment begins. Insurance coverage and out-of-pocket costs vary by plan and by the treatment recommended.

When Mayra McCaffrey searched for an orthodontist for her boys, she wasn’t sure what to expect. “My Boys LOVE Dr. Kriger and her staff,” Mayra recalls. “The office is friendly, clean and high-tech and Dr. Kriger knows her stuff! We see our friends in the office and they are so happy to be here! The McCaffrey’s have since started their other child in treatment and mom has chosen to create her own beautiful smile with Invisalign treatment.
