Your Zachary Orthodontist
A native of Jackson, Mississippi, Dr. Adriane White received her Bachelor of Science in Biology from Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. Missing the comforts of home, she continued her education at Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi, a bedroom community outside of Jackson, where she received a Master’s Degree in Biology. It was during her time in school that she realized her true passion in life, giving everyone the smile of their dreams!
She fulfilled her purpose by receiving her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Mississippi Medical Center. In furtherance of her dreams of making blushing smiles a reality, she received her specialist certificate in Orthodontics from Howard University in Washington, D.C. Dr. White is board-certified as a diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, a designation held by only 1-in-3 orthododontists.
When not creating amazing smiles, Dr. White enjoys spending quality time with her family – her husband, David, and their daughters, Mya, Alexandria, and Brooklyn, whose smiles make her blush most of all.
Zachary Braces
Traditional braces are one of the most efficient orthodontic tools we have. They're made out of metal or ceramic brackets that are attached to the teeth, then connected by wires and tiny rubber bands or elastics. These brackets, wires, and bands work together to apply the gentle pressure that will gradually move the teeth into the positions we want them to be in if you have regular adjustments with our doctors.
Zachary braces are an excellent choice for correcting complex tooth issues. Because they can sometimes work faster at aligning teeth and closing gaps than other treatments might, overall treatment time may be slightly reduced. Braces don't need some of the more complex technology or expensive equipment that newer treatments can, making Zachary braces a cost-effective orthodontic option.
Zachary Invisalign
Invisalign is incredibly popular with both patients and orthodontists and is the top alternative to traditional braces. Instead of brackets and bands, Zachary Invisalign system uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten your teeth.
Invisalign aligners are made of a comfortable plastic material and customized to fit snugly over your teeth. In order to keep your teeth moving in the direction you want them to, you'll generally need to switch your invisible trays out every 1-2 weeks for the next in the series. The Invisalign system can only work if the recommended guidelines are followed exactly! Aligners should be worn 20-22 hours per day throughout treatment. If patients neglect to wear the aligners as directed, it can impede the results and also add time to the orthodontic process.
Invisalign is at its most efficient when correcting many of the most common orthodontic issues. For some complex cases, Invisalign may not be a good option. A free consultation with Smile Studio will allow us to determine your Invisalign eligibility.
