Our Orthodontic Services for Arrington Patients

RuCo Orthodontics offers traditional and ceramic braces, clear aligners, early orthodontic evaluation for children, and adult treatment for Arrington families. Every new patient receives a free consultation that includes digital records, an orthodontic exam with Dr. Gala or Dr. Baston, and a full walkthrough of cost and insurance, so you leave with a clear plan built for your smile.

Here’s what we offer:

  • Traditional metal braces. Still one of the most effective ways to correct crooked teeth, spacing issues, and bite problems for kids, teens, and adults.
  • Ceramic braces. A more discreet option that blends with your natural tooth color while delivering the same predictable results.
  • Clear aligners. A removable, discreet alternative to braces that works well across many cases. Dr. Gala or Dr. Baston will tell you honestly whether aligners are the right fit.
  • Early orthodontic treatment. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first evaluation around age seven, when an orthodontist can spot developing issues early and plan simpler treatment later.
  • Teen orthodontics. Braces and aligners designed around school, sports, and busy teen schedules.
  • Adult orthodontics. Discreet options for professionals who want a confident smile without disrupting daily life.

Why Arrington Families Choose RuCo Orthodontics

Arrington families choose RuCo Orthodontics because the doctor who starts your treatment is the same doctor who finishes it. Dr. Anish Gala is board-certified by the American Board of Orthodontics, and together with Dr. Sasha Baston, the practice brings nearly 30 years of combined clinical experience to every personalized treatment plan.

Here’s what sets the practice apart for Arrington patients:

  • Same doctor, every visit. You won’t be passed between rotating providers. Dr. Gala and Dr. Baston personally handle every adjustment, every check-in, and every appointment along the way.
  • Honest recommendations. If aligners aren’t the right call for your case, we’ll tell you. If braces would deliver a better result, we’ll say so. No upsells, no surprises.
  • Modern digital records. Digital photos and X-rays mean accurate diagnostics, faster planning, and a more comfortable first visit than traditional impressions.
  • Transparent pricing. Orthodontic treatment shouldn’t require a benefits specialist to figure out. We’re in-network with most dental insurance plans and walk you through cost before treatment begins.
  • A welcoming practice. Hablamos español, so clear communication isn’t a barrier to great care.
  • Free, no-obligation consultations. Come in, meet the doctors, ask questions, and decide on your own timeline.
