Services
Braces
We offer modern metal, ceramic, and lingual braces with self-ligating technology for faster, more comfortable treatment. Our braces reduce adjustment frequency to every 8-10 weeks and average treatment duration of 16-24 months. This solution effectively corrects misalignment while maintaining oral hygiene ease for patients of all ages.
Invisalign
Invisalign provides discreet, removable aligners that gradually straighten teeth without traditional brackets. Our specialists successfully treat complex cases previously deemed ineligible for aligner therapy. The removable nature allows unrestricted eating and cleaning while achieving precise tooth movement through customized treatment planning.
Early Treatment
Early intervention addresses jaw development and tooth positioning during childhood growth phases. We use specialized appliances to correct jaw relationships and create space for permanent teeth. This proactive approach prevents future complications and establishes optimal conditions for permanent dentition alignment through guided growth modification.
Accelerated Treatment
Accelerated treatment shortens traditional orthodontic timelines using advanced tooth movement techniques. This option enhances comfort while reducing treatment duration for both braces and Invisalign patients. The technology enables faster results without compromising the quality of final tooth positioning and bite correction.
Flexible Payment Plans
We provide interest-free monthly payment options with minimal or zero down payments for qualified patients. Our team handles insurance pre-authorizations to eliminate upfront costs. This financial flexibility makes comprehensive orthodontic care accessible while maintaining transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

Couple of years ago I went to see Mark Rykiss who did not spend enough time at my initial consultation or discuss with me about the next steps. After a few months I mention to him and Barb that I am not happy with then results and he and his wife Barb told me to get profession help and see a therapist for that! Luckily I found another dentist (a great one!) on time. Please find another dentist if you can.

I had a disappointing experience at Rykiss Orthodontics and would not recommend the clinic to anyone. In the 1.5 years of going to Rykiss, I was never seen on time, usually 15 30 minutes late. The clinic uses a conveyor belt approach where patients all sit in large room where dental assistants do all orthodontics work and the actual orthodontist (Dr Jared Rykiss) only sees patients for a minute at a time. This is a very impersonal approach and I felt the orthodontist was not invested in my case, and the progress of the treatment wasnt thoroughly monitored. When I did get a chance to speak

I wont recommend this clinic to anyone. I completely agree with Jane Doe who posted a one start review earlier. I had my treatment with them for couple of years. My treatment went well at the beginning but then when I finished all my monthly payments doctor started to not pay attention to my options anymore, I felt like them tried to get rid of me because they were not making any money out of my treatment anymore. Both doctors started to tell me that little imperfection is fine. You would think all doctors especially orthodontists would have OCD, they want their patients teeth to be perfect

We've only had our first consultation appointment so far but they really made an effort to make us feel at ease. My son was very comfortable with everything after their thorough explanations of the process. He's actually looking forward to getting on with it now. We're fully expecting the rest of our service to be as smooth and painless as they can make it.
