Denham Springs Orthodontics

Comprehensive Orthodontic Services in Denham Springs, LA

At Frugé Orthodontics, we provide a wide range of orthodontic solutions tailored to meet the needs of our patients in Denham Springs. Our goal is to help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile through customized treatment options, including:

Braces are a tried-and-true orthodontic solution designed to correct misalignments, overcrowding, and bite issues. Using metal brackets and wires, braces gradually shift teeth into their ideal positions, creating a straight and beautiful smile. Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and effective, allowing for quicker adjustments and more efficient results. At Frugé Orthodontics, we customize each braces treatment to fit the unique needs of our patients, ensuring optimal outcomes with regular adjustments and monitoring.
Invisalign is a popular, discreet orthodontic treatment option that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth gradually. Ideal for both teens and adults, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to achieve a beautiful smile without the noticeable appearance of traditional metal braces. The aligners are comfortable, easy to wear, and can be removed when eating or brushing, giving you the freedom to maintain your lifestyle while improving your smile. Our board-certified Denham Springs orthodontists offer personalized Invisalign treatment plans to ensure a smooth and efficient path to a straighter smile.
AcceleDent is an advanced orthodontic technology designed to accelerate the teeth-straightening process. This FDA-cleared device uses gentle vibrations, called micropulses, to enhance the movement of teeth and reduce treatment time by up to 50%. Patients use the AcceleDent device for just 20 minutes a day, making it a convenient addition to their routine. When combined with traditional braces or clear aligners like Invisalign, AcceleDent helps our patients at Fruge Orthodontics achieve their desired results faster while minimizing discomfort and enhancing overall treatment efficiency.
Clear braces offer the effectiveness of traditional braces with the added benefit of a more discreet appearance. Using transparent or tooth-colored ceramic brackets, clear braces blend in with your teeth, making them a great option for teens and adults who want a less noticeable treatment. While they function similarly to metal braces, clear braces provide a subtle look while delivering the same level of effectiveness in aligning teeth and correcting bite issues. Fruge Orthodontics is proud to offer clear braces as an option for those seeking a balance between aesthetics and results.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders can cause discomfort and pain in the jaw, affecting daily activities like chewing, speaking, and even sleeping. At Frugé Orthodontics, we offer specialized TMJ treatments aimed at relieving pain and improving jaw function. Our approach includes a thorough evaluation of your jaw alignment and bite, followed by personalized treatments such as bite guards, orthodontic adjustments, or other therapies designed to alleviate symptoms and promote long-term relief. Our goal is to restore your comfort and improve your quality of life through effective TMJ care.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that starting orthodontic treatment can come with many questions. At Frugé Orthodontics, we are committed to providing clear answers and guidance to help you feel confident and informed. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions by our patients:

The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the complexity of the case and the type of treatment chosen. On average, treatment with braces or clear aligners typically lasts between 12 to 24 months. During your consultation, we will provide an estimated timeline tailored to your specific needs.
Absolutely! Many adults in Denham Springs choose to improve their smiles with orthodontic treatment. We offer a variety of discreet options, such as clear braces and aligners, that cater to the needs of adults who want to enhance their smiles while maintaining a professional appearance.
Yes, we do. At Frugé Orthodontics, we believe that everyone should have access to high-quality orthodontic care, regardless of budget. We offer flexible payment plans and work with most insurance providers to ensure that your treatment is both affordable and manageable.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age seven. Early assessment allows us to identify potential issues and determine if early intervention is needed. However, orthodontic treatment can be effective at any age, so we welcome patients of all ages.
Regular check-ups are essential to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments. Most patients visit us every 6-8 weeks, depending on their specific treatment plan. We offer flexible scheduling to make these visits as convenient as possible.
For braces, it’s best to avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could damage the brackets and wires. For clear aligner patients, you’ll need to remove your aligners when eating, which allows you to enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions. We’ll provide detailed dietary guidelines to help you maintain good oral hygiene throughout your treatment.
If you have any additional questions or would like to learn more about our services, feel free to contact Frugé Orthodontics. We’re here to help make your orthodontic journey as smooth and comfortable as possible.

Braces and Invisalign

Braces are suitable for children, teens, and even adults. As your Denham Springs orthodontist, we offer Damon Smile Braces, which use small brackets to alleviate pressure from the teeth. Another option is Damon Clear Invisible Braces, which use clear, virtually invisible aligners to straighten teeth.

Invisalign is available for patients to be able to remove the aligners that allow unrestricted eating, brushing, and flossing access. Our orthodontists also use state-of-the-art technology for teeth correction. This includes the iTero Impressionless Scanner that scans teeth quickly and accurately, and AccleDent, which accelerates the efficiency of Invisalign. Enjoy a beautiful smile with the help of Invisalign.

Treatment for Orthodontic Conditions

For us, the physical appearance of your teeth is important, but so is your quality of life. Patients are treated for Temporomandibular Disorder or TMD, a condition that manifests from pain while chewing, swallowing, speaking, and yawning. Our orthodontists also inspect the tonsils and breathing patterns of patients to confirm a diagnosis of sleep apnea.

The visit was very smooth from start to finish. I love how attentive everyone was. Dr Jim is such a gem!!

Bethanye N Shanklin Apr 6, 2025

As a senior citizen, my teeth were all turning sideways. Even if no one else noticed, I did every time I brushed my teeth. It's been a little over a year and I've completed my treatment. I'm so pleased. It's never too late to correct your teeth. My teeth are straight, even, and look great; I may even smile for you. Mr. Jim and staff did an excellent job and took such good care of me. I'm Jennie and Fruge'...

Jennie Miller Apr 6, 2025

Dr. Jim Fruge did my braces 20 years ago and now he’s treating two of my kids and the third will start this summer. Even before starting treatment, he saw all 3 of my kids multiple times to track their progress to start their treatments at the right time and not rush us into putting braces on. He understands kids will break brackets or not be as diligent as they should with rubber bands, but he makes sure they understand...

Katie Ebey Apr 5, 2025

My teenage boys and I have been to both the Denham Springs and Baton Rouge locations for the duration of our treatment. I love the flexibility of the scheduling to accommodate both our work and school times. Dr. Jim is always encouraging and definitely knows what he’s doing. We all started our journey in 2023 and are expected to be finished this year.

Ngoc Kim Apr 4, 2025

Very friendly and prompt service. We did not have to wait at all during the appointment. Dr Jim was wonderful, patient, and caring. He did a great job of relieving my son's anxiety.

Teri Hall Mar 27, 2025

Dr. Jim is a competent, and a good guy. After 3 years, 7 filling and got all of my wisdom teeth taken out, my teeth are now healthy. I've attached before and after photos. Before getting orthodontic treatment, I was very insecure and anxious about my smile. Growing up, I was poor and couldn't get brace until I grew up and got a job. I'd do my best to smile without showing my teeth. Now, I'm comfortable smiling and showing...

Amanda Newman Mar 13, 2025

Quick, easy, and really nice workers. I have only ever gone to the location in Denham Springs, but I had to go to the location in Baton Rouge to get my braces removed since I had to push it back b/c I got sick. The staff were very nice and friendly. I’m unsure of the name of the orthodontic assistant who actually removed my braces but she was very nice and good at her job. I didn’t get poked or...
