Braces, Mouthguards, and Orthodontic Care for Oak Grove Families

With the Oak Grove Sports Complex and the Lexington County Tennis Complex right there, we see a lot of active kids — and active kids in braces need one thing their teammates do not.

An orthodontic mouthguard fits over brackets and protects both the appliance and the lips. We fit them here, and a bracket knocked loose at practice is the kind of thing we keep daily time open for rather than making you wait a week.

Beyond the sports side, Dr. Christine Esposito provides the full range of orthodontic care for Oak Grove families — early treatment for younger children, braces and clear aligners for teens, and retainers afterward — a short drive up Augusta Road to Sunset Boulevard.

Special needs and tongue-tie care for Oak Grove families

We also plan visits around children with autism, sensory sensitivities or developmental delays, and we evaluate and treat tongue and lip ties (frenectomy) for babies and kids. Ask about either when you call our Lexington office, and we will set up the visit around your child.

Rooted in the Oak Grove Community

Schools nearby — Many families we see come from Oak Grove Elementary (Lexington County School District One), with older students heading to nearby Lexington One middle and high schools. We keep visits quick so you can get back to pickup and practice.

Parks & play — The Oak Grove Sports Complex and the Lexington County Tennis Complex across the street keep local kids busy year-round, and Saluda Shoals Park on the Saluda River is a favorite weekend spot with trails and a splash pad.

Neighborhoods we welcome — Families from established streets and newer subdivisions alike — from brick-ranch pockets to communities like the Cottages at Roofs Pond — trust us as their children’s dentist Oak Grove families recommend to neighbors.
