The Schoettger
Difference
.
We are your complete smile experience!
SureSmile digital braces
Our doctors use digital scans to prescribe wires to be shaped exactly to their specifications.
In-house lab + all digital technology
We also build all of our jaw appliances and retainers in-house, so our doctors have more control over fit and timing of early intervention tools, mostly used for children.
How do you get started?
It's just four easy steps
.
Schedule Your Free Consult
The AAO recommends children visit an orthodontist at age 7 to possibly intercept conditions during growth, and adult treatment is very common.
Choose Your Smile Experience
We get started with a free digital scan, which takes five minutes or less and includes a smile simulation so you can see what is possible for your own smile!
Pick Your Payment Plan
We accept all insurance plans and are PPO for many of the main orthodontic insurance providers in Nebraska.
Family discounts apply as well as a discount for payment in full. You find out all your payment options at your first visit and all your questions will be answered.

What is
Early Interceptive Orthodontics?
Around age 7, children have a mix of baby (primary) and permanent teeth. Having your first free visit as permanent teeth take the place of baby teeth, and as the face and jaws are growing, gives our doctors a lot of information.
If a problem exists, or if one is developing, our doctors are able to advise you on whether treatment is recommended, when it should begin, what form treatment will take, and estimate its length.
Emma's Story
Schoettger Orthodontics gave me my best smile!
Starting life with a severe underbite, Dr. Schoettger helped align my jaw for the first phase. I was in grade school at the time and he answered my questions, helping me to understand exactly what was happening.
For the second phase, under the care of Dr. Jared Schoettger, my adult teeth were moved to bring my bite into perfect alignment.
Both doctors have a fun sense of humor that made me look forward to seeing them each visit. I'm grateful for my beautiful smile and thank everyone at Schoettger Orthodontics for making it happen!
Dr. Jared Schoettger
"Emma's treatment journey is a great example of early interceptive orthodontics!
Her first phase was important to remove functional crossbites and interferences. When she had all of her adult teeth in, we were able to align her teeth into her wonderful smile she has today."
