A Trusted Orthodontist in Yakima
Dr. Blake Eaton is passionate about creating healthy, confident smiles for patients of all ages across our Central Washington community. His journey started at Weber State University, where he completed his undergraduate studies. He went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Utah and received his Specialty Certificate in Orthodontics from the Dental College of Georgia at Augusta University.
But what really sets Dr. Eaton apart isn’t just where he studied—it’s how he cares. For him, the most rewarding part of orthodontics is witnessing the transformative, life-changing impact of a confident, healthy smile. He’s committed to giving his best to you and your family and to creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and respected.
Whether you’re nervous about treatment or just looking for an orthodontist who listens, you’re in good hands with Dr. Eaton.
Braces in Yakima
Braces in Yakima are a reliable solution for correcting complex tooth and jaw issues. In many cases, they can align teeth and close gaps more quickly than other treatment options, which may help shorten overall treatment time. Because traditional braces don’t rely on the advanced technology or specialized equipment that newer treatments might have, they’re also a more cost-effective option for many patients.
Metal braces remain one of the most effective tools in orthodontics. They consist of metal or ceramic brackets that are bonded to the teeth and connected by wires and small rubber bands (elastics) to guide teeth into alignment.
For patients looking for a more discreet option, we also offer LightForce Clear Braces. These braces use 3D-printed, clear brackets that are custom-designed for each individual tooth. This precise, personalized fit allows for more efficient tooth movement—and a more comfortable experience overall.
Clear Aligners in Yakima
Clear aligners are a top choice among patients and orthodontists in Yakima, offering a discreet and convenient alternative to traditional braces. Instead of brackets and bands, this system straightens your teeth with a series of clear, removable trays. Each aligner is made from smooth, comfortable plastic and custom-fit to your teeth for a snug, barely noticeable feel. To keep your treatment on track, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, as directed by Dr. Eaton.
Clear aligners only work when worn as prescribed! For the best results, aligners must be worn 20–22 hours per day throughout your treatment. Skipping wear time or forgetting to switch trays can delay progress and extend the overall treatment time. Clear aligners are highly effective for treating many common orthodontic issues. However, they may not be the best option for more complex cases. During your free consultation at Christopher Orthodontics-Yakima, Dr. Eaton will evaluate your smile and help determine if clear aligners fit you.
