Peppermint Dental & Orthodontics — Montgomery is an orthodontic practice located at 4411 San Mateo Blvd NE, Suite E-1, in the northeast Albuquerque neighborhood near the intersection of San Mateo Blvd and Montgomery Blvd, New Mexico. The practice provides orthodontic treatment for patients in the 87109 zip code and surrounding areas of northeast Albuquerque.

Orthodontics focuses on the diagnosis and correction of misaligned teeth and jaw relationships. Treatment options typically include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and clear aligner systems. The appropriate treatment type depends on the complexity of the case, the patient’s age, and personal preference. An orthodontic consultation generally includes a clinical examination, X-rays, and photographs to assess the bite and tooth positions before a treatment plan is developed.

Orthodontic care serves both children and adults. For younger patients, early evaluation — sometimes called Phase 1 orthodontics — may be recommended to address jaw development concerns before all permanent teeth have erupted. Adolescents and adults can pursue comprehensive treatment once the full permanent dentition is in place. Treatment length varies depending on the complexity of the case, typically ranging from twelve months to over two years.

Following active treatment, patients receive retainers to maintain the corrected tooth positions. Retainer compliance is an important part of the post-treatment phase, as teeth tend to shift without ongoing retention. Long-term retainer wear is a standard recommendation to protect the outcome of orthodontic treatment.

The San Mateo Blvd NE corridor connects to major roads including Montgomery Blvd and Menaul Blvd, providing access from a wide range of northeast Albuquerque neighborhoods as well as communities in the Journal Center and Midtown area. Parking is available at the suite complex.
