About HEADWATERS orthodontics

At Headwaters Orthodontics, we believe a confident smile can change how a child shows up in the world.

That’s why we focus just as much on how care feels as the results themselves.

Led by Dr. Vivian Snider, the only female, board-certified orthodontist in Bozeman, we work closely with kids, teens, and families to create personalized treatment plans that build confidence and fit naturally into busy lives.

We do it all using thoughtful planning and modern tools within a bright, welcoming space designed to feel like a breath of fresh air. 

Your Orthodontic Journey Starts Here

A Warm Welcome, From Day One

Your first visit is all about getting to know you, your goals, your concerns, and what matters most to your family.

You’ll be greeted by our friendly, high-energy team and invited into a bright, welcoming office, where conversations feel easy and questions are always encouraged.

Dr. Snider will take time to evaluate your smile, walk through what she’s seeing, and talk honestly about next steps, whether that means starting treatment now or simply keeping an eye on growth.

Advanced Technology, Used Thoughtfully

Technology plays a big role in how we deliver efficient, comfortable care.

We use fully digital workflows, 3D imaging, goop-free intraoral scanning, remote treatment monitoring with clear aligners, and 3D-printed custom appliances. Higher tech means fewer appointments, more personalized treatment, and a smoother experience overall.
