Two orthodontic specialists straighten teeth and correct how they meet, and every plan starts with a digital scan.
5.0from 340+ Google reviewsHow it works
No treatment is decided before the scan, and no cost is a surprise after it.
An iTero scan instead of impression trays. You see the projected movement on screen before anything is decided.
Plenty of seven-year-olds are told to check back in two years. We say so when waiting is the right call.
Benefits are checked before treatment starts, and you get a detailed quote at your consultation.
The day the braces come off, retention starts. It is part of the plan, not an afterthought.
Our orthodontists
Both trained in orthodontics at Columbia University. A complicated bite gets a second look from the other.
Orthodontist
Braces, ceramic braces and aligners for teens and adults, and the Phase I evaluations that decide whether a child should start now or wait.
Orthodontist
Comprehensive orthodontic treatment for teens and adults: braces, Invisalign and the retainers that keep a finished smile in place.
Treatments
You do not need to know which one you want. The consultation is where we work that out together.
Traditional Braces
The most predictable option for complex bites, and still the fastest for many cases.

Ceramic Braces
The same mechanics as metal, in brackets that read almost invisibly in photographs.
Learn more
Invisalign & Clear Aligners
Removable clear trays planned from an iTero scan, best for mild to moderate cases.

Early Orthodontics (Phase I)
An evaluation around age seven to find the few children who benefit from early treatment.

Braces or aligners timed around growth, sports seasons and school photos.

For relapse after childhood braces, crowding, or a bite that has become uncomfortable.

Children and teens
Our orthodontists see children from around age seven and treat teens with braces or aligners, in the same office as your child’s pediatric dentist.
A mix of baby and adult teeth tells the orthodontist a great deal. Many children simply come back later; a few benefit from Phase I now.
Metal or ceramic braces, or aligners for teens, chosen with your teenager and timed around school and sports.
Cleanings carry on during braces, and the x-rays from your child’s pediatric check-ups are already in the same chart.

The doctors and team are extremely knowledgeable and take the time to explain everything clearly, making sure both parents and children feel comfortable and informed.

I can’t wait to have a brand new smile now that the braces are finally on! Update! Almost 2 years later my braces came off today.
My son got his braces on today, they did an amazing job. They took their time explaining everything. He felt comfortable, they made us laugh which I love.

Orthodontic FAQs
Around seven, when the first adult molars and incisors are through. Most children who come at that age are told to check back in a year or two, and that is the right answer more often than treatment is.
It depends entirely on what is being moved. You get an estimate at your consultation, and we tell you when the estimate changes rather than letting it drift.
The fitting does not. The ache starts the following day, lasts a few days, and returns briefly after each adjustment. Ordinary painkillers handle it.
Yes. Teeth move at any age. Adult treatment is usually slower because there is no growth to work with, and gums and bone are checked carefully first.
Aligners suit mild to moderate cases and disciplined wearers. Fixed braces do more, more predictably, and do not depend on anyone remembering to put them back in.
Call us straight away. Teeth begin to move within days, and replacing a retainer quickly is far cheaper than repeating treatment.
