Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable, and highly effective orthodontic solution for both teens and adults seeking to straighten teeth and improve bite alignment without traditional metal braces. Using advanced 3D imaging technology and custom-fabricated aligners, Invisalign treatment gradually shifts teeth into optimal position while allowing patients to eat, brush, and floss with ease. Invisalign provides a confidence-boosting option that fits active school and social schedules. Smile Express, for adults, appreciate the nearly invisible appearance and flexibility that complements professional lifestyles. With predictable results and fewer in-office visits, Invisalign aligners and Smile Express deliver a modern, convenient path to a healthier, more confident smile.

It went from 5 stars, being bought by Kim Chen. Amazing team, a new amazing owner. I trust in everyone and with some little changes, I know they are for the best outcome. We drive over 90 min to each appt because of the care. Dr. Chen see’s each and every one of her patients at time of visit. Very clear and concise of what the game plan is.
My son is just finishing up phase 1. Started with expanders and then braces. Now we are onto retainers and the waiting game until baby teeth fall out and we see where we are. We have been super happy with KC. Most of his care was under Dr O’Grady but Dr Chen has been been amazing as well! The office has always been friendly! They have a fun reward program for the kids to encourage proper brushing, being on time and not breaking their braces off.
Very efficient and knowledgeable, also great staff in general
