Every age, every smile

From a child's first evaluation to adult braces and aligners, all in one office.

Clear costs, flexible plans

A complimentary consultation with straightforward pricing and financing.

Orthodontic care for every age

For kids, we start with a simple evaluation around age 7, watching how the jaw and adult teeth are coming in and stepping in at the right moment, sometimes with early (Phase 1) treatment that makes later care simpler.

For teens and adults, we offer traditional metal braces, tooth-colored clear braces, and clear aligners, along with expanders, retainers, and airway-focused care. Every plan is tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and budget.

How to get started

It begins with a complimentary consultation. Dr. Chu examines the teeth and bite, takes images, and walks you through your options, timing, and cost in plain language, with no pressure and no obligation.

If treatment makes sense now, we'll map out the plan and flexible monthly financing. If it's smarter to wait, we'll simply keep an eye on things at regular visits and start when the timing is right.

There's no such thing as too old, or too early to check, for a great smile. We'll meet you exactly where you are.

Common Questions About Orthodontics

When should my child first see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first check-up by about age 7. Most kids won't start treatment then, but an early look lets Dr. Chu guide the jaw while it's still growing.

Do you treat adults too?

Absolutely. Teeth can be moved at any age, and we treat plenty of adults with braces, clear braces, and clear aligners that fit a grown-up lifestyle.

How much does orthodontic treatment cost?

It depends on the length and complexity of treatment. A complimentary consultation includes a clear breakdown of options, timing, and cost, plus flexible monthly financing.

Braces or clear aligners, which is better?

Both straighten teeth well. Braces handle the widest range of corrections and work around the clock; aligners are nearly invisible and removable but need consistent wear. Dr. Chu will give you an honest recommendation.
