Your Smile
Every step of the journey, guided with care
Your Experience
Thoughtful, personalized care at every step
Our greatest goal is to give you the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you've always wanted. We understand that choosing to receive orthodontic care is a big decision, and we respect your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel.
From your first phone call to the day we celebrate your beautiful new smile together — here's what to expect along the way.
Schedule Your Consultation
Getting started is easy. Book your complimentary consultation online or give us a call at (626) 821-9364. We'll find a time that works for your schedule — including Saturdays.
Your Initial Consultation
Your first visit is all about getting to know you. During this appointment, we will:
- Review your dental and medical history
- Complete a thorough oral examination
- Take digital X-rays, photos, and iTero® 3D scans
- Develop a personalized treatment plan
- Discuss all financial options, insurance benefits, and payment plans
Our team will be glad to answer any questions you may have and provide all of the information you need to determine which treatment is right for you.
Begin Your Treatment
You're one step closer to the smile you've always wanted! At your next appointment, Dr. Lee or Dr. Jung will place your orthodontic appliance. This visit typically takes about an hour, during which our team ensures you are completely comfortable.
We'll walk you through everything you need to know about caring for your new braces or aligners.
Regular Check-Ups
Visiting us every four to eight weeks is an important part of your treatment. We work with your schedule to make appointments as convenient as possible.
We understand that life happens — if you're running late or need to reschedule, just give us a call and we'll accommodate you.
Reveal Your New Smile
The day you've been waiting for! We'll remove your appliance, fit you with custom retainers (fabricated same-day with our SprintRay 3D printer), and celebrate your beautiful new smile together.
Your smile is yours forever — and we'll be here for ongoing retainer checks to make sure it stays perfect.
Important Reminder
Keep Seeing Your Dentist
It's very important to continue visiting your family dentist every six months during orthodontic treatment for cleanings and routine checkups.
If extra dental care is needed, we're happy to coordinate closely with your dentist to ensure you receive the very best comprehensive care.
Please don't hesitate to contact our practice with any questions — our friendly team is always here to help, and we look forward to working with you.
