Invisalign

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. The aligners are custom-made for comfort and precision, making them a popular choice for patients who want effective results without the look of traditional braces.

Israel P.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Debra and her wonderful assistant Irene for the past three years while getting my braces done. They’ve been incredibly kind, patient, and professional every step of the way. Now that I’m finally done with treatment, I'm very happy with the results! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an orthodontist who really cares about both your teeth and your experience.
