Dr. Nader Ehsani is a wonderful orthodontist who I've gotten to know over the course of my Invisalign treatment. Every time I come to the office, the staff are friendly and attentive. I truly enjoy going in for my check-ins because of the lovely environment. I've also worked with Dr. Sabet, another orthodontist in the practice, and very much appreciated her attentiveness as well. I'm almost at the finish line with my Invisalign, and I'd highly recommend the team at Elite Orthodontics to anyone looking to fix their smile.

Highly recommend Elite Orthodontics! Their entire staff is incredibly welcoming, transparent, and knowledgeable. I reached out to them due to an orthodontic emergency not knowing where to go, and as a first time patient they were able to get me in same day and provided me with incredible results and such great care. Their office is very comfortable, clean, and they don't push any unnecessary costs onto you. I truly can't recommend them enough!

I was referred to Dr. Ehsani and the Elite Ortho group by my dentist as a surgical case (double jaw surgery with orthognathic treatment), and the whole team has been wonderful. During the initial consultation, Dr. Ehsani was patient in answering the many questions I had and walked me through everything to expect. When it came to surgery and my insurance wasn't approving any of the OMSs in the city, Dr. Ehsani stepped in to help find a solution. Double jaw surgery isn't for the faint of heart, but between the surgical team and Dr. Ehsani's team, I don't believe could've asked for a more compassionate care network. The ortho appts were smooth, with the same level of patience and care exhibited during the initial consult. When Dr. Ehsani wasn't in office and Dr. Freda stepped in, Dr. Freda's bedside manner was appreciated in that he shared the same patience and willingness to answer questions. Also appreciate that the whole team has a lightheartedness to them, not taking themselves too seriously, makes for a very comfortable medical environment. Overall, I'd highly recommend anyone looking for orthodontic care to come in and meet the team. Not that I want to go through braces again, but if I had to, I'd happily come back here.

Our experience with Elite Orthodontics has been exceptional. The front desk staff is always warm and helpful, and the rest of the crew kept us informed and feeling like family. Appointments were efficient and fit into our schedule nicely. My son never had any complaints about his braces throughout the process and as a very shy teen, he was always attended to in a way that kept him comfortable. 10/10 would recommend based on our experience!

Cannot THANK Elite orthodontists enough for saving the day! We needed some emergency orthodontic care this holiday weekend. Our orthodontist office was closed and could not be reached and Elite orthodontist was the only office in town that came through to provide emergency care for my son. His pallet expander bracket had become completely loose and was putting a lot of pressure on his other molar, causing him a lot of pain and discomfort. Elite orthodontic came through and took us in at the last minute and they were able to cement his bracket back on saving the day and our out-of-town trip for the next week. I cannot put into words how grateful we are to have found this level of care at elite orthodontist and I am so grateful for their one-on-one care and understanding and patient support. Amazing staff and Doctor support to ALL patients. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I have to say that this orthodontics is the best! My daughter encountered so many different dentists that wanted to slap braces on since the age of 10. This place, however, monitored her for an entire year up before deciding she was ready for braces and she was a sophomore in high school when she got them on. I'm so glad I was smart enough to know that she was not ready the first three times three different dentists said she needed braces.

Just got my braces off after jaw surgery and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My orthodontist coordinated everything seamlessly between the surgical team and ongoing treatment, which made the whole process way less stressful than it could have been. The care and attention to detail throughout was excellent, and I love how my bite turned out. Highly recommend if you’re considering treatment or want to improve your smile! 😁

Our dentist at All Smiles recommended that we bring our daughter to Elite Orthodontics, and we had a great experience from start to finish. Everything was explained clearly, which made the process easy to understand. I also appreciated that I was able to sit nearby during her appointments while they adjusted her braces. The staff was always friendly and did a great job making my daughter feel comfortable. They were also very organized and sent appointment reminders, which was really helpful. My daughter actually enjoyed going to her appointments, and now that her braces are off, she is so happy with her smile and the results. We are very thankful for the care she received and would definitely recommend Elite Orthodontics to other families! 😊

Frequently Asked Questions

Starting orthodontic treatment often comes with questions about timing, comfort, and what to expect. Below are answers to topics our patients commonly ask about during consultations.

Every treatment plan begins with a detailed evaluation of your teeth, bite, facial structure, and long-term goals. Your orthodontist then recommends the option that best balances function, comfort, and aesthetics.

Most patients are seen every several weeks. Visit frequency depends on the type of treatment and stage of care, and schedules are planned efficiently.

temporary pressure is normal, especially early on, but it typically resolves quickly.

After braces or aligners, retainers are provided and monitored to help maintain alignment and protect your results long term.

Treatment length varies based on individual needs and complexity. Most plans range from several months to a few years, with progress monitored regularly.
