Services
We provide leading edge orthodontic care with traditional braces, clear braces, and Invisalign.
Dr. Unae K. Han works closely with your general dentist and encourages routine dental care as well as good oral hygiene at home.
During regular check-ups with your family dentist, you may have discussed the benefits of having healthy teeth and proper jaw alignment.

Complications that could arise from not seeking treatment include difficulty cleaning and maintaining crooked and crowded teeth, potentially resulting in tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss; wear of tooth surfaces; inefficient chewing function; excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth; chronic headaches and face or neck pain.

All orthodontists must be licensed to practice, but at this time only 1 in 3 orthodontists have continued on to become a board certified orthodontist.
The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) certification process signifies a unique achievement-a significant step beyond the two to three years of advanced education required for a dentist to become a specialist in orthodontics.
The process requires the orthodontist to demonstrate actual accomplishments in patient care with detailed case reports on the treatment provided for a broad range of patient problems.

Your medical and dental history will be reviewed and a clinical exam will be performed to determine if orthodontic treatment is needed and to assess the optimal time to initiate the treatment.
Some patients are placed on recall to allow for more dental development prior to starting their orthodontic treatment.
If the timing of the treatment is appropriate, an appointment will be scheduled for orthodontic records.
Complete diagnostic records typically include 3D digital scans of the teeth using the iTero Element intraoral scanner, photographs of the patient's face and teeth, and digital orthodontic x-rays.
