When teeth are out of place, orthodontic treatment, or braces, is often sought as an optimal form of correction. Typically, we see metal braces on the smiles of teenagers or pre-teens. Thanks to the development of clear braces options, many adults are also seeking care to straighten their smiles.

Dr. Isharani and the rest of the team want to provide the very best care to families in the Greensboro, NC area. Our focus on pediatrics extends beyond most general dental offices. The attention that we give to early orthodontic intervention is just one example of our commitment to excellence.
