Braces, Invisalign® and Clear Aligners in Glendale Heights
The right orthodontic appliance needs to suit both the planned correction and the person wearing it. These options differ in visibility, removability and day-to-day responsibilities. Your examination helps establish which ones are appropriate for your teeth and bite.
Metal Braces in Glendale Heights
Metal braces give your orthodontist control over tooth movement through brackets joined by a wire. Metal braces remain in place at meals, at school and overnight. You will need to protect the brackets from hard or sticky foods and clean around the appliance carefully.
Ceramic Braces in Glendale Heights
If you want braces to draw less attention, ceramic brackets blend more closely with natural tooth color. They are attached to your teeth and still use a wire; they are different from removable clear trays.
Gold Braces in Glendale Heights
Gold braces offer a gold-colored finish for patients who enjoy a more distinctive bracket style. Choosing the finish does not replace the need for a suitable treatment plan.
Invisalign® in Glendale Heights
We provide Invisalign®, a branded system of custom removable aligners. A sequence of trays moves teeth in planned stages, with visits to assess progress. Daily wear is typically 20–22 hours, following your orthodontist’s instructions.
Clear Aligners in Glendale Heights
Our Glendale Heights clinic also offers clear aligners from other systems. When comparing them with Invisalign®, ask about the specific brand, planned tooth movements, progress checks and arrangements for additional trays.

Start With a No-Cost Consultation

Use Your Orthodontic Benefits
If you have private dental insurance, we can check whether your policy includes orthodontics. Age restrictions and lifetime benefit limits may affect what it pays.

Orthodontic Care for Kids, Teens and Adults in Glendale Heights
Different Stages of Life, Different Treatment Options
Your age helps shape the assessment, but it does not determine the whole plan. Growing teeth, a teenager’s daily habits and an adult’s dental history each call for their own discussion.
Pediatric Orthodontics
An early visit lets us look at how permanent teeth are arriving and how the upper and lower teeth meet. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an orthodontic check by age 7. If treatment is not needed yet, monitoring can help determine when to reassess.
Teens Orthodontics
Teens often have practical questions about eating at school, playing sports or wearing an appliance in photos. Include them in the conversation about braces and aligners. We can explain the responsibilities involved, from brushing around brackets to storing removable trays safely, so both you and your teen understand the routine Before starting teen orthodontic treatment.
Adults Orthodontics
Perhaps you never had orthodontic care, or perhaps your teeth have moved since you stopped wearing a retainer. An adult assessment considers your current alignment together with gum health, existing restorations and any planned dental work. Bring those details to your visit so we can discuss realistic treatment options and any care needed from your dentist first.

Overbite
The top front teeth extend beyond the bottom front teeth.
Gapped Teeth
Too large spaces between the teeth, medically known as a diastema.
Open bite
Misalignment of the upper and lower teeth when the mouth is closed.

Crossbite
A condition where the upper teeth tilt towards the lower teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do braces cost at your Glendale Heights clinic?
The fee depends on the correction needed and the treatment proposed after an examination. At your no-cost consultation, ask for the total price, what is included and how insurance or monthly payments would apply. An advertised installment is not the total treatment cost.
Can I get Invisalign® at this location?
Yes. Our Glendale Heights clinic provides Invisalign® as well as other clear aligners. If you have a preference for Invisalign®, mention it when scheduling and discuss its suitability during your examination. We will identify the system included in your proposed plan.
Why might braces be recommended instead of clear aligners?
Your orthodontist considers the type of movement required, the bite correction and whether an appliance can be worn and cared for as directed. Braces and aligners are different ways of applying treatment. The recommendation should explain why a particular approach suits your case.
Does your office accept Medicaid for braces?
Yes, our Glendale Heights office accepts Illinois Medicaid and All Kids. Coverage depends on the patient’s eligibility, the program’s orthodontic requirements and any necessary authorization. The team can explain the evaluation process; acceptance of Medicaid is not a guarantee of treatment approval.
Do you accept Blue Cross Blue Shield or Delta Dental?
Both appear among the private insurers listed by our clinic. Benefits and network participation vary between policies, including plans from the same insurer. Contact us with your current member information so we can check the orthodontic provisions of your particular plan.
Should my kid lose all their baby teeth before seeing an orthodontist?
No. The recommended first check is by age seven, when both baby and permanent teeth are usually present. An assessment can identify developing concerns and help determine the timing of care. Many kids are monitored before any active treatment is recommended.
How often will I need appointments, and how long does treatment take?
Both depend on the appliance and the correction being planned. Your orthodontist will outline an estimated treatment period and review schedule after assessing your teeth. Tell us about school, work or travel commitments when discussing appointment arrangements.
Can you assess teeth that have shifted after earlier treatment?
Yes. Tell us when you had treatment, what has changed and whether you still use a retainer. We will examine your current tooth positions and bite before discussing whether further care is appropriate. Bring your old retainer if you have it.
Are early-morning or weekend appointments available?
Our office opens at 7 AM on Thursday and Friday and at 9 AM Monday through Wednesday. We are closed on Saturday and Sunday. Call (630) 376-6741 to check available appointment times within those hours.
What happens after braces or aligner treatment ends?
Retainers help preserve the tooth positions achieved during treatment. You will receive instructions for the type recommended and its wear schedule. Discuss retainer fees, replacement arrangements and follow-up care as part of your treatment agreement.
