Services
Braces
Traditional metal braces use brackets, archwires, and elastic bands to gradually align teeth. Our modern braces are sleeker and more comfortable than ever, offering customizable color options. Treatment addresses crowding, gaps, and bite issues for children, teens, and adults, improving both oral health and self-confidence through comprehensive alignment solutions.
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners provide a discreet, removable alternative to traditional braces. As a Top 1% Diamond+ Provider, we create customized treatment plans using 3D imaging technology. These nearly invisible aligners gradually shift teeth into position while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines, ideal for patients seeking aesthetic solutions.
Dental Monitoring
This innovative device enables remote tracking of orthodontic progress between appointments. Patients receive personalized guidance through a mobile app while reducing office visit frequency. The technology maintains treatment accuracy while offering convenience for busy schedules, ensuring optimal results with minimal disruption to daily life.
SureSmile
SureSmile technology combines 3D imaging with customized archwires for precise tooth movement. The system creates detailed treatment plans with fewer adjustments needed compared to traditional methods. This advanced approach reduces treatment time while maintaining exceptional accuracy, particularly effective for complex alignment cases requiring surgical precision.
i-CAT Imaging
Our i-CAT 3D imaging system provides detailed volumetric scans of dental structures. This technology enables accurate diagnosis and treatment planning with minimal radiation exposure. The high-resolution images help identify developmental issues in children and optimize implant placement for adults, ensuring comprehensive care based on precise anatomical data.

I visited Thabet Orthodontics for the first time last week and I had an wonderfully amazing experience! Johana at the front desk was extremely helpful in answering all my questions regarding insurance and what to expect when she helped me set up the appointment. It was an absolute pleasure meeting with Sandra and Dr. Thabet for my consultation. My situation is a bit complex and I was nervous, but Sandra and Dr. Thabet were extremely knowledgeable and confident they could do what needs to be done to set my teeth straight I have to get some other work done first but cant wait to start my treatment with them.
Thank you Johana, Sandra and Dr. Thabet! Hands down, my best experience with any orthodontist ever. I can honestly say I've never been excited for dental work but I'm so very excited to start my treatment with you. And a special thank you to Great Smiles Dental Care and Dr. Nguyen for referring me! I couldn't ask for a better team of professionals to trust my care with. Thank you!

Dr. Thabet got suggested to me by a friend who had braces and she said that going there is worth the time you have. When I went in for the first time, the staff members welcomed us with smiles on their face :. Going through the process of debating weather or not I need braces was little bit of a struggle for me, I didn't want braces, I found out that they had Invisalign and that made me so so happy.
The process with Invisalign was definitely worth my time and money. Dr. Thabet and his team were very very supportive and I was really happy with their time! Really sad I finished and won't go there as often but I'm really happy with my experience! Thank you Dr. Thabet and his wonderful team!

Not only is the office beautiful, but Dr. Thabet and the staff are all great! This is my third go 'round with orthodontia, but only minor corrections are needed. Dr. Thabet heard my concerns and came up with a short-term plan for treatment. Maria was a pleasure to work with as well. I'm hopeful and looking forward to the final result. Update 1/6/22: Finished up with my Invisalign and I'm satisfied with the results. I had a few extensions in my treatment plan, but it was worth it. I appreciate Dr. Thabet's attention to detail and desire to meet his patients needs. I highly recommend his services.
