About Rad Orthodontics – Gaithersburg
WELCOME TO RAD ORTHODONTICS!
Rad Orthodontics is well known as the premier provider of orthodontic treatment to adults, teens, and children in the Washington D.C. area. Our unrivaled reputation for excellence, exceptional results, and a fun atmosphere has established Rad Orthodontics as a leader in contemporary orthodontics for more than a decade.
Dr. Mehdy Rad, Dr. David Rad, Dr. Carmine Petrarca, Dr. Shiva Mostowfi, and their highly trained team are dedicated to providing exceptional orthodontic care in the most comfortable setting. We use only the most proven precision techniques, systems, and materials because they work better, faster, and more comfortably than traditional braces. By combining the best techniques and materials available, we deliver the highest level of custom orthodontic care and ensure comfortable and efficient treatments.
Although there is no exact age for children to begin orthodontic treatment, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends a visit to the orthodontist around age seven. By seven, most boys and girls have a mix of baby teeth and adult teeth, which enables us to diagnose and correct tooth and jaw problems sooner and without surgery.
HOW ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT WORKS
Orthodontic appliances are made of a variety of materials, including metal, ceramic, and plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets that are bonded to your teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, orthodontic treatment gently moves teeth to their proper position.
DURATION OF TREATMENT
Shorter treatment times are a hallmark of Rad Orthodontics. We are proud that many of our patients achieve beautiful smiles faster than they expected. Treatment times vary depending on several factors, including age, treatment method, and how minor or severe your case is. A big factor in an efficient and successful treatment is you! The more involved and diligent you are, the more efficient and stable your treatment will be.
