Specialist Training
What Makes an Orthodontist
An orthodontist is a dentist who has gone on to complete an accredited orthodontic residency. The American Association of Orthodontists puts that at two to three years of education beyond dental school, and only dentists who finish one may use the title.
The training covers a single subject: how teeth move, how a bite comes together, and how treatment changes the jaw bones, facial bones and soft tissue around them. That is why an orthodontist plans for how you bite, chew and speak, not only for how the teeth look.
Dr. Sohrabi is board certified and is the only orthodontist here. Every orthodontic case in this practice is planned and delivered by him.
No Surprises
A Written Estimate Before Treatment
You will know which option suits your teeth, roughly how long treatment will take, and what it costs before anything starts.
Your Options
Braces or Invisalign?
Braces are fixed to the teeth and work continuously, so nothing depends on remembering to wear them. They handle complex movements that aligners can’t, and they’re usually the more economical option.
Best for: complex cases, younger patients, anyone who’d rather not manage removable trays.
Invisalign uses clear removable trays, changed every week or two. Barely visible, and you take them out to eat and brush. They need wearing 20 to 22 hours a day to work.
Best for: adults and older teens, milder to moderate cases, anyone who wants treatment to be discreet.
Dr. Sohrabi will tell you which is realistic for your teeth. Not every case suits aligners, and we’d rather say so at the consultation than partway through treatment.
What treatment involves
Treatment starts with an assessment and records, so Dr. Sohrabi can see how your teeth meet rather than only how they look. You are then given the options, roughly how long each would take, and a written estimate before anything begins. Once treatment starts you come in for regular adjustments, and the appliance is changed in stages as the teeth move. The American Association of Orthodontists is blunt about the timescale: orthodontic treatment is not a quick fix, and how long it takes depends on the case.
After treatment: retainers
Teeth can move again once an appliance comes off. The American Association of Orthodontists calls this orthodontic relapse, and it happens because teeth naturally tend to shift over time, so retention is part of treatment rather than an optional extra.
Early on a retainer is usually worn most of the day and night, taken out only to eat, brush and floss, because the bone and tissue around the teeth need time to settle into their new positions. Many patients later move to wearing one at night only, depending on how stable the teeth are and what their orthodontist advises. Retainers after Invisalign goes through the types and the wear time in more detail.
What Orthodontics Corrects
What We Treat
Orthodontic treatment is about how the teeth meet as much as how they look. These are the problems we most often correct:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite, underbite, crossbite
- Teeth that stick out and are vulnerable to damage
- Jaw pain or difficulty chewing caused by a bad bite
- Teeth that shifted after previous treatment

Cost & Payment
What Do Braces Cost?
It depends on how complex the case is and how long treatment takes, which is why we won’t quote a figure before seeing your teeth. You’ll get a written estimate at your consultation.
What affects the price:
- How much movement is needed and how long treatment will take
- Braces or Invisalign
- Whether any preparatory work is needed first
- Whether retainers are included
Will Insurance Cover It?
Many dental plans include orthodontic coverage, often with a lifetime maximum rather than an annual one. We’ll check yours and tell you where you stand before you commit.
Please note: We do not accept DSHS, Apple Care, Apple Health, or Provider One dental insurance plans.
Paying the Balance
We offer financing through CareCredit.

Frequently Asked Questions
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an evaluation by age 7. That doesn’t usually mean starting treatment then, it means spotting problems early enough that they’re simpler to correct later.
A dentist covers general oral health. An orthodontist completes two to three additional years of specialist training in moving teeth and correcting bites. Dr. Sohrabi is a board-certified orthodontist, and he’s in this practice.
It depends on how much movement is needed. Simple cases can be finished in under a year; more complex ones take longer. Dr. Sohrabi will give you a realistic range once he has seen your teeth.
Fitting braces doesn’t hurt. Teeth feel tender for a few days after they are placed and after each adjustment, and that settles. Aligners feel tight for a day or so with each new tray.
Many dental plans include orthodontic coverage, often with a lifetime maximum rather than an annual one. We’ll check your plan and tell you where you stand before you commit.
Yes, and adults are the largest group we treat. Teeth move at any age. The choice between braces and Invisalign usually comes down to how complex the case is and how visible you want treatment to be.
Yes. Retention is part of orthodontic treatment rather than an extra. The American Association of Orthodontists advises wearing a retainer most of the day and night at first, removing it only to eat, brush and floss, because the bone and tissue around the teeth need time to settle. Many patients later move to night-only wear, depending on how stable the teeth are and what their orthodontist advises.
They can. The American Association of Orthodontists calls it orthodontic relapse, and it happens because teeth naturally tend to move over time. Wearing your retainer as advised is what holds the result in place.
