Orthodontic Services
At Cleveland Smile Center we customize our orthodontic treatment so that that each patient can achieve the beautiful, straight smile they desire. Time, comfort, and appearance are the three main factors we consider when determining which type of treatment is best for YOU! Our most common orthodontic treatment options include:
It is not that one works better than the other, they simply work differently.
Using state-of-the-art technology, we can take a digital scan of your mouth. This means no more messy impression material that can make you gag.
This approach also allows us to create virtual models to plan and monitor your treatment. We will also record 3D Cone Beam X-Rays of your jaw and skeletal structure to achieve the most accurate results.
For kids, we recommend examining patients as early as age eight and in certain situations younger. It is almost never too early to examine a child.
It gives us the option to begin some intervention treatment or place the patient on observation and review their growth and development on a regular basis.

Questions Our Patients Ask
What’s the difference between clear aligners and traditional braces?
Both clear aligners and traditional braces effectively straighten teeth—they just work differently. Traditional metal braces use brackets and wires that are adjusted periodically to move your teeth. Invisible clear aligners use a series of removable, transparent trays that gradually shift your teeth into position. Clear aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed for eating and cleaning, while braces are fixed in place. During your consultation, we’ll help you determine which option best fits your lifestyle, treatment needs, and goals for time, comfort, and appearance.
How long does orthodontic treatment typically take?
Most patients complete treatment within 12-24 months. However, treatment duration varies depending on the complexity of your case and the type of orthodontic treatment you need. There are some cases where simple alignment issues might be corrected in as little as 6 months, while more complex cases could take up to 3 years. We use state-of-the-art 3D technology and digital scanning to create virtual models that help us accurately plan your treatment timeline and monitor your progress along the way.
Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?
You’re never too old for orthodontics! An increasing number of adults are choosing to straighten their smiles. Orthodontic treatment works just as effectively for adults as it does for younger patients. In fact, clear aligner options are particularly popular among adults because they’re discreet and fit seamlessly into professional and social settings. Whether you’re 18 or 80, if you have healthy teeth and gums, orthodontic treatment can help you achieve the straight smile you’ve always wanted.
Do you offer payment plans for orthodontic treatment?
Yes! We understand that orthodontic treatment is an investment, and we provide convenient payment plans to make it affordable for you and your family. We offer flexible monthly payment plans from multiple providers. These options allow you to achieve a beautiful, straight smile at a comfortable rate. We also accept reimbursement from most insurance plans, and our team will work with you to maximize your benefits. Contact one of our offices in Aurora, Cuyahoga Falls, Bedford / Oakwood or Westlake for a consultation to discuss your options.
Why do you recommend orthodontic evaluations for children as young as age eight?
Early orthodontic evaluations allow us to monitor your child’s growth and development, catching potential issues before they become more serious. At age eight, children typically have a mix of baby and permanent teeth, which gives us valuable insight into how their jaw and teeth are developing. Early detection means we can begin intervention treatment if necessary or place your child on observation to track their progress. In certain situations, we may even evaluate children younger than eight. Early evaluation doesn’t always mean early treatment—it simply ensures we can provide the right care at the right time.
