Dr. Issam was very professional and made sure I understood every step that will be taken to have my teeth fixed up.Today I went and had my braces put on. The process was easy and stress free! Breaks we’re given when needed, and again the staff ensured my thorough understanding of the process.

Dr. Issam is great. He asked me what I wanted from the treatment and let me choose the option I was comfortable with.

I’m almost at the end of my Invisalign treatment and I am so glad I chose Dr. Issam’s services for this!They have a super clean and organized space, and great processes that always makes me feel relaxed to go there. This was the reason I chose to come here for my treatment in the first place, and they offered a free consultation. (I had gone to another orthodontist on bank st for a consultation, and hated the experience and service there).

Adeleke Johnson

I had an exceptional experience with Dr. Issam Abualreesh. I recently received a 5-star treatment for my adult Invisalign at the age of 47. Dr. Abualreesh and the team corrected several teeth and adjusted my bite with utmost precision. The service provided was extremely professional, and they are dedicated to achieving excellent results.

FAQ

Is the first consultation really free?

Yes. Your initial visit includes photos, a 3-D scan, and a personalized treatment estimate—no strings attached.

Do I need a referral from my dentist to book?

No. While we love collaborating with local dentists, you may contact us directly at any time.

What payment options do you offer?

We accept all major credit cards, provide in-house, no-interest monthly plans, and will file insurance claims on your behalf. Ask about family or pay-in-full discounts, too.

Will my insurance cover orthodontic treatment?

Most dental plans include a lifetime orthodontic benefit. At your consult we’ll verify coverage, explain any out-of-pocket costs, and submit claims electronically.

How long does treatment usually take?

Typical cases range from 6–24 months, depending on complexity and patient compliance. You’ll receive a precise timeline after your exam.

How often are appointments?

Braces adjustments are every 4-8 weeks; clear-aligner check-ins are usually every 6-10 weeks. Each visit lasts about 15-30 minutes.

What if a bracket breaks or my aligner cracks?

Call us at 613-123-4567. We reserve same-day “comfort visits” for urgent repairs and can often guide minor fixes over the phone.

Do you treat adults, too?

Absolutely. Nearly 40 % of our patients are adults seeking discreet options like clear aligners or ceramic brackets.

Will orthodontic treatment hurt?

Expect mild pressure or soreness for a day or two after adjustments or new aligners. Over-the-counter pain relievers and a soft-food diet usually do the trick.

What happens after treatment ends?

You’ll receive a custom retainer plan—typically full-time wear for a few months, then nights only—to keep your smile straight for life.

My Approach to Your Smile

I believe that orthodontic care is as much an art as it is a science. My goal is to understand each patient’s unique story and needs, then craft a treatment plan that fits seamlessly into their lifestyle. From teens balancing busy school schedules to adults juggling work and family, I’m dedicated to ensuring your orthodontic journey is stress-free, transparent, and tailored to you
