5 stars for Dr. Audrey Yoon and her amazing team at Redwood Shores Orthodontics!

They provide exceptional care for both children and adults—not just with traditional orthodontics like braces and Invisalign, but with a whole-body health approach. They go beyond straightening teeth by addressing airway issues, improving nasal breathing, enhancing sleep, and supporting overall wellness.

Special shout-out to Johanna—but truly, the entire team is outstanding. Everyone is warm, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to delivering excellent care.

Thank you so much for the incredible treatment and the dedication you show to your patients!

Dr. Wu and the team made the entire orthodontic process smooth and stress-free. I wore aligners for exactly the amount of time originally estimated, and everything stayed on track thanks to consistent, well-managed appointments. Each visit was efficient, and I always felt well taken care of. Dr. Wu’s detailed approach and clear communication made it easy to stay motivated throughout the process. I appreciated the attention to small adjustments and the genuine care they showed. The final result is fantastic—my teeth look and feel great. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend to anyone considering aligners.
