We understand starting orthodontic treatment is exciting but can also sometimes be a little overwhelming. You might not be sure whether orthodontics is right for you, or what treatment would suit you best.
We are always here to help – you can book a Complimentary virtual assessment or come and visit us at our Redwood Shores, CA office.
The best results come to patients who understand the whole process and that’s why we have invested in a comprehensive, computerized patient education program. Understanding what’s involved will help you make an informed decision after some initial guidance from our expert orthodontist, Dr. Wu. But why should you visit an orthodontist, and how are they different to dentists?

Emergency Care Info
It was a great experience to receive the help that I got when going through getting braces. A treatment coordinator named Josie was very kind and friendly. An RDA named Kim helped me throughout the time I had braces making sure I knew what to do and what to look out for. Assisting in making sure that I got my braces off as soon as possible while getting the best results. The staff were very friendly and Dr. Wu was supportive and happy to see good results. All in all it was an amazing experience. Dr. Wu gave the best option for me to straighten my teeth the fastest.
