Braces & Clear Aligner Options in Irvine, CA

From advanced clear aligners to proven metal and ceramic braces, Dr. Lee will help you choose the treatment that fits your smile goals, lifestyle, and budget.

Clear Aligners

Straighten your teeth without metal wires. We use Spark and Angel aligner systems—premium alternatives to traditional aligners—for a discreet, comfortable fit.

Metal Braces

Still the gold standard for reliable, effective orthodontic treatment. Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and work faster than ever before.

Clear Ceramic Braces

Get the precision of traditional braces with a subtler look. Clear ceramic brackets blend with your teeth, making your orthodontic treatment far less noticeable.
