Michael Orthodontics

Michael Orthodontics is a well-established orthodontic clinic located at 12520 Prosperity Dr #340, Silver Spring, MD 20904. The practice is helmed by Dr. Kerolos Michael, who received his Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Ohio State University, his Dental Degree from Howard University College of Dentistry, and his orthodontic specialty certificate from the University of Pittsburgh Orthodontic Residency Program. The clinic offers a wide array of orthodontic services designed to address various dental and jaw alignment issues for both children and adults. Their treatment options include: Invisalign® and Invisalign Teen®: A popular choice for those seeking a discreet treatment, these clear, removable aligners are custom-made using 3D computer graphics to gradually shift teeth into the desired position. Traditional Metal Braces: Made of high-grade stainless steel, these are a classic and effective method for straightening teeth, with options for colored elastics. Ceramic Braces: Utilizing clear materials, these braces are less visible than metal braces, offering a more aesthetic option. Lingual Braces: These are hidden behind the teeth, making them completely "invisible" when smiling. They are 100% customized to the shape of the patient's teeth. Michael Orthodontics also provides early treatment for children to guide jaw growth and address potential issues before permanent teeth fully emerge. They treat common orthodontic problems such as crowded teeth, underbites, overbites, spacing issues, crossbites, protruded teeth, and open bites. The practice prides itself on its patient-centered approach, aiming to provide high-quality orthodontic care in a friendly and comfortable environment. Their team is experienced and committed to continuous education to stay updated on the latest techniques and technologies in orthodontics. They also prioritize making treatment affordable by accepting most major insurances and offering flexible payment plans with low monthly options. The clinic's philosophy emphasizes not just achieving straight teeth but also promoting overall oral health and a confident smile. Patients frequently commend the friendly and professional staff, the thorough explanations provided by Dr. Michael, and the comfortable atmosphere of the office.
