The practice maintains two convenient locations, with one situated at 880 Commerce Dr, Perrysburg, OH 43551, and another in Oregon, OH.

She is a Diplomat of the American Board of Orthodontics and an active member of several professional organizations, including the American Dental Association and American Association of Orthodontists. Phelan Orthodontics is committed to providing high-quality orthodontic treatment using the most current modalities available. Their services cater to children, adolescents, and adults, offering a range of solutions for teeth straightening and bite correction. Key treatments include traditional metal braces (often self-ligating for enhanced comfort and efficiency), clear braces, and Invisalign® clear aligners. They are experienced in treating complex cases, including those requiring interventional or early orthodontic treatment, and collaborate with oral surgeons when surgical orthodontics are necessary. The clinic emphasizes a patient-centric approach, focusing on creating a comfortable and welcoming environment. They offer initial consultations that include a review of dental and medical history, comprehensive oral exams with X-rays, and the creation of customized treatment plans. Financial information, insurance options, and payment plans are thoroughly discussed upfront, with the clinic partnering with Orthofi to create customized financial plans and accepting most insurance plans. They also prioritize local collaboration, working with Toledo-based companies for tech support, accounting, and advertising. Patient testimonials consistently highlight the friendly and professional staff, caring doctors, and positive treatment experiences.
