Wardell Orthodontics

Wardell Orthodontics is a well-established and highly regarded orthodontic practice serving the communities of Glen Ellyn and Schaumburg, Illinois, as well as the surrounding suburbs. The practice is spearheaded by Dr. Bruce Wardell, a certified specialist in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. What sets Wardell Orthodontics apart is its commitment to providing comprehensive, high-quality orthodontic care in a fun, family-friendly environment. They cater to patients of all ages, including children, teenagers, and adults, understanding the unique needs and circumstances associated with each demographic. Dr. Wardell's extensive experience is a key differentiator; unlike many dental specialists who go directly into orthodontics, he practiced as a general dentist for six years, including serving as a dental officer in the U.S. Navy. This prior experience in general dentistry gives him a unique and holistic perspective on his patients' overall dental health when planning orthodontic treatments and collaborating with general dentists in the community. The practice prioritizes utilizing the most up-to-date technology and equipment to ensure the highest quality of care and efficient treatment. This includes state-of-the-art computer software, digital radiographs, advanced intraoral scanners, and monitored sterilization systems. They offer a variety of modern orthodontic solutions, including traditional braces and clear aligners like Invisalign, along with other advanced options like Propel and Carriere® Motion. Beyond the clinical excellence, Wardell Orthodontics places a strong emphasis on customer service and creating a positive patient experience. The friendly team is dedicated to making patients and their families feel welcome and informed, taking extra time to discuss treatment options, financial payment plans, and good oral hygiene. They believe in making the orthodontic journey enjoyable, offering in-office and social media contests, fun facts, and even office-sponsored movie days. Dr. Wardell is dedicated to continuing education, regularly participating in courses and seminars from leading orthodontic and dental organizations to stay current with the latest techniques and technological advancements. His treatment philosophy centers on providing safe, conservative, individualized care to help patients achieve a great smile and positive self-image. Wardell Orthodontics offers free initial consultations, which include a comprehensive exam, discussion of treatment options, timelines, and costs, and an opportunity for patients to ask any questions they may have. They also encourage patients to continue regular dental checkups with their family dentist during orthodontic treatment, coordinating care when necessary.
