Specialized Training and Expertise - Orthodontists are dental specialists who complete an additional 2–3 years of focused training beyond dental school. During this time, they learn the intricacies of tooth movement, jaw alignment, and facial development.
Dr. Medina is a certified board orthodontist, meaning she has passed rigorous examinations and demonstrated her excellence in the specialty.
While general dentists may take short-term orthodontic courses, they don’t have the same depth of training. Choosing Medina Orthodontics ensures your treatment is being planned and supervised by a professional who lives and breathes orthodontics every day.
Customized Treatment Plans for Complex Cases - Not all smiles are created equal. Some patients have simple spacing issues, while others may struggle with bite problems, jaw misalignment, or impacted teeth. These complex cases require a specialist’s expertise.
At Medina Orthodontics, Dr. Medina evaluates your specific needs with a trained eye, using advanced imaging and diagnostic tools. Whether you’re a teen or an adult, she creates a personalized treatment plan designed for long-term success.
Advanced Orthodontic Technology - Because orthodontics is her sole focus, Dr. Medina invests in the latest tools and techniques for the best results.
General dentists may only offer limited orthodontic options and often rely on third-party providers for aligners leading to less control and customization. With Medina Orthodontics, you get cutting-edge technology, on-site adjustments, and complete treatment oversight from a true expert.
Better Results and Long-Term Stability - Orthodontic treatment is about more than a pretty smile. It’s about achieving a healthy bite and preserving your dental health for years to come. Poorly aligned teeth can lead to wear, decay, TMJ pain, and gum disease. Improperly planned treatment can worsen these problems or cause relapse.
Dr. Medina ensures that teeth are moved in the correct sequence and stabilized properly with retainers and follow-up care. Her goal isn’t just short-term improvement, but lasting results.
A Supportive, Patient-Focused Experience - Medina Orthodontics offers a boutique-style practice that makes patients feel like family. From the friendly front desk to the bilingual team, every visit is personal, comfortable, and stress-free. You won’t feel rushed and you’ll always see Dr. Medina during your appointments.
While a general dentist may be able to start your orthodontic journey, a specialist like Dr. Medina is uniquely trained to guide it to success. Medina Orthodontics provides the expertise, advanced technology, and compassionate care you need to achieve a confident, healthy smile for life.
