Our Services
Early Orthodontic Treatment & Expanders
At Rafati Orthodontics, the early treatment we provide involves diagnosing and addressing orthodontic issues in children while they are still growing and developing.
Adult Orthodontic Treatment
A radiant smile knows no age limits. Adult orthodontic treatment has emerged as a transformative solution that breaks age barriers, offering a chance to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
Surgical Orthodontic Treatment
A captivating smile is a window to confidence and self-assuredness. As children grow and develop, their oral health is crucial to their overall well-being.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
A captivating smile is a reflection of confidence and well-being. Sometimes, though, achieving that radiant smile involves more than just braces or aligners.
Flexible & Affordable Payments
We have affordable treatment options including interest-free payments within two years.
