We want you to feel comfortable and confident while we work on your smile. Together, we’ll find the right fit for your life. At Charleston Orthodontic Specialists, we offer:
- Metal braces: These are the reliable classics you know, but today’s versions are much smaller, more streamlined, and more comfortable than they used to be. They are a proven and effective way to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
When Should My Child See an Orthodontist?
Most experts suggest a first checkup around age seven. It doesn’t always mean they need braces right away, but it helps us keep an eye on how their adult teeth are coming in. Our free Growth Guidance program is a great way to start this journey together.

Is It Too Late for My Teen to Start Braces?
The teen years are actually a great time to start! Since they’re still growing, we can often get results more quickly. Plus, we see how much a new smile helps their confidence grow, and that’s our favorite part of the job. We offer metal braces for teens to help them achieve a healthy, straight smile during these formative years.
Can Adults Get Braces Too?
Absolutely. More adults are choosing braces than ever before. Whether you’re looking for a small change or a big transformation, we’re here for you. We’ll make sure your treatment is effective and fits into your busy schedule.

What Is Life Like With Braces?
Starting braces is a big step, and it’s normal to have questions. We’ll be with you every step of the way.
- Eating: You’ll want to skip very sticky or hard foods for a bit to keep your brackets safe.
- Cleaning: Brushing and flossing take a little more time, but we’ll show you all the best tricks to keep things sparkling.
- Comfort: You might feel a little sore at first, but a simple saltwater rinse or over-the-counter pain relief usually does the trick.

I cant not remember her name but she knows who she is… my son and I came for a consultation for my son to get braces AGAIN…. Side note… I have this thing where his name is pronounced incorrectly alot of time and often when I correct others they catch a attitude and get highly offended… I want to say thank you for correcting yourself with pronuncing his name but not only that.. that just set the tone for the appointment…. Everything she did was personable… I didnt feel pressured to hurry into an agreement for his braces, I also had my younger som my babyboy with me and you know that 3 years old can get kind of touchy and like to adventure off sometimes….. she made me feel very comfortable even when he was “being a kid” it was like he could do no wrong and you know it came from a genuine place ….. Im sooooo sorry I can not remember her name to recognize her but she knows who she is and thank you!!! The little things matter more than you think and just from that experience it made me decide even more like yeaaaaaaaa this is the place to be because just from that experience, I know they are going to take care of my oldest especially with his smile!! See you guys soon for our next appointment
We love Charleston Orthodontics. The staff is AWESOME. So accommodating and friendly. Made the braces experience for both our kids super smooth. They even knew to give them sunglasses to wear when they came in because their futures are so bright. (Sorry. I’m a dad. I don’t know how to turn the dad jokes off.)
Wonderful atmosphere, two rounds of braces with the company, and all of them are so friendly and overall amazing. Highly recommend!
Dr Lee is so thorough and friendly. I had Invisalign here and brought my daughter here too for her braces!
Was able to get an appointment and speak with Dr. Patel and start my daughters treatment plan. He explained what she needed and gave an estimate on how long he thought it would take. I was able to get a discount and make installments for her braces. They also were able to get her braces placed on the same day we started the contract. The woman who explained the contract was very nice and explained everything for me as well. The place was clean 🧼 and relaxing. Staff was pleasant.Bonus Mrs. Penny was still there and she’s amazing and is always welcoming and smiling ☺️
