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.
Braces Reviews
Went in for a consultation and walked out with braces! Dr. Patel and his team are so nice and awesome!
Just got my braces done at Charleston Orthodontics. Staff was nice, process was quick, and everything went smooth. Looking forward to my results
It was pretty cool I just got braces on Meagan is who pulled me in the back I believe … she is pretty chill I enjoyed her vibe I wouldn’t mind getting her every time to keep it real .
They did an amazing job with my braces and all the work I've needed since, everyone is super nice, there is very little wait time, and the appointments are quick.I've definitely got my money's worth.11/10, would recommend if you need braces, retainers, Invisalign, or any other devices to fix your crooked teeth :)
My experience with Charleston Orthodontics was great! I got my appointment very quickly and my transition from my previous ortho to them was very smooth and hassle free. The staff was very friendly and professional, the payment process was super easy (& much less than I expected), & swapping my braces out went by extremely fast. Every appointment was a breeze & truly enjoyed the staff! I am now completed my treatment and I am more than satisfied with my results! Highly recommend
