Braces for teens and adults — with the total cost up front.

Braces or clear aligners — matched to your case

Both straighten teeth and correct the bite — but the right one depends on your case, not just preference. Dr. Shantall examines your teeth, recommends the option that will work best, and explains why.

Your braces, in Dr. Shantall’s hands

Straightening teeth is the heart of what Dr. Shantall does. She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery at NYU, completed orthodontic training through Progressive Orthodontics, and has completed hundreds of orthodontic cases — skills honed at a high-volume Miami practice and now brought home to families in North Broward. She plans each case alongside Dr. Dillon, so you get two experienced dentists looking after one clear plan.

When a case calls for a team

Not every case is treated entirely in-house. Some bites and more complex cases are best handled with a team approach. When that’s the right call, Dr. Shantall coordinates with our trusted orthodontic and oral-surgery colleagues and stays involved in your care — so nothing is simply handed off and pieced together.

Why straightening matters, especially for teens

• Lifelong health. Straighter teeth are easier to keep clean and less prone to uneven wear.
• Confidence. The teen years are when confidence takes shape — a smile a young person feels good about follows them into friendships, the classroom, and one day the job they’re hoping for.
• Timing. We see teens from age 14 and adults, and we’ll let you know the right time to start.

Getting started

1. Free consultation. An exam and any X-rays needed to plan your treatment — no cost, no obligation.
2. A clear plan and one total cost. One number for the whole case — not a per-visit drip — and an affordable monthly plan.
3. Start treatment. Braces placed in our office, with friendly check-ins to keep everything on track.
4. Retention. A retainer keeps the result in place once braces come off.

One office for the whole family

A lot of families come to us for braces and haven’t had a checkup in years — and that’s completely okay, with zero judgment. We take care of cleanings, cavities, and whatever else your teeth need right here, alongside your braces. One bilingual team, no being sent across town.

What braces cost

We give you the total cost up front at your free consultation and offer low monthly payment plans so treatment fits your family’s budget. We work with many PPO dental plans and will check your orthodontic benefits for you. See insurance & payment options.
