We have had a great experience with Clearwave doctor and staff with both my boys!! Everyone is so kind and wonderful. Highly competitive with prices and much better experience as we started at another facility and switched care here. Always on time with when they get you from the lobby. The very best!!!!

I have been a patient at Clearwave for 4 years and have never been disappointed! Their service is by far the best that I’ve had as far as along the lines of ortho/dentistry.

I just had my braces removed and my teeth are the best they have ever looked!

If you live nearby, definitely come by for an appointment!

I recently got braces, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The entire process has been smooth and comfortable thanks to the amazing doctor and wonderful staff. They are professional, kind, and always take the time to explain everything clearly. I feel very well cared for and confident in their expertise. The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, which makes each visit a positive one. I’m so happy with my results!! 12 months and i’m done!! Yaya I know my kids will have the same great experience when it’s their turn. Highly recommend!

My first and best orthodontist! My journey for straight teeth could not have been possible without the effort and care Dr. Jinny and her staff have put in for me, in addition to all of their other patients. I have always appreciated their clean and organized office, as well as their comfortable waiting area abundant in snacks and drinks! My experience at Clearwave Orthodontics has been an enjoyable one, thank you and congratulations Dr. Jinny for initiating a wonderful establishment!

Dr. Jinny is amazing. From the first consultation, she took the time to understand what I wanted from ortho treatment and presented me with all the options. I’m usually super nervous about dentistry, but the team go over all my worries and make sure that I’m comfortable and fully informed the whole time.

Jay Regis

I chase this clinic because of all the great reviews they have . I was torn between going 2 clinics to finish my ortho that was started in ano tú er country . I have tmj and im very concerned of it because other than how I want my teeth to look c it's very important to me that my bite is perfect as well. When I came in, Melissa greeted with a big smile and made me feel welcomed . She explained all the processs and was very acommodatong with all my questions . She was wasn't pushy or made me feel like they just wanted my money . She'd and the doctor gave me all the information I needed to make a decision and if you ever need any braces done or Invisalign , this is the place to be . The doctor is focused on what's best for you , not just closeting a sale . Love it. Melissa thank you for all. Your help . Appreciate you guys there .

Sarah McVickar

HERO DTRT

My 8-year-old daughter started orthodontic treatment because one of her teeth wasn’t coming in due to her small lower jaw. The doctor explained everything well, and she’s now in the Phase II treatment process. Most of her teeth are coming in evenly, and I’m happy that she’ll have a beautiful smile.

All the staff are kind, and as long as we stick to the appointment time, there’s no waiting time. If your kids have a similar issue and you live in South Bay, I highly recommend Clearwave!

Best orthodonics in South bay! My son finished treatment here and got the great result!
