We had such a great experience at ClearWave Orthodontics! We came in for an initial consultation and were so impressed from start to finish. They provided complimentary scans and X-rays, which made the process feel thorough and thoughtful right away.

The doctor took the time to clearly explain the recommended treatment plan and, more importantly, why it was the best approach. I especially appreciated the explanation of how the width of the palate impacts not just teeth alignment, but also nasal passages—something I hadn’t considered before and found really insightful.

The entire office staff was warm, welcoming, and professional, which made the visit even more comfortable. Overall, it was a really positive experience, and we’re feeling confident and excited to move forward with treatment here!

Clearwave Orthodontics is the best. My son Elliott went through his first phase of braces, and everyone was wonderful. The doctor and all the assistants were very knowledgable about the process. From a parents view, everything seemed to be planned and taken care of for me. I recommend this place for anyone looking to get some orthodontic work done, child or adult.

We drive from 2 hours away just to come to Clearwave Orthodontics. All the orthodontists near us told us our daughter would need surgery for her underbite. It’s already being corrected with Dr. Jinny with aligners and an expander.

Thank you so much. Dr. Kwak, I'll remember it forever.
I've finished my orthodontics. I'm 56-year-old, a cerebral hemorrhage patient who had brain surgery twice. She saved my life like a magic princess. I enjoyed my orthodontics. It was nice to see the doctor and staff all smile and take care of each and every one of them. Thank you very much.

Thanks to Dr. Kwak and her entire office staff, getting braces as an adult has been much easier than I thought. The office is run so efficiently; patients are rewarded for being on time with prompt service; the staff communicates clearly and timely with return calls and thorough explanations of billing. Furthermore they are patient and helpful, especially when it comes to providing insurance documentation. The office is a clean and inviting, and Dr. Kwak's bedside manner eases the nerves of adult first time wearers.
