Our Westmont Orthodontic Treatments
Every smile is different, which is why we offer several orthodontic treatment options for Westmont patients. During your consultation, Dr. Neal will evaluate your teeth, bite, goals, and lifestyle before recommending the best path forward.
Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces remain a dependable option for straightening teeth and improving concerns like crowding, spacing, and bite problems.
They use wires and brackets to gently improve the alignment of your teeth over time.
Braces may be a great choice for kids, teens, and adults who need dependable results, especially for more complex orthodontic concerns. Today’s braces are smaller and more comfortable than many patients expect, and younger patients can even personalize their look with colored bands.
Invisalign
If you want a discreet way to straighten your teeth, Invisalign may be a great fit. Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that are custom-made to move your teeth gradually.
Many patients appreciate that aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing. This means you can keep enjoying your favorite foods and care for your teeth without working around brackets and wires.
Invisalign patients in Westmont may choose this option because it is:
- Clear and low-profile
- Removable for meals and oral hygiene
- Comfortable for many daily routines
- A good option for many teens and adults
During your consultation, Dr. Neal can see if Invisalign is right for your smile goals.
Clear and Invisible Braces Options
Some patients want effective orthodontic care without the look of traditional metal braces. If you are comparing clear braces in Westmont or invisible braces in Westmont, Oakbrook Orthodontics can help you understand the differences.
Depending on your needs, your options may include Invisalign, other clear aligners, or more discreet bracket systems. We will explain how each treatment works, what it can correct, and what to expect throughout the process so you can make a confident decision.
Other Types of Aligners
In addition to Invisalign, our team may recommend other aligner systems based on your treatment needs, budget, or goals. Some aligners may be a better fit for minor tooth movement, while others may work well for patients looking for a different style of clear aligner treatment.
The right choice depends on your smile, your bite, and how much correction is needed. That is why every plan at Oakbrook Orthodontics is customized.
AcceleDent
For some patients, AcceleDent may be used as part of treatment to support tooth movement. This hands-free device uses gentle micropulses and is designed to be used for a short time each day.
Dr. Neal will let you know if AcceleDent is a good option for your treatment plan and explain how to use it properly.
Surgical Orthodontics
In more severe cases involving jaw alignment, surgical orthodontics may be recommended along with braces or aligners. This type of care can help correct concerns that cannot be treated with orthodontics alone.
If surgical orthodontics is needed, Dr. Neal will work closely with the appropriate specialists to help plan your care and support your long-term results.

Understanding Your Treatment Plan
Your smile journey begins with a consultation. During this visit, Dr. Neal will review your teeth, bite, and overall orthodontic needs. We may take photos, digital X-rays, or other records to better understand your smile.
From there, we will explain your treatment options, expected timeline, and financial details. Whether your plan includes braces, Invisalign, clear aligners, or another option, you will know what to expect before getting started.
Most orthodontic treatment takes time, but every case is unique. Some patients need minor adjustments, while others need more complete correction. Throughout your treatment, our team will monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed to help you achieve a healthy, confident smile.
