Now is the time to use your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) to start orthodontics treatment. While HSA funds can be rolled over to the next year, FSAs typically do not allow for rollover and need to be spent before the end of the year.

Why Trust A Specialist For Your Family’s Orthodontic Care?
Orthodontists are members of the oral health care team who are experts in the correction of alignment problems of the teeth and jaws. Equipped with post-doctoral level training in growth and development, bite correction and tooth movement mechanics, orthodontists are uniquely prepared to address the full spectrum of your family’s orthodontic and esthetic concerns.
Dental school graduates enroll in 2-3 years of additional education and research in order to be recognized as orthodontists. Likewise, a subset of orthodontists take the additional step of sitting for written and oral board examinations, after entering practice, in order to become (ABO) board certified.
While some general dental offices offer orthodontic services alongside various other oral health procedures, orthodontists build specialized facilities and teams in order to provide convenient and optimal care to their patients. Also, many members of the community have asked about DIY ortho box options offered by tech start-ups. Unfortunately, these products are sharply limited by the lack of direct ongoing supervision by an orthodontist.
It can be confusing to have to decide between an orthodontist, your family dentist, or even the DIY website products. We would love to discuss these options with you and answer your questions. There is nothing to lose and much to gain during your complimentary consultation with us.
We are very grateful and proud to have served the Fairfax Station community for the past 15 years, offering specialty orthodontic services to children, adolescents and adults. We look forward to meeting you!
