Braces we offer
Metal braces
Traditional metal braces are more comfortable today than ever. Made of high-grade stainless steel with the options of adding colorful elastic ties.
In addition to standard metal braces we can use ‘Self-Ligating’ braces for certain cases. Dr. Gilbert will discuss his recommendations for you at your appointment.
Clear Braces
Ceramic brackets are the go-to choice for those with aesthetic concerns. They incorporate the strength and function of traditional braces with the appeal of translucent brackets that blend in with your teeth.
Made with an innovative ceramic material, these brackets are durable as well as attractive. They move teeth as efficiently as traditional brackets and are safe for patients of all ages. Ceramic brackets can give you the same great orthodontic results without the need for conspicuous metal brackets
Clear Aligners
Clear aligner treatment is the perfect option for people looking to improve their smile comfortably and discreetly. With Gilbert Orthodontics your aligner treatment will be tailored to you. We don’t limit ourselves; instead, we choose to work with many of the big names in aligner treatment like 3M Clarity, Invisalign, and Spark to ensure that your aligners are best suited to your case.
We even have our own in-house aligner system, GO Smile Clear Aligners, which offer many of the same advantages as Invisalign. Our state-of-the-art intraoral scanners capture the contours of your teeth in high definition. We then create a 3D model and Dr. Gilbert meticulously plans each tooth movement. We put our 3D printers to work to get your aligners made at a much faster rate than larger companies and have none of the hassles of shipping.
The benefits of aligners include:

“Went for initial consult…very impressed with everyone in the office! Dr. Gilbert was very thorough and Tanya responded to my emails right away. Off to a great start! “
“I really enjoyed my experience at Gilbert Orthodontics. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff and I thought Dr. Gilbert was thorough with his exam and took his time explaining everything to me. Would highly recommend!”
“Never a fan of my smile, at age 52 I realized that my bottom teeth were starting to crowd. For my anniversary, my wife gave me the wonderful gift of fixing my smile! After asking multiple people, I decided to go to Dr. Gilbert. A great decision. Dr. Gilbert and his staff were friendly and welcoming. They explained all my options as well as the trade offs between the different treatments. I am now 1/4 of the way through and can already see a significant improvement in my smile. Its amazing how much more I’m smiling.”
“Dr. Gilbert and his staff are wonderful. They are kind, friendly and get to know their patients and their families by name. The office is clean, bright, and modern. Dr.Gilbert has done a phenomenal job with my son and his teeth. An added bonus is the location in downtown Highland Park. When my son went to Elm Place he walked there (it’s almost across the street). He was able to take an appointment in the middle of the day and make it back to school. Northwood kids who will be at Elm Place for the next two years may want to jump on that. Truly a great orthodontist. Smart, trustworthy, kind and a pleasure to work with.”
“AWESOME office and staff! Couldn’t ask for better service. I appreciate that the office is supportive to his community, and also took my daughters case on as a Smiles Change Lives recipient, covering the cost of her braces.
My daughter was terrified of getting braces and Dr Gilbert and his staff made her feel so comfortable, and taught her how to care for them at home. We cannot wait to see how her teeth change!”
“My daughter received Invisalign from Gilbert Orthodontics in Highland Park and I was extremely happy with the overall experience. My daughter’s teeth look great and Dr. Gilbert and the Office Staff were very friendly, professional and accommodating. My daughter was away at college and they were especially helpful in coordinating visits; including coming in on off hours. I highly recommend Gilbert Orthodontics”
“The experience is always professional, skilled, and thoughtful!!!”

Early treatment
As a parent, it’s not always easy to know if your child will need orthodontic treatment. While there is no exact age for children to begin orthodontics treatment, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic visit at around the age of seven. By this age, most children have a mix of both adult and baby teeth. This will allow the orthodontist to assess whether or not early intervention is needed to correct problems with the teeth and jaws, and potentially avoid surgery down the road.
