Why Us
We believe that success is all in the details. By combining Dr. Gao’s personal attention and devotion with our team’s exceptional orthodontic care, magic happens one smile at a time. We also offer several conveniences to ensure that our patients always have the best possible experience.
Modern Technology
Our office utilizes the most innovative technology to provide the highest level of care.
- iTero – The iTero scanner digitally captures the structure of the teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. Digital software then creates a 3D simulation to help patients visualize how their teeth may look at the end of Invisalign treatment. No more messy impressions!
- Digital X-rays- While traditional X-rays are considered safe, digital X-rays produce 80% less radiation and capture clearer and more accurate images. Only the best for our patients!


Flexible Payment Options
Finances shouldn’t get in the way of a healthier, more beautiful smile. That is why we offer in-house financing with a flexible no-interest payment plan that can be customized to fit your budget.
Availability
We are open 4 days per week (closed on Wednesdays- Dr. Gao’s teaching day at UCLA) and select Saturdays.
New Patient Exam
During your exam, you will have the opportunity to meet our warm and experienced team, learn about orthodontics and receive a complete initial exam by Dr. Gao and Dr. Phi. During this consultation, we will:
- Review your dental and medical history
- Provide a complete orthodontic exam and advanced imaging to determine the best treatment options
- Design customized treatment plans
- Discuss all financial options, including insurance coverage and payment plans

Scheduling Appointments
Your personalized treatment plan will continue with regular visits to our office every 8-10 weeks to monitor your progress. These checkups generally last between 15-30 minutes. Our staff will work with you to make sure that your appointments are as convenient as possible. We offer Saturday appointments to accommodate you and your family’s busy schedules.
