Today I got my retainers from Advanced Orthodontics (Kent). I would like to say having Dr. Aragon and her team to take care of me is the most fortunate thing I have ever had in my 5 year and 5 months orthodontics journey. I am pretty sure my case was not an easy case in orthodontics in terms of my original teeth situation and being in my 40’s. When I started my ortho treatment with Advanced Orthodontics, it was not Dr. Aragon. But when Dr. Aragon came to take over, I knew I was in good hands immediately. Dr. Aragon is very patient and professional. She would not sacrifice the patient’s outcome by rushing to the end of the treatment. She has a very high standard and wants to make sure my teeth look perfect before going onto the next step. She cares about my dental health. She is very responsible and would coordinate with my general dentist for any procedures without affecting the ortho treatments. She is always at the office. Even when she had a baby, she came back very soon to take care of the patients. No matter how hard my case is, she would not give up and would still try other methods to achieve the best result. Dr. Aragon’s team are super sweet, too. From the front desk to all the assistants in the office, they are all very friendly, hardworking and patient. They explained every step and everything very clearly and professionally. Whenever I had schedule conflicts and was not able to make my appointments, they would help me reschedule without question. They really took great care of me. Dr. Aragon is the best orthodontists I have ever met. I dreamed about having nice straight teeth for many years. It was Dr. Aragon’s team made my dream come true. Thank you all so much! If you are looking for nice straight teeth and a great orthodontist, Dr. Aragon at Advanced Orthodontics is definitely the best place to go to.

We have had an incredible experience with Dr. Gabriela Aragon! My son started his braces treatment here two years ago, and because of the amazing service, my daughter is now getting her braces here too. Dr. Aragon and the entire staff are professional, kind, and welcoming. They make scheduling very easy and their communication is the best we have ever experienced. If you need an orthodontist, this is the absolute best place to go!

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Advanced Orthodontics! From the very first consultation, the team made me feel welcome and completely at ease. The office is modern, clean, and equipped with the latest technology like the iTero scanner, which made the whole process so smooth and precise. Dr. Aragon and the entire staff are absolute professionals—kind, patient, and genuinely invested in getting the best results. They took the time to explain every step, answered all my questions (even the silly ones!), and created a personalized treatment plan that fit my lifestyle perfectly. I went with Invisalign, and the results have been incredible. My smile looks straighter and brighter than I ever imagined, and the treatment was faster and more comfortable than I expected.What really stands out is how they treat you like family. Appointments run on time, the atmosphere is friendly and fun (especially for my kids who also go there), and the follow-up care has been outstanding. If you're considering braces or Invisalign, do yourself a favor and choose Advanced Orthodontics—you won't regret it! Thank you for giving me the confidence to smile big every day!

I had such a pleasant consultation. Dr. Aragon and Alana was so sweet and listened to my complexed orthodontic history (no movement on two different orthodontic treatments as a kid and adult). Their imaging is very advanced like their business name, and I was able to see my teeth and oral cavity in a way I’ve never seen before. If you had bad experiences with orthodontic care or no luck with braces, and really want an expert to give you thorough insight on possible reasons, call Advanced Orthodontics (Kent). Plus, the office is very accessible, clean, and the all-female staff are badass! Much love and I can’t wait to start my treatment when I’m medically cleared.
