About L.A. Dental Braces
Income-based financing and prices reviewers call some of the lowest in LA draw budget-minded families for braces and Invisalign.
Cost comes up more here than at most orthodontic offices, with reviewers pointing to income-based payment plans and quotes that beat competitors around town. Front-desk staff are named individually and praised for warmth and patience answering questions before treatment starts. Reviewers also describe visible progress with Invisalign and braces, including gaps closing with retainers and noticeable movement within the first few aligner trays. A number of reviews come from families juggling several kids in treatment or from patients transferring in mid-course.

My ortho Vanessa is amazing, her work never fails. She’s very sweet and kind. She always makes sure I’m comfortable and that everything looks good.
This is the worst clinic you could choose for anything, whether it’s braces or any other dental procedure. They don’t explain what they’re going to do; they simply tell you to wait for the doctor, and when he finally arrives, he sticks his hands in your mouth and walks away. They don’t even say hello; they are incredibly rude and completely unprofessional. However, when it comes to money, they *do* explain the details—exactly how much you owe, how much you have to pay, and how quickly you need to hand it over—because that is the only thing they truly care about. That’s why I advise you to think very carefully before choosing this clinic.
The L.A. Dental Braces office was very clean. The staff were very professional & kind. The person who took the x-rays of my teeth was VERY helpful. She explained the whole process in detail and was very kind as I had shared that it was my first dental exam in years. I recommend this office to everyone.
I’ve been going to LA Dental Braces since December, and I absolutely love my experience so far. Vanessa is so sweet, helpful, and always makes sure everything is taken care of. Sometimes I mess up my brackets, and they are very understanding and replace them with no problem. Everyone is kind and professional. I highly recommend them😊😊😊😊
La Dental is a great place! I had braces for years back home in Florida, and when I moved to California, I needed a dentist. I found La Dental, and they’ve been amazing. They told me my gap should be closed in less than a year. I’m very happy with my experience so far!
