About Kumra Orthodontics
Honest recommendations against unnecessary treatment and no sales pressure mark consultations with Dr. Bob Kumra and Dr. Mina Abdolahi, even for complex Invisalign cases.
Reviews here lean heavily toward Invisalign and clear aligner treatment, with many describing timelines that matched or beat original estimates even for multi-year cases involving jaw surgery or expanders. A recurring thread is the absence of upselling: several reviews specifically contrast Kumra Orthodontics with other providers who pushed treatment they didn't need, noting instead that Dr. Bob Kumra or Dr. Mina Abdolahi advised against unnecessary work to save patients money. The two DC and Virginia locations near Farragut and DuPont are mentioned often for their convenient parking and flexible hours for working adults. Beyond the specifics, patients often note a warm, attentive front desk that helps coordinate insurance and mid-treatment transfers.

Dr. Kumra and Dr. Mina are the absolute best!! During my first time receiving treatment I had to undergo some medical treatment that required a pause in treatment and they were the absolute most amazing and kindest people to me belong me stay on track and accommodating to my family’s and I needs. Their true love and passion for the profession and helping others is like no other! Both Stafford and DC office staff are very kind and friendly, Kumra orthodontics is the best office to get treated at WITHOUT A DOUBT!!
Kumra Orthodontics was one of the best experiences I’ve had on my journey to improving my oral health. The entire team is incredibly professional, friendly, and helpful. From the very beginning, I felt confident in the process and truly trusted the staff every step of the way. I couldn’t be happier with my results and am so proud of the outcome. I highly recommend Kumra Orthodontics to anyone seeking orthodontic care. They are simply the best! ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐️⭐️
I had an outstanding experience at Kumra Orthodontics. From the very start, Dr. Mina was incredibly communicative, informative, and thoughtful. I wasn't the easiest patient; I had several requests and adjustments for my personal treatment plan, and Dr. Mina was always accommodating, patient, and kind. Throughout the entire process, she made sure I understood what was happening and felt comfortable with each step. Her goodwill, enthusiasm, and positive energy are truly infectious — every visit was a pleasure. I will genuinely miss Dr. Mina and her entire wonderful staff. A fantastic experience all around.
I can’t recommend Kumra Orthodontics highly enough! I recently completed my aligner treatment with Dr. Mina, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one until the day I graduated to nighttime retainers, the ENTIRE team was incredibly patient, kind, encouraging, and supportive. Like many people, I experienced moments of “aligner fatigue,” but they never made me feel discouraged or judged. Instead, they kept cheering me on, helping me stay focused on the finish line. Their encouragement made more of a difference than they probably realize. Every visit felt special. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re treated like a VIP. More importantly, they genuinely care about you as a person. They are deeply invested in your journey and celebrate every milestone with you. By the end of my treatment, I was genuinely sad that “graduation day” had arrived because I’ll truly miss seeing them. That’s the kind of experience they create. I’m beyond thrilled with my results, and I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Mina and the entire Kumra Orthodontics team for their expertise, compassion, and unwavering support. If you’re looking for an orthodontic practice that delivers exceptional results while making you feel cared for every step of the way, this is it. They are simply the best.
Kumra is THE BEST. I was actually sad to finish my check-ups because I will miss the team! From the helpful, sweet ladies at the front desk to the office management staff (thanks for the delightful coffees!!), knowledgeable orthodontic/clinical assistants and, of course, Dr. Mina and Dr. Bob, they're all amazing! I received excellent and reasonably priced treatment for realigning my upper and lower teeth to not hit (and prevent damage!) - and it was always such a nice experience. Good people who really care and really know their stuff. Whether you wind up primarily seeing the fabulous Dr. Mina or Dr. Bob (what a card!), you can't go wrong. Also loved that they can make their own "Invisilign," which is a more approachable option and works all the same. Also, the parking garage at 1160 19th St. NW is super close, very reasonable on Spot Hero, and likewise, super nice folks!! Cannot recommend Kumra enough! (DC patient).
