About Bethesda Orthodontics

Dr. Sagafi is known for untangling complex or previously mismanaged cases, including adults fixing shifted teeth from earlier orthodontic work.

Bethesda Orthodontics has built a reputation around Dr. Sagafi's handling of difficult or previously mismanaged cases, including adults correcting shifting from earlier braces and patients transferring mid-treatment from other providers. Reviews also point to a smooth transition to Dr. Sagafi after a prior doctor's retirement, with the current doctor described as coordinating closely with surgeons and dentists on complex treatment plans. Beyond the technical cases, notes mention lingual braces and lasting a shorter time than expected for some, and staff who help families navigate insurance.

I had a great experience with Dr. Sagafi. I was an adult orthodontic patient undergoing orthognathic surgery (3-piece Le Fort I and lower-jaw reconstruction) so the orthodontic work required careful planning both before and after surgery. She was thoughtful, precise, and coordinated the process well. Her intelligence and care is obvious. I’m happy with my bite and the overall result, and I’d recommend her for adult or surgical orthodontic cases.

Very pleased with Dr. Negaar Sagafi and her entire team. I cannot stress enough how patient and accommodating Dr. Sagafi and her team have been. Remarkable is how she personally trains her assistants and is genuinely invested in their success. Additionally, the practice offers two convenient locations with ample parking. Both offices are bright, clean, and comfortable. I am looking forward to seeing my new smile!

I can see how this practice has such high reviews. Dr. Sagafi took her time to see every patient. Yes, I had to wait a bit, because there were others in front of me. But when she got to me, she also gave me the same caring, authentic self who was trying her best to be present with me and give me the best care she could. I felt that I could trust her opinion because she wasn't trying to promise me something that she could not do, or even would not recommend. She told me how complex a change would be, and how it could affect my tooth health. Thank you, Dr. Sagafi, for your patience, listening, honesty, and expertise during my consultation. You and your team were so professional, kind, and respectful I am grateful.

I had a wonderful experience with Bethesda Orthodontics. I am a late 40's adult and they walked me through all the options. I settled on the Brava hidden braces, which Dr. Sagafi is the leading provider in the area. Given my complex case they worked seemlesly with by dentist, periodontist and cosmetic dentist to achieve an incredible result. The staff is very kind and responsive. Thank you!
