About Rad Orthodontics - Bethesda

Dr. David Rad is noted for pacing treatment to a child's jaw development, and clear aligner cases here outpace what's typical at similar offices.

Rad Orthodontics draws heavily on Invisalign and clear aligner cases, along with a steady stream of phase one treatment for younger children and retainer work after treatment ends. Dr. David Rad is frequently described as thorough and willing to delay treatment until it's appropriate, and reviews note multiple Rockville/Bethesda locations that make transferring between offices or getting a quick wire trim easier. Scheduling tends to run on time, and the office has helped patients who moved away complete or repair their retainers remotely. A smaller number of reviews raise concerns about billing and pricing.

Rad Orthodontics was very professional and easy to work with. Scheduling was easy, there was no wait when we arrived, and my daughter’s retainers fit perfectly. Highly recommend.

I just got my braces off this past Monday so this review encompasses my experience from the past 18 months. For the past year and a half, I have come in about every 6 weeks and I honestly don’t think I have had any negative experiences to note. All of the staff have been nothing but friendly and professional, especially the front desk staff. The techs and orthodontists (I have been seen by both Dr. Rad and Dr. Le) are always prepared. Either their memory is impeccable or their documentation is very thorough because I always feel like I am coming in where we left off. They also have very convenient locations for anyone living in the Rockville/Bethesda area and I love that even though I started my treatment at one location, the move to another location was pretty seamless. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but once all of my retainer follow ups are complete, I think I’ll actually miss going into the office. Overall, I highly recommend this practice. The orthodontists, techs, and other staff are top tier. If you are considering this practice for your child’s orthodontic needs, I can attest that they are also good with children just by witnessing some of the interactions around me during my appointments. Finally, just wanted to note that my appointments were always pretty quick after getting my braces on but they didn’t feel rushed. I was almost always seen on time as well.

Services, staff, flexibility , kindness and follow-up all are great, but the results for my 18 years old after removing the braces wasn’t good at all, very disappointing, he started the treatment when he was 16. the use of the expanders caused a wider larger smile than before, changes on the face look, we regret that we opted for that option, now we can’t go back! We could have stick to the traditional option, give time to the natural growth or remove the unnecessary teeth to create space.
