About Seaport Smiles
Open bites and underbites resolved without jaw surgery, alongside a heavily Invisalign-focused caseload, mark reviews of this Fort Point practice.
Seaport Smiles handles an unusually high volume of Invisalign cases, and reviews describe complex corrections — open bites, underbites, severe crowding — sometimes resolved without jaw surgery through coordinated care with an oral surgeon. The office is repeatedly noted for its modern setup, including onsite 3D scanning and printing, in a space some compare to a boutique hotel lounge. Several reviewers also mention finishing treatment ahead of schedule or on a realistic timeline the orthodontists set from the start, using models, photos, and drawings to walk through each phase.

I was referred here to get my wisdom teeth removed. The receptionist confirmed that they could do this and scheduled a consult 2 weeks in the future. I got a call 24 hours before my appointment telling me they do not do this service.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Ella and her team. I was initially told I might need jaw surgery, and Dr. Ella was able to develop a treatment plan that got me amazing results without going that route. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who truly knows what she’s doing, Dr. Ella is it.
