About Ironbound Braces
Dr. Michael Duong takes on complex overbite and crowding cases, with many patients finishing braces or Invisalign on or ahead of schedule.
Reviews point to strong treatment outcomes, including corrections of severe overbites and crowding, and a number of patients finishing on or before their promised timeline. Dr. Duong is noted for handling difficult bite cases himself and for laying out options like Invisalign versus braces rather than steering patients toward one. Several long-term patients have returned with their own children, and multiple families with several kids in treatment appear among the reviews.

I’ve had the absolute best experience with Dr. Duong and the entire Ironbound Orthodontics team. I began my orthodontic treatment in June 2023 with significant crowding that had made me feel insecure about my smile for years. From day one, the staff treated me with genuine care, professionalism, and patience. I was always greeted with a warm smile, and every visit left me feeling supported and well taken care of. Now that my braces have been removed, I can confidently say the transformation is incredible. I have the biggest, brightest smile — and I truly feel brand new. It’s all thanks to Dr. Duong and his amazing team. I highly recommend Ironbound Orthodontics to anyone seeking exceptional orthodontic care that is both professional and affordable. They changed my smile, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

The best ever!! I found this place back in 2020 where I had my treatment done. I had a severe overbite from sucking my thumb and now they are completely transformed. Treatment took 2 years..now I’m back with my daughter for her treatment. Not only is Dr Duong amazing his assistants are also A1. Go check him out.
