Orthodontic Before and After Results in Escondido

Reviewed by Dr. Cyrus Aghdam and Dr. Neelab Anwar, board-certified orthodontists at Happier Smiles Orthodontics in Escondido, CA.

Happier Smiles Orthodontics has transformed smiles of every kind, from severe crowding and crossbites to overbites and open bites, using braces, clear aligners, expanders, and early treatment. The results below are all real patients treated at our Escondido office. Individual results vary based on each patient’s needs and diagnosis.

There is nothing quite like seeing a real transformation. Every smile below started with a first visit, a personalized plan, and a board-certified orthodontist guiding the way. From young children in early treatment to adults finishing what they always wanted to start, these are the kinds of results we create for North County families every day.
