Braces Reviews
The best experience anyone could have. Especially if it’s your first time getting braces. The staff is super nice very attentive. They educated me every step of the way to make sure I knew how to care of my braces and what was going to happen at every appointment. Never felt ignored. 2 years with braces and I always felt secured and knew my teeth were in safe hands even now that I am starting my retainer journey. I would recommend to anyone who asks.
Love love Labbe Orthodontist. Everyone at all locations are friendly, gives great customer service, and it is a family oriented business. Loved my outcome once k took my braces off, now my son has his braces and the bonding process was painless he said
My son has went to Labbe for 4+ years during his treatment plan. We’ve always had a great experience no matter which location we went to. The office and providers are accommodating and efficient. My son got his braces off today after a long process and we couldn’t be happier!
Spent 2+ years in wire braces with Labbe. Staff was always courteous, prompt and professional throughout all of my 20+ visits. Would recommend to anyone preparing to start their brace journey.
When another orthodontist wanted to pull 4 of my kids teeth because of crowding, I opted for a 2nd opinion. Dr Powers was that 2nd opinion who came up with a different plan. 2 years and 2 months of braces later and my kids braces came off today, no teeth were pulled and her teeth looking beautiful. Thank you Dr Powers.

Frequently Asked Questions About Braces
How much does braces treatment cost in Central Maryland?
The cost of braces depends on your specific needs, like how complex the alignment is and how long treatment will take. During your free consultation, we’ll give you a clear breakdown. We offer flexible payment plans and work with many insurance providers to make your dream smile affordable!
What is the best age to get an orthodontic evaluation?
It is never too late to love your smile! While we often see children and teens, many adults are choosing orthodontic treatment to improve their health and confidence. If your teeth and gums are healthy, you are a great candidate for treatment.
How do I take care of my braces?
Keeping your braces clean is the best way to keep your treatment on track. We recommend brushing after every meal to remove food trapped in your brackets. Using a floss threader and a fluoride rinse once a day will keep your gums healthy and your enamel strong.
How long will I need to wear braces?
Most patients wear braces for 12 to 24 months. Your timeline depends on your unique goals and how well you follow your orthodontist's instructions. We’ll keep you updated on your progress at every visit!
Do braces hurt?
You might feel some soreness right after getting your braces or after an adjustment. This is totally normal and usually only lasts a few days. You can use orthodontic wax for any irritation or take over-the-counter relievers to stay comfortable.
Can I still play sports or instruments with braces?
Absolutely! You don't have to miss out on the things you love. We recommend a mouthguard for contact sports to protect your teeth and your braces. If you play a wind instrument, there might be a short adjustment period, but you’ll be back to making music in no time.
