Best orthodontist services in Westlake Village
Most people visit a general dentist regularly to clean their teeth or treat gum disease. However, dentistry is a very broad field, and general dentists can’t resolve all issues. People with more complex issues and irregularities might have to go to an orthodontist, especially those who have had issues with their teeth and jaws since birth.
If you are looking for an orthodontist in Westlake Village, we can diagnose, assess, treat, and prevent various jaw and teeth irregularities, helping you recognize your current problems and fixing them. We can also predict potential future issues and recommend the best course of action.
When do you really need an orthodontist, and what can these professionals help you with?
Issues orthodontists work with
Orthodontists can help people of all ages, and they often treat irregularities such as:
- Crowded teeth (not enough space between teeth)
- Spacing problems (too much space between teeth)
- Deep bite or overbite (top front teeth overlap bottom teeth vertically)
- Overbite or overjet (the bottom and top front teeth have an unnatural horizontal overlap)
- Openbite (no overlap between lower and upper front teeth)
- Crossbite (upper teeth are inside lower teeth)
These are just some of the issues orthodontists can treat, but the most common problems people have are crowded and spaced teeth. In most cases, general dentists can recognize alignment issues during routine checks, and they should refer patients to orthodontists.
However, it’s also a good idea to contact us if you’re searching for an orthodontist in Westlake Village to get a thorough examination from a professional orthodontist and get specialized treatment if necessary.
WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER SEEING AN ORTHODONTIC SPECIALIST IN WESTLAKE VILLAGE
If you’ve had issues with your bite, your teeth don’t come into proper contact, or you feel that your teeth or jaw are crooked, it’s best to visit our specialist orthodontist in Westlake Village. Your general dentist can notice some issues, but they can’t help you with these problems.
Still, a general dentist can do some orthodontic work like the Invisalign treatment. Orthodontic issues aren’t necessarily severe, but they require early treatment, or they could complicate things. The more you prolong your visit, the more problems you’ll have, and even experience significant pain.
What to expect during your visit
When you visit our orthodontist specialist for a consultation, you are likely to go through these steps:
- A thorough oral exam
- Get imagery (photos) of your smile and face
- Get a dental x-ray
- A 360-degree or panoramic x-ray of your head and face
- Impression for creating teeth molds
These tests will help the orthodontist understand how to proceed with treatment and choose the best course for your dental health. From there, you might get dental appliances or braces to help with your issues or get a surgery recommendation in case of a severe defect.
Schedule your consultation today
Dental health is vital. The longer you postpone your visit, the worse it could get. Contact us today, and we’ll book a consultation with one of our orthodontists as soon as possible. There’s nothing scary about an exam – the scariest thing is ignoring your condition until it becomes severe.

Patients with reasons to smile
Dr. Lee and his team are exceptional!!! Their process is so streamlined and proficient, making for a peaceful and enjoyable experience at every appointment and orthodontic stages of care.I would recommend Dr. Lee and the team to everyone in need of care.
Dr. Lee and his staff are all so amazing! I just finished my Invisalign and I couldn’t have had a better experience. Dr. Lee was amazing and super friendly including his whole staff.
Dr. Lee was recommended to me by two friends who had used him for getting Invisaline to straighten their teeth. I wish I hadn’t waited so long! Dr. Lee definitely knows his stuff:) The staff is also very kind and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and don’t wait as long as I did!
Dr.Lee and staff are amazing! Professional, courteous, thoughtful and thorough. Highly recommend
Everyone is nice at the office. Dr.Lee is kind and knowledgeable. Definitely recommended!
I have both kids under Dr. Lee's care and his staff has helped my 10 year old and 13 year old be responsible invisaline users. They smile more now that their teeth are more organized. The staff is so friendly and they explain everything clearly. Highly recommend.
We love Dr. Lee and the whole office staff! They are always so friendly and helpful and we never have to wait too long to be seen.
My Son and I are both patients at this office.I could not be happier with my new smile. Dr Thomas Lee and his team have boosted my confidence tremendously. The kindness, cheerfulness, and efficiency in this office have made my entire treatment process pleasant and peaceful. I am firmly confident that you are one of the best orthodontic care teams in world! Highly recommended!
Dr. Lee and his staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. They are always positive and helpful. I’m in my 50th and after getting some dental work done including implants I end up with misaligned teeth and jaw. It is not an easy fix but Dr. Lee is working very patiently with me to fix the problem. I am experiencing big improvement each and every month.
I am happy to continue the 5-Star streak for Dr. Lee and his staff. Dr. Lee was recommended by my Dentist, who takes her kids to him for their orthodontic work. The fact that a fellow Dentist trusts Dr. Lee’s judgment over other competition, was enough assurance for me that he is the best. My son went from having an expander to now braces, and I have seen his teeth move beautifully without needing any teeth pulled. We love Thousand Oaks Orthodontics and are happy to have found them.
Great great experience. The team is super helpful and sweet and Dr.Lee pays great attention to detail. Very very very happy with their team.
Dr. Lee is the best!! I have a new perfect smile thanks to him and all of his team in the office. Service is incredible !!The best of the best!
