Our Philosophy
Orthodontics that
sees the whole you!
We believe great orthodontics begins long before treatment—it begins with listening.
Smile Suite Orthodontics was created from a simple belief: every patient deserves to feel seen, heard, and confidently guided through their smile journey.
As both a doctor and a patient, I've experienced how overwhelming healthcare decisions can feel when you don't have someone taking the time to truly listen, explain your options, and help you understand what's best for you.
That experience has shaped the way I practice orthodontics.
Today, every smile we design begins with understanding the person behind it. We take time to listen to your goals, evaluate your smile within the context of your face and overall oral health, and thoughtfully create a treatment plan that's uniquely yours.
Because we believe orthodontics should reflect the best version of you—not just straighten teeth.
Orthodontics that sees the whole you.
"We see the whole you, explain your options clearly, respect your time, and create smiles that transform more than appearance."— The Smile Suite Promise
What We Offer
Treatment options,
explained clearly.
Every patient is different. We take the time to understand your case, explain your options clearly, and make sure you have everything you need to choose with confidence.
Clear Aligners
Virtually invisible, removable trays that gently shift your teeth. Ideal for adults and teens who want flexibility and discretion.
Learn moreTraditional Braces
Precise, time-tested treatment for complex cases. Modern brackets are smaller and more comfortable than ever before.
Learn moreHidden Braces
The same precision as traditional braces — worn on the inside of your teeth, completely out of sight. A discreet option for adults who want effective treatment without any visible hardware.
Learn moreRetainers & Retention
Your smile deserves to last a lifetime. We build long-term retention plans so the work you put in stays put.
Learn moreEarly Orthodontics
Catching issues early can make treatment simpler later. We assess young patients with a whole-face, whole-growth perspective.
Learn moreAirway & Sleep
How you breathe affects everything — sleep, focus, energy, and development. Dr. Kim considers your airway as part of every evaluation, and offers targeted treatment for patients with snoring, sleep apnea, or airway concerns.

Common Questions
Everything you want
to know, honestly answered.
A real conversation — no pressure, no obligation. We'll talk through your goals, take a look at what's happening with your smile, and give you a clear picture of your options. You'll leave knowing exactly where you stand.
Every appointment at Smile Suite is built around you — someone is ready when you arrive, and you're never waiting. Dr. Kim also takes a whole-person approach, looking at your face, airway, and function, not just tooth alignment.
Every recommendation starts with a thorough evaluation — your bite, your face, your airway, your goals. Dr. Kim looks at the full picture before suggesting anything. The right plan isn't the most common one. It's the one that genuinely fits you.
Yes. We offer clear aligners alongside traditional braces. During your consultation, Dr. Kim will help you understand which treatment approach makes the most sense for your specific case.
We plan for retention from the beginning. Your smile is a long-term investment, and we take seriously our responsibility to help protect it for life — not just until your braces come off.
Early assessments can help catch issues that are much simpler to address in younger patients. Dr. Kim evaluates growth patterns, jaw development, and airway — not just teeth — to determine if early intervention is genuinely warranted.

The best way to get answers is to come in. Your free consultation is a conversation — no clinical tools, no pressure, just clarity.
