At Chang Orthodontics, we offer expert orthodontic care for every stage of life—children, teens, and adults. For children, early evaluations around age 7 play a key role in identifying and addressing potential issues before they become more serious. Early treatment may not always involve braces; it can include monitoring growth, guiding jaw development, and creating the right conditions for permanent teeth to come in properly.
While orthodontics can dramatically improve appearance and boost self-esteem, the benefits go far beyond aesthetics. Properly aligned teeth and a balanced bite make brushing and flossing easier, helping to prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and uneven wear. Straight teeth aren’t just about looks—they’re essential for long-term oral health.
Invisalign is a modern, discreet way to straighten teeth and correct a wide range of orthodontic issues. It can effectively treat crowding, spacing, open bites, overbites, underbites, and other alignment concerns—all without the use of metal braces. Each set of custom-made aligners gradually shifts your teeth for a healthier, more confident smile.

Your Smile Journey Begins
What to Expect at Your First Visit with Chang Orthodontics
I can not express enough what an amazing choice Dr. Chang’s office has been for our family. We were referred to the office from our dentist for orthodontic care for our teenage daughter. From the first visit we felt seen and heard and were given options for the care necessary for her. So far we are one year into her treatment and the timeframe and expectations have been on point and the results have been more than we could have expected. The ease of scheduling from the front office down to the care and service we have received from the entire team has been outstanding. We are seen so quickly and the office moves so efficiently that her appointments are swift and we can go on with our day. The office is always calm and settling but also you can hear the laughter of a happy staff and happy patients behind it.
My daughter always tells me how wonderful Dr. Chang is and how he always pumps up the good work she is doing which encourages her to stay on track with her responsibilities at home. I can not say enough great things about the entire team and would recommend them time and again. I know we will need orthodontic care for our youngest when it comes time and I know where we will be going for SURE!
I recently visited Chang Orthodontics after finding out about them right here on Google +.
I filled out their online registration forms online before taking my young nephew to their offices. After about a 5 minute wait we started our consultation. Absolutely couldn’t believe how quickly we were able to see the orthodontist! When I had braces I usually had to wait up to an hour to see my dentist.
Anyways, during our consultation Dr. Chang was super informative and helpful. He gave us several options as to how we could possibly approach correcting my nephews misaligned teeth, all the while keeping the youngster entertained. No doubt in my mind that we’ll be choosing Dr. Chang. Thanks Chang Orthodontics!
I had a great experience with Dr Chang and his team. I got Invisalign treatment here, and recently completed my final followup visit, where Dr Chang showed me the “before and after” photos of my teeth.
What a difference! I’m so glad I got treatment here. And my only regret was not starting treatment earlier in life. Dr Chang is an expert in his field. He always made me laugh and made me feel at ease whenever I came in for an appointment.
The office itself is very clean and organized. And everyone who works in this office is exceptionally professional and friendly. I highly recommend Dr Chang for orthodontic treatment.
Our family has had the pleasure of working with Dr. Chang for both orthodontic treatment (my child) and the fitting and construction of a custom nightguard (myself).
I have had experiences with many different medical/dental professionals in numerous settings over the years, and I can say without exaggeration that Dr. Chang and his staff are second to none when it comes to care, skill, professionalism, and convenience. He has my highest recommendation!
Got my braces here during my senior year in high-school. Rough dealing with it but the staff here and Dr. Chang were super chill and really helped me out. I was less than punctual to appointments and I was not good with making appointments. Regardless, Dr. Chang and the staff here were so hospitable and helped me keep my appointments.
Dr. Chang even asked me about my mental health issues when he didn’t see me for a couple months. His compassion was astounding and something I never would have expected in an orthodontist office. 10/10, if you’re in the Bay area, get your braces done with Dr. Chang.
Highly recommend! I needed an orthodontist to fix my crooked teeth (didn’t wear my retainer enough after braces as a teenager). I knew I wanted Invisalign, and so glad I went to Dr Chang and his team. From the minute I stepped in the office, I knew this was a great choice. I had lots of questions and was really nervous about the process, and Dr Chang was a pro with answering everything in a way I could understand and not making me feel dumb about anything. What a bonus that everyone at the office was friendly, knowledgeable and worked with my schedule! Checkins were easy, appointments were on time which helped me get in and out fast.
We’ve gone to Dr. Chang a number of times for consults on both my kids teeth. My son has a very complex ortho situation. His advice has been invaluable each time we’ve seen him. Highly recommend.
If I could give Dr. Chang 100 stars I would! He treated my daughter, and his kindness is unsurpassed. She is so happy with her smile, and so are we as her parents. Everyone in Dr. Chang’s office is so nice and friendly and professional. This was such a great experience, and now I’m going to request a consultation with Dr. Chang for my own teeth. Thank you Dr. Chang!
