Traditional Braces - Tried & True

While there are highly advanced orthodontic treatments that give you faster treatment, nearly invisible treatment, and maintenance-free treatment, there is a reason that traditional metal and clear braces are still around. Their process for aligning your smile and your bite is still incredibly effective. When discreet treatment isn’t a necessity, traditional metal braces are still a highly reliable and sometimes preferable treatment option for straightening teeth. If you’re interested in discreet treatment, clear braces offer the effectiveness you need and the discretion you desire.

Invisalign Hollywood

Invisalign treatment provides numerous benefits to make straightening your teeth as easy as smiling.

True discretion - Invisalign provides the ultimate discretion for straightening teeth – even more than clear braces, which still require a visible metal wire. With Invisalign, no one needs to know you are undergoing treatment unless you choose to tell them.
Improved comfort - Invisalign doesn't use brackets, which means the inside of your mouth won't get sore or raw from chafing brackets. Invisalign's smooth plastic aligners provide a comfortable experience throughout your treatment.
No diet restrictions - With metal or clear braces, you must avoid certain foods that can damage or break the brackets. With Invisalign, however, you simply remove your aligner while you eat. That means you can sink your teeth into whatever you like. From crunchy apples to sticky gum – the sky's the limit!
Easy oral hygiene - Braces require extra care to remove food particles that get caught in the brackets, and getting the floss under that wire can be tough. Once again, Invisalign's aligners come to the rescue. Remove your aligner to brush and floss as usual, and then pop it back into your mouth when you're done.
No impact on your hobbies - With braces, many musicians find they need to undergo an adjustment period during which they essentially relearn how to play their brass or wind instrument. Athletes also need to take extra steps to protect their teeth and appliances by wearing pricey, custom-made mouthguards for braces. Invisalign's removable aligners let you skip the inconvenience and keep enjoying your hobbies as usual.

Who Treats Hollywood Patients?

Hollywood patients are treated by Dr. Amir Dadgar-Yeganeh, a Board-Certified Orthodontist and Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics with academic ties to UCSF and UCLA. Dr. Amir has transformed over 15,000 smiles across the Los Angeles area and works closely with Hollywood’s actors, service-industry professionals, and families, building treatment plans that fit auditions, shifts, and school schedules alike.

About Hollywood, California

Hollywood is known worldwide for its glamorous image, but it’s also a real neighborhood with a rich history and a vibrant, working community, not just a backdrop for aspiring movie stars. Hollywood sits within Los Angeles, California, on land originally settled by the Tongva people; Spanish explorers arrived in 1769 and established a mission, and the area grew into a popular destination before Hollywood was officially incorporated as a city in 1903.

The Movie Capital

The movie industry took off in Hollywood in the early 1910s, with the first studio established in 1911 and the first feature-length film shot there, The Squaw Man, released in 1914. Hollywood has remained the center of the movie industry ever since.

Attractions and Everyday Life

Visitors come from around the world to see the Hollywood Sign, the Walk of Fame, and Hollywood Boulevard, along with landmarks like the TCL Chinese Theatre, the Hollywood Bowl, and the Dolby Theatre, home of the Academy Awards. Locally, residents have their pick of improv comedy venues, vintage taverns, and posh nightclubs, with Thai Town just nearby for some of the city’s best Thai food.

Weather in Hollywood, CA

Hollywood sees its most pleasant weather and thinnest crowds from late September to early November, with mid-November through mid-January offering an even quieter, lower-priced off-season. That same mild, dry stretch of the year is a popular window for starting orthodontic treatment before the holidays.

Orthodontic Care for Hollywood's On-Camera Lifestyle

Hollywood is home to working actors, hosts, and performers who need their smile ready for a callback or a set at any moment. Invisalign’s discretion is often the deciding factor for these patients, since it fits into auditions, self-tapes, and meetings without drawing attention the way visible braces might.

Awards season, which fills the Dolby Theatre each spring, is also a natural checkpoint many patients use to plan treatment around a specific event or premiere. For Hollywood’s service-industry workforce, from restaurant and hospitality staff along Hollywood Boulevard to studio and production crews, Invisalign’s removable design means no interruption to shift work, since trays come out for meals and go right back in.

What Hollywood Patients Ask Us

How much do braces or Invisalign cost in Hollywood?

Cost depends on case complexity and whether you choose braces or Invisalign. Traditional metal braces typically run $3,000 to $7,000 in the Los Angeles area, and Invisalign generally falls between $3,000 and $8,000. We accept most PPO insurance and offer flexible payment plans, with a full cost breakdown provided at your free consultation.

What age should my child first see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first screening by age 7, giving us time to monitor jaw growth and tooth eruption before deciding whether early treatment is needed.

Is Invisalign as effective as traditional braces?

For mild to moderate crowding, spacing, and bite issues, Invisalign works as well as braces. More complex cases often still need traditional braces for predictable results.

Can Invisalign stay discreet for auditions or on-camera work?

Yes. Many Hollywood patients work as actors, hosts, or in client-facing roles and choose Invisalign specifically because the clear aligners are nearly impossible to notice on camera or in person.

Do you treat both kids and adults in Hollywood?

Yes. Dr. Amir treats patients of all ages, from early Phase 1 screenings for children to full Invisalign and braces treatment for teens and adults.
