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 treatment provides numerous benefits to make straightening your teeth as easy as smiling.
Los Feliz 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 Los Feliz’s creative professionals, families, and longtime residents, building treatment plans that are only ever as involved as each case actually needs.
Los Feliz is one of Los Angeles’s most diverse neighborhoods, home to around 50,000 people from many different cultures. Its quaint bungalows, historic homes, and attractive apartment buildings sit along streets lined with charming restaurants and trendy boutiques, giving the area a vibrant, inclusive social scene.
The neighborhood is full of creative individuals and professionals living among quaint bungalows, attractive apartment buildings, and old historic homes, and the streets are lined with charming dining opportunities and trendy boutique retailers, with a vibrant social scene that is diverse and inclusive.
Long before Spanish immigrants arrived, the area was home to Native American communities the Spanish called rancherias, and Rancho Los Feliz was founded on the site of one of them. In 1795, Spanish Governor Pedro Fages granted the rancho to José Vicente Feliz, giving him jurisdiction over land now known as Los Feliz, Silver Lake, East Hollywood, and Griffith Park.
This hillside community sits between Hollywood and Silver Lake to the south and Atwater Village to the east, and has been home to several film and television studios over the years.
Los Feliz is a laid-back refuge for both established and aspiring artists, with classic bars sitting alongside trendy boutiques and cafés, the historic Vista Theatre (a 1923 movie palace), and two notable Frank Lloyd Wright buildings. Bordering Griffith Park, the neighborhood is popular with residents drawn to its hiking trails, Greek Theatre performances, and stargazing at Griffith Observatory.
Los Feliz enjoys a very mild climate, with an average temperature around 70 degrees Fahrenheit year-round, one of the many reasons residents love calling this part of Los Angeles home.
Los Feliz is home to working artists, musicians, and performers who need a treatment plan that fits their craft, not the other way around. Invisalign’s removable design means no adjustment period for musicians who play brass or wind instruments, and its discretion works well for anyone who needs to look polished for a gallery opening, a set, or a client meeting.
With Griffith Park right at the neighborhood’s edge, many patients here are also frequent hikers. Invisalign patients spending a day on the trail should keep a sturdy case on hand rather than wrapping trays in a napkin, and braces patients playing pickup sports at the park should ask about a properly fitted mouthguard.
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.
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.
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.
No. Dr. Amir recommends the least invasive option that gets a predictable, lasting result, whether that means a simple retainer, Invisalign, or full braces, and explains the reasoning behind every recommendation.
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.
