City: Frisco
Looking for an orthodontist in Frisco? You are spoiled for choice, from Frisco Square and Starwood to Phillips Creek Ranch and The Trails. This page helps you narrow it down.

How much do braces and Invisalign cost in Frisco?
Metal & ceramic braces
The workhorse option, and the most flexible for complex cases.
Invisalign & clear aligners
Discreet and removable. Popular with Frisco teens and adults.
Do Medicaid and CHIP cover braces in Texas?
Rarely, and only for kids. Texas Medicaid and CHIP cover orthodontics for patients under 21 through Texas Health Steps, but only when braces are truly medically necessary, such as a cleft palate or another serious functional problem. Routine or cosmetic alignment is not covered, and every case needs prior authorization. If you think your child may qualify, ask an orthodontist to evaluate and submit for approval.
Braces, Invisalign, or clear aligners?
Kids and teens often do great with traditional braces, especially for bigger bite corrections, while plenty of Frisco adults lean toward Invisalign because it is barely noticeable at work and comes out at dinner. Clear aligners, including newer systems like Angel Aligners, sit in between. The right pick depends on your case, your routine, and your budget, and a solid consultation will walk you through all three.
Private practice or corporate group?
It is the question almost nobody tells you to ask, and it shapes your experience more than you would expect. At a privately owned office, the orthodontist treating your kid is usually the same person whose name is on the door and whose reputation rides on the result. Corporate-backed offices can be a fine fit too, often with longer hours and several locations, though their plans sometimes follow company playbooks. There is no universally right answer, only the one that fits your family.
Elate Orthodontics
A strong example of privately owned, done right in Frisco. Husband-and-wife orthodontists Dr. Kevin Baharvand, a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, and Dr. Julia Kang, both trained at Boston University, run two Frisco offices, West Frisco and North Frisco, plus a location in The Colony. They treat the full range, from early and teen cases to Invisalign, Angel Aligners, and complex airway-focused and surgical care. Learn more at elateorthodontics.com.

How to pick the right Frisco orthodontist
Start with board certification. Becoming a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics is voluntary, so the orthodontists who earn it are showing they went the extra mile. From there, ask how consultations work, what happens when a bracket pops off the night before a game, and whether they actually offer the treatment you want. Then trust your gut after the first visit.
