Proudly Offering
Clear Aligners

Metropolitan Orthodontics offers clear aligners—for a clearly amazing smile! With clear aligner treatment, you can achieve great results without the hassle of traditional metal wires and brackets. Plus, since the aligners are clear, no one will know that you have braces!

Let's get started!

“I showed up and just wow! I haven’t seen an orthodontist since I was a teenager and seriously appreciated the more adult centric, welcoming, and very clean environment. I immediately was greeted with my name, given a tour, and offered a beverage during my stay. All the staff were well mannered, excited to meet me, and treated me like a family member. The treatment discussion with Dr. Nelson and Marlene was more in depth than any other orthodontist team I’ve talked to and her plan was more informative, covered more of the preventative care after treatment (which most orthodontists don’t always cover) and the price was very competitive for the area! Best part, I got my digital photos the same day so my first set of aligners come in 4 weeks (quicker than any other orthodontist I’ve seen for consultation). Overall this place is a small practice that takes great care of their patients and treating everyone as a new family member. ”

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL! I truly love this place. They walked us through every single step and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. My daughter was so excited to get her braces and said everyone in the office made her feel comfortable like we were all family! I am a sucker for great customer service, and the staff always goes above and beyond! If you are looking for great service, smiling faces, and somewhere to just simply be comfortable on this Orthodontic Journey, this is truly the place to be. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!!! ”
~ Andrea

“It’s been a year since I started my treatment and Dr Nelson and her AMAZING team has been nothing but OUTSTANDING. The staff is extremely friendly, KIND and welcoming. Dr Nelson is very professional and particular. Marlene is unforgettable! I am getting GREAT results and I can’t thank enough Dr Nelson, Marlene and the staff for everything - all the patience and understanding. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Metropolitan Orthodontics. Thank you Dr Nelson & team! !”

“If you are considering any kind of orthodontic treatment, especially clear aligners, you MUST visit Dr. Nelson and her team at Metropolitan Orthodontics. Dr. Nelson's extensive experience is really apparent during the initial consultation. She explained (in a very digestible way) absolutely everything I wanted or needed to know about how to achieve the best results for straighter teeth.”
~ Kathleen

“This place is great! Dr. Nelson and her team might be the friendliest people I've ever met. The state of the art technology they use makes the experience great for my kids and honestly, I never thought we could afford orthodontics. They've made everything so easy and we can't wait to be customers for many years to come.”
~ Bill

“I drove all the way to Virginia from Delaware to have the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Nelson. From the time I walked into the office until I left I felt nothing less than comfortable, welcomed, and well taken care of. Her staff was amazing, the office was amazing I wish I could give her more stars because five does not do her justice!”
~ Alexis

“I am in love with Metropolitan Orthodontics! I highly recommend Dr. Nelson and her team, they are the absolute best! They truly care about my daughter and her well being as we start her orthodontic journey. My daughter will be begging me in the future to go back to their office so she can draw on their huge chalkboard wall! I am so glad we were introduced to this office.”
~ Nikki

“The office is so bright and welcoming. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Dr. Nelson is obviously very knowledgeable and knows how to treat patients. I was previously told I needed braces to correct a crooked tooth but Dr. Nelson said she could fix it with clear aligners! No braces thanks to Dr. Nelson!”
