Services
We look forward to meeting you at your first visit to our Belmont office. During your first visit, we will help you get acquainted to our practice with an office tour. Next, Dr. Melita will perform a careful examination of your teeth, jaws, and facial structure. Finally, we will discuss your orthodontic treatment options and costs.
Invisalign(R) is a great choice for our patients who are searching for a discreet way to straighten their smiles. Rather than using metal brackets like traditional braces, the Invisalign system uses a series ofvirtually undetectable, custom designed aligners to straighten your smile. Each set of aligners is designed to make small changes to the alignment of the teeth.
Now teens don't have to worry about embarrassing metal braces in their yearbook photos or Facebook profiles - introducing Invisalign(R) Teen! Invisalign(R) Teen is the clear way to straighten teeth without metal braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
The Invisalign(R) system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and achieve the smile you've always dreamed of. Using advanced 3-D computer-imaging technology, Invisalign depicts your complete treatment plan, from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position. Then a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth - and your teeth only - to move them little by little.
Now that you have your braces, how do you take care of them? It's important for you to know how to properly take care of your braces throughout your entire orthodontic treatment. Don't worry; you'll be eating popcorn and snacking on potato chips again in no time! However, before you can start enjoying some of the treats you love, you will need to take special care to avoid any foods that could damage your new appliances.

I am posting the review for the work done to my son:
I am extremely happy with the orthodontics results of my son. My son's teeth were challenging. We have talked to three orthodontists before we decided to work with Dr. Melita. Dr. Melita's team/offer has the combination of the characteristics we were looking for: knowledge and experience, friendly doctor and staff, patience and understanding, reasonable price, environment designed with details to make patients comfortable. Dr. Melita explained the treatment plan very thoroughly to us. It is an easy process of the treatment. My son just go to

I highly recommend Dr. Melita’s practice. I just wrapped up treatment and could not be happier with my new smile. The team is very skilled, professional and courteous. And the experience was a breeze: I was able to start treatment promptly, appointments ran like well rehearsed pit stops, and the overall duration was just as long as was initially advised. Thanks to Dr. Melita and her entire team for a wonderful experience!

Our child had a great experience with Belmont Orthodontics and the Invisalign liners. Dr. Melita and her staff are excellent; they do great work and also communicated well with us. When our child had to have an MRI, Dr. Melita worked with us to schedule a quick removal of the metal buttons for safety. Scheduling was easy and their COVID protocols made us feel comfortable about appointments.

Highly recommend! Dr. Melita is patient, and insightful. Cara and Elaine are lovely! Also special thanks to Alison for taking the stress off rewiring! It took us a while to get to a place where we were comfortable with it, but it was just a matter of finding the right person to do it:) Alison is super good with kids!

Dr. Melita and her entire staff at Belmont Orthodontics are excellent. Dr. Melita gave me very sound advice for my 7-year-old daughter, was sensitive to her anxiety about dental work, explained everything to me clearly (during which time her assistant Elaine kept my kids entertained and not eavesdropping), and even helped me to avoid additional insurance charges by taking care of some imaging on-the-spot. I felt zero pressure or "up-charging," which I know can happen in other practices. In fact, she referred me to another oral surgery for my daughter's tooth extraction--even though Dr. Melita had

I just finished my treatment at Belmont Orthodontics and they are such a great group! Friendly and accommodating front desk staff and Dr. Melilta is very talented. Overall they were great and were very accommodating during the pandemic. Plus you get a gift at the end of treatment :) This group goes above and beyond- and still puts patients / customers first. Highly recommend.

We are very happy with both the results of our son's orthodontic treatment and also with the whole experience. Dr. Melita and all her staff are so competent, responsive, and kind. Their safety protocols made us feel safe and we are grateful that our son's treatment has been able to continue without any delay. Also, everything was explained to my son very clearly and they motivated him to do his own part to make the treatment successful. Dr. Melita's team also went above and beyond to work with the pediatric dentist to schedule coordinated cleanings. We are grateful to Dr. Melita and all the team
