One Office, Every Stage

Creating Confident Smiles at Every Age

A straighter smile can support confidence and long-term oral health at any age. At Discovery Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics, we offer orthodontic treatment for children, teens, and adults, along with flexible payment plans to help make care more manageable.

Understanding Orthodontics

Orthodontics focuses on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. We provide treatment for children, teens, and adults, from early orthodontic interventions and teen treatments to adult braces and Invisalign. Every treatment plan considers tooth alignment, bite function, facial balance, and long-term oral health.

The Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic care can support oral and overall health for children, teens, and adults in several ways:

  • Improves bite function and speech
  • Enhances facial appearance and self-confidence
  • Reduces risk of tooth decay and gum disease
  • Prevents excessive wear on tooth enamel
  • Alleviates jaw pain and headaches caused by misalignment
  • Creates space for erupting permanent teeth
  • Reduces the risk of injury to protruding teeth

How Does Orthodontic Care Support Oral Health at Every Age?

Properly aligned teeth and jaws contribute to improved oral health. Straight teeth are easier to clean and maintain, reducing the patient’s risk for tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues. A balanced bite also supports proper chewing and can reduce strain on the jaw joints.

Our Carlsbad team is committed to improving oral health and confidence for children, teens, and adults.

My brother has down syndrome and he is incredibly nervous at any doctor appointment. But he connects so beautifully with everyone there from the moment he walks in and we check in at the front desk. Im so grateful for Gaby’s patience and humor through his nerves. It makes all the difference in making his cleaning a fun experience. And Dr. Fazeli is so gracious, sweet and calming. I really feel like its a whole team experience. And my brother leaves happy every time. I couldn't be happier with this office.

I’ve had such a wonderful experience bringing my children to Discovery Children’s Dentistry. The entire staff is incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming, which makes such a difference when bringing kids to the dentist. They go above and beyond to make my children feel comfortable and at ease during every visit. Dr. Fazeli is very kind, gentle, knowledgeable, and take the time to explain everything clearly. My kids actually look forward to their appointments, which says a lot! I’m so grateful to have found a pediatric dental office we can trust. Highly recommend to any parent looking for excellent dental care for their children.

I take my kids, ages 5 and 9, to Discovery and have had a great experience both with the cleanings as well as a cavity filling. They make my young kids feel comfortable from start to finish which is not always the case. The dentist is kind and thorough.

Dr. Fazeli and her staff were so great with my son who unfortunately had an appliance placed incorrectly causing him a great deal of discomfort. They fit him in promptly and were so gentle and made the removal so easy! I also really appreciated that she took the time to answer my questions after since our son is a more complicated case than most. The office also had a nice play area and a fun prize at the end which my son loved!

Dr. Afsoon Fazeli is kind and knowledgeable dentist. She was patient with all my questions and gave me a lot of helpful information. Her transparency helped me to understand my son’s oral situation so that I felt very informed moving forward with our next steps.
