Izadi Orthodontics is a full-service orthodontist office providing comprehensive orthodontic services to patients in the Timonium, MD area. Our team of professionals is led by Board Certified Orthodontist Dr. Mohammad Izadi. We are dedicated to helping children and adults address concerns related to both the aesthetics and function of their smiles.
As a highly trained and experienced orthodontist, Dr. Izadi can evaluate the overall health and structure of your bite and recommend appropriate treatment to meet your needs and goals. We strive to help patients of all ages achieve an attractive, confident smile with appropriate orthodontic care.
Orthodontics plays a crucial role in establishing a stable oral foundation by repositioning the jaw and teeth for a natural and functional bite. Izadi Orthodontics recommends that young children visit for an evaluation around the age of 7, providing the opportunity to intercept any developmental problems related to the structure of the jaw or positioning of the teeth.
We also offer full services for adult patients who have struggled with the appearance or comfort of their smile or who may be experiencing an orthodontic relapse. Cosmetic concerns, including flared-out teeth, tooth gaps, and underbites, are just some of the problems that orthodontics can effectively treat. Addressing these concerns will also improve your oral health and the integrity of your smile.
Dr. Mohammad Izadi is a certified Invisalign provider. This clear braces system is a discreet and perfect teeth straightening treatment for adult patients. Many of our older patients prefer not to endure the hassles and discomfort associated with traditional metal braces. We work with patients to make treatment with clear aligners as easy and affordable as possible.

Orthodontic Services FAQs
We offer a variety of orthodontic services to take care of all of your needs. Learn more.
At what age should a child first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation around age 7. At this age, orthodontists can identify potential problems with jaw growth or bite development early. Early detection does not always mean immediate treatment, but it allows for planning. Some issues are easier to correct when treated in childhood.
Can adults benefit from orthodontic services?
Yes, adults can benefit greatly from orthodontic treatment. Modern options like clear aligners and discreet braces make it easier for adults to seek care without feeling self-conscious. Orthodontic treatment improves oral health by correcting bite problems that may cause tooth wear or jaw pain. Many adults also appreciate the confidence boost of a straighter smile.
What is the difference between an orthodontist and a general dentist?
A general dentist provides routine care such as cleanings, fillings, and exams, while an orthodontist specializes in correcting bite and alignment problems. Orthodontists receive additional years of training beyond dental school to focus on jaw and teeth movement. While dentists may offer limited orthodontic services, orthodontists have advanced expertise. This makes them the best choice for complex alignment issues.
Will insurance cover orthodontic services?
Many dental insurance plans provide partial coverage for orthodontic treatment, especially for children under 18. Some plans may also cover a portion of adult orthodontics. Coverage varies widely, so it’s important to review your policy or consult your provider.
Do I still need to see my dentist during orthodontic treatment?
Yes, you should continue regular dental checkups and cleanings. Orthodontists focus on alignment, but your general dentist manages overall oral health. Braces and aligners can trap food particles, increasing the risk of cavities and gum issues. Routine dental care ensures your teeth and gums remain healthy throughout treatment.
What happens if I don’t get orthodontic treatment when needed?
Delaying or avoiding orthodontic care can lead to worsening alignment and bite problems. This may cause difficulties chewing, increased tooth wear, or gum disease due to cleaning challenges. Jaw pain, speech issues, and reduced confidence can also develop. Early treatment often prevents these long-term consequences.
