We help families feel seen, supported, and excited about their smiles with flexible care and people-first orthodontics that meet you where you are with locations in Linden, Highland, and Flushing.
Busy schedules? Complicated co-parenting? We’re built for flexibility, early appointments, virtual check-ins, and zero guilt if you need to reschedule.
We treat every patient like family. No shame, no pressure, just a team who’s all in on helping you feel confident in your smile.
We work with all types of budgets to make treatment doable even when life throws you curveballs.
If you’re a parent, you know the feeling: juggling appointments, financial decisions, and trying to do right by your kid, even when it’s tough. Maybe your dentist recommended someone else. Maybe your first experience wasn’t great. And now you’re searching for an office that just gets it, one that feels like it’s on your side.
We see you. And you’re in the right place.
We don’t just straighten teeth, we support the full journey. Our treatments are flexible, effective, and designed for real life.

Dr. Nicole Wax is more than an orthodontist; she’s a mom, a small business owner, and a community builder who genuinely loves helping people feel confident. At Wax Ortho, you’re not just a case number. You’re a human being with a whole life outside of your smile, and we care about all of it.
You’ll feel the difference the moment you walk through the door. (Hint: It smells like good coffee!)
