Professional
At Graber Orthodontics, we believe building relationships with our patients forms the foundation of our practice. Both Drs. Lee and Katie Graber are ABO certified – a certification achieved by less than 25% of all orthodontists and the only orthodontist specialty certifying board recognized by the American Dental Association. This certification is in addition to their licensure as Dental Specialists in Orthodontics by the State of Illinois.
Our staff is comprised of a team of highly qualified health care professionals, who frequently attend continuing education courses to keep up with the latest technologies and procedures in orthodontics. Our support staff is dedicated to our patients—and some of them have been with us for over 20 years!
Patient Focused
Each patient is presented with all available options and we keep you informed of your or your child's progress at your appointments. At Graber Orthodontics, we feel you should be informed and spend time on any questions you have. Many of our patients are adults and we understand the needs and concerns our adult patients have in regards to orthodontic care. We take these into consideration and strive to make adult treatment as comfortable and convenient as possible
Modern
Graber Orthodontics puts your safety first with low exposure digital X-rays and state-of-the-art sterilization procedures. The doctors use all-new appliances and customized indirect bonding, which offer more precision brace placement and greater patient comfort. Their team includes a full-time lab technician who fabricates the majority of orthodontic appliances for optimum internal quality control and efficiency. Drs. Lee and Katie Graber also collaborate on care with other board-certified dental and medical specialists, including an oral surgeon who places temporary anchorage devices (TADs). TADs can help correct more severe bite problems without the need for extractions or surgery.
Over the years, technology has changed orthodontics for the better! The orthodontic industry has created newer, smaller, more comfortable appliances that can even reduce treatment time. We are proud to offer the "best in braces," technologically advanced appliances matched to your needs and goals. These include traditional ceramic braces, miniature metal braces, new lower friction appliances as well as Invisalign® and SureSmile® customized robotic archwire technology.
Fun
Each month we reward patients for excellence in oral hygiene. Prizes range from blockbuster gift cards, free ice cream, DVD's, MP3 players and more. In addition, if you wear your Graber Orthodontics t-shirt to school or work and then to our office (the one you get when you have your braces placed) you will receive an additional prize!
We also offer a game room with a Wii and Xbox as well as individual movie screens at each orthodontic chair - now showing three different G-rated movies per day! In addition, for our adult patients and parents we often have fresh Starbucks® coffee on hand and wi-fi.
