Orthodontics For Adults

Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for kids and teens—more adults than ever are choosing to straighten their teeth and improve their oral health. At Orthodontic Harmony in Briarcliff Manor, NY, we provide discreet, effective orthodontic solutions for adults of all ages.

Whether you missed out on treatment when you were younger, your teeth have shifted over time, or you’re simply ready for a change, Dr. Tracy Li Cheung offers expert care tailored to your goals, schedule, and lifestyle.

Why Adults Choose Orthodontics

Adults seek orthodontic treatment for many reasons, including:

  • Improving aesthetics and smile confidence
  • Correcting bite issues or shifting teeth
  • Making room for implants or restorative work
  • Preventing jaw pain or tooth wear
  • Enhancing long-term oral health

Our adult patients often tell us they wish they’d done it sooner—but it’s never too late to invest in your smile.

Discreet, Comfortable Options

We understand that adult patients often prefer subtle treatment options. That’s why we offer a range of advanced appliances designed to fit seamlessly into your lifestyle:

  • Clear Aligners: Virtually invisible and removable, aligners are perfect for busy professionals and parents.

  • Ceramic Braces: Tooth-colored brackets provide the reliability of braces with a more aesthetic appearance.

  • Metal Braces: Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever—an excellent choice for those seeking reliable and cost-effective treatment.

  • Limited Treatment Plans: If you only need minor corrections, we offer focused treatment options with shorter timelines.

  • Hybrid Treatment Options: Sometimes the best option is a combination of appliances types. Dr. Cheung will design your customized solution.

During your consultation, Dr. Cheung will assess your orthodontic needs and recommend the best option based on your goals and preferences.

Orthodontic Harmony has been treating my two children for the last 10 months. Doctor Cheung listened to my concerns about my child’s jaw alignment and tailored a plan of treatment that was specific to him and me! She did not jump into a treatment plan. Rather, she listened to our concerns as a family and made a plan that was best for us all! I have nothing but good things to say about both her and her staff.

Appointments were always prompt and easy to schedule,and the office was spotless and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel comfortable at every visit.

We're so grateful for the care and attention that was provided. Highly recommend!

Wow! Where can I begin? I’ll start by sharing that I had a cross bite, flared teeth caused by a previous orthodontic treatment done elsewhere and of course my teeth were misaligned. Upon my first consultation Dr, Tracy knew exactly what I needed to start. My top teeth were crowded and I needed a palette expander to create more room in my top teeth. After that I had braces to correct my misaligned teeth. Both Dr. Tracy and Ayxa were very patient with me, interested in my concerns and thorough with every step that was performed. Their level of knowledge and professionalism exceeded my expectations. My braces came off today and I cannot express enough my gratitude towards this great team whom literally has helped me regain my confidence. My smile looks amazing :) and I don’t have to feel insecure about my teeth ever again! Thank you Dr. Tracy and Ayxa for all of your hard work and dedication because it is clearly evident and I will be forever grateful!

My daughter had a wonderful experience here with Dr. Tracy Li Cheung. We highly recommend this practice as Dr. Cheung and Ayxa were always friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough in explaining what to expect and how to care for the palate expander and braces. My daughter just had her braces removed and her teeth look great! She is happy with the results and loves her smile!!

I highly recommend Dr. Tracy. She came highly recommended to me by friends, and we have had a wonderful experience working with her.
From the moment we walked in, the office staff was friendly, and Dr. Tracy took the time to explain everything clearly.
She is patient, professional, and has made my son's orthodontic treatment smooth and stress-free. We’ve already seen amazing results and feel so confident in her care.
