I can't recommend Dr. Kwon and his team enough! From the moment you walk into the office, you feel welcomed and well taken care of. The entire staff is so friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about making sure you have the best experience possible. Dr. Kwon is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. He takes the time to explain everything and answer any questions, which made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. You can tell he's passionate about his work and truly cares about his patients' results. The office itself is clean, modern, and very comfortable -- you can tell a lot of thought went into creating a warm, stress-free environment. If you're looking for an orthodontist in the La Canada area, I would absolutely recommend coming here. They are the best, and I'm so glad I found them! read more

We can't say enough about Dr. Kwon and his amazing staff! My older daughter completed her orthodontic treatment a few years ago and my youngest daughter is currently nearing the end of her treatment. From the very beginning, we have had nothing but the most positive experiences with Dr. Kwon. He is attentive, thorough, and ensures that each of his patients receives the utmost care. Dr. Kwon will take the time to explain his process and ensure that all patients feel that they are in good hands. The staff is friendly and professional, and will always try to accommodate my busy working schedule when scheduling appointments. The office is very welcoming to people of all ages, and I especially love when they decorate for holidays and special occasions. A firm believer in supporting his community, Kwon Orthodontics will often generously give back to various organizations. Even if you do not live near the La Canada area, such as myself, it is definitely worth it to choose Dr. Kwon as your orthodontist! Dr. Kwon is not only highly skilled but has excellent beside manners. I am so pleased with the treatment results that my daughters received, which exceeds our expectations. We thank Dr. Kwon for their beautiful smiles and highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch orthodontic care. read more

Prior to going to Dr. Kwon , we looked into a few other orthodontics to compare prices and contract requirements. I am pleased to say that I made the right choice. Not only does Dr.Kwon have amazing knowledge and bedside manners , he help my son understand the process and importance of wearing Invisalign's in the simplest yet most educational way. The staff is outstanding and the office is very organized and clean. I'm so grateful we didn't have to wait for impressions and another month for the Invisalign's , he has the machine that makes them in house and we got them the same day ! read more

I stongly suggest Doctor Kwon and Office. The Doctor and Staff are very professional. They are friendly, helpful and caring. If possible I would rate them 10 stars. I got my braces done 5 years ago and they are still in excellent condition. Additionally, my two children are almost finished with their braces and have had a wonderful experience. read more

My children are very difficult when it comes to dentist/ortho/doctor appointments. Surprisingly, three of my children were so comfortable letting Dr. Kwon treat them. He takes his time to make sure the children are not nervous. My kids denied treatment a couple of times but the staff and Dr. Kwon waited patiently until they were ready. I would highly recommend this place! read more

I have been an Invisalign patient of Dr. Kwon's for the past couple years, and I'm so pleased with my experience. Starting from the consultation with very detailed explanations from Dr. Kwon to my present-day progress, I have only great things to say. read more

Out of all the ortho offices I visited all throughout Glendale and La Canada Kwon Ortho was the best office I visited and I'm so happy I did my treatment here. What initially got my attention was how clean and how professional it was. To begin with, the root of my teeth were VERY short and Dr Kwon was really attentive with that and VERY CAREFUL and now I'm sitting here with perfect teeth thanks to him and his staff. The Dr explained everything to me every step of the way. I recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a great orthodontist and getting a great smile. I honestly couldn't be happier with the results read more

I agree with the 5 STAR REVIEWS! Dr. Kwon is professional, informative, and one of the best orthodontists in the area! The office staff is awesome and there is never a long wait (no more than 5 minutes). I am very impressed. It was recommended by all of our friends and my daughter's experience is seamless. My other daughter will be getting braces there next year! Jenny L's one star review (2014) is ridiculous. Dr. Kwon's father, Dr. Kwon is a highly regarded orthodontist in Korea. He is Korean, and there are plenty of people there that speak English that can translate. It's affordable and their consultation is free. read more

Kwon Orthodontics does excellent work and provides an excellent value. We just finished up my son's braces. Today he received his retainer. They take the before and after photos. Here is the after photos. It would have been fun to see how tall (or short) my son was in the first photo. I strongly recommend KWON ORTHODONTICS. Dr. Kwon is excellent, takes time to answer all your questions and provides great ongoing care. And, the staff is also friendly and warm. Emily & Lydia have been so good and have gone the extra mile to ensure we had everything we need. Thank you so much! I'm glad my son is done, but I'll also miss coming in to say hi and catch up for a few minutes. I might have to swing by just to say hi. :) read more

Kwon Orthodontics - z and Dr. Kwon - Orthodontists Near Me - La Canada, California

I came here for Invisalign and the service is quick, the office is clean, the staff and Dr. Kwon are so nice and helpful. They tell me exactly what's going to happen and what they're going to do which make the sessions comfortable. Very professional. Would definitely recommend! read more

Dr. Kwon is the man! I don't like it when people touch my teeth but Dr. Kwon was super gentle and made everything comfortable! I am extremely happy, highly recommend! read more

With three teenaged boys who have seen three separate orthodontists, I feel uniquely qualified to write this review. The oldest son's orthodontist made scheduling difficult and had some pretty inflexible policies. My middle brace-face had a wildly popular orthodontist in La Canada who charges a FORTUNE! With the youngest, I started a new search for an orthodontic office we would like. We've struck gold with Kwon Orthodontics. First of all, the staff and doctors could not be nicer. Seriously, they are such sweet people. Second ,It's in a brand new building on Foothill in Pasdadena. I appreciate that it has really easy parking and isn't in some big medical building.. it's a stand alone which makes it quick and easy to get in and out. They are state of the art. Xrays are projected onto a gorgeous high def TV, not a little light box. The office is clean and beautiful. Their prices are good and their policies are accommodating for families on a budget. For example, the firstborn's ortho would charge $150 if my son broke a bracket on his braces. He did this multiple times.. which added up to quite a bit of extra charges. Kwon Orthodontics has no policy to charge for a broken bracket. Even if they were the most expensive (they are actually the lowest price of my three orthos), they are far and away the most pleasant to deal with. I love yelp, but i'm guilty of always looking things up and never taking the time to leave reviews. I wanted to review here because I really want other families to know what a great local orthodontic practice this is. read more

I recently finished my procedure at Kwon Ortho (February 2013). + 1 for my awesome results. I got so many compliments and I feel very confident about my smile. + 1 for AMAZING customer service.. I never had to wait for longer than 5 minutes when I came in for my appointments and they were always flexible and patient with me if I had to change my appointment time (or if I had to come in for an emergency band replacement... i have a sweet spot for gummies so this happened several times and they were always so nice about it!). +1 for an awesome ortho. Dr. Kwon always explained what he was doing to my teeth, why I would feel pain in certain areas, and what I could do to lessen the pain. + 1 for the beautiful facility. The facility is SPOTLESS and they always have something interesting playing on their tv in the waiting room... which, btw, feels more like a chic living room. +1 for the convenient location. I love that I didn't have to drive out to LA. Kwon Ortho is a solid 5 stars. I would recommend this place to any of my friends who want to have a pretty smile. read more

Braces suck. Two long years of metal mouth jokes, cut gums, food getting stuck everywhere, and pain at every tightening. But for those of you with f'ed up teeth like mine, it's a necessary evil to a winning smile. So if you have to go through with all of the suckiness braces entail, you might as well go to the best Orthodontist around. Granted, I've never had braces with anyone else, so I cant really compare, but Dr. Kwon is awesome. He's super nice, his staff is friendly, and they were always able to accommodate me when I need to change my schedule around. And most importantly, he fixed my teeth. No longer will I have to be self conscious of a snaggle-toothed smile. It's been years since I've had my braces removed and my teeth are still as perfect as can be. I cannot recommend Dr Kwon highly enough. He saved my smile, my confidence, and any prospects I have of ever getting a girl to talk to me. read more

Dr. Kwon was my older sons orthodontist and is now my youngest sons orthodontist. He is awesome! Very thorough, consistent and informative. He takes before and after profile pics to show the results which is amazing to see. We never wait more than 5 minutes to be seen, and they are very a accommodating to our schedule needs. The office is beautiful and the front desk assistants are always friendly. I highly recommend him for any child or adult orthodontist need. read more

Dr. Kwon is truly an artist. I spent 7 and a half months in braces (as an adult, ugh) with Kwon Orthodontics last year, and I was very impressed with my whole experience. I was quoted a fixed price for the work, including retainers afterwards, and all visits (including special circumstance visits - broken brackets, poking wires, etc) and equipment were covered. I've been going back for retainer fit checks, where Dr. Kwon adjusts them if needed and makes sure my teeth aren't shifting on occasion for 6 months now, and even that has been included in the original quoted price. They allow you to do monthly payments over however many months they estimate your treatment will take with no interest. Note that there is no discount for paying the entire balance upfront. It was never difficult to get an appointment. I never had to wait more than 5 minutes to be seen, and was usually ushered in right away. Lydia and the rest of the staff are fantastic! They can and will do any type of braces (assuming the method works with what you are trying to accomplish): metal, clear, damon, lingual, or Invisalign. That alone impressed me enough to make this office stand out from the get-go. I'd had consultations elsewhere where they really tried to push one method over another (for no good reason) or there were methods that they simply couldn't do. My one word of advice would be to do your own research regarding which type of braces you want before you go in. There is a ton of information on the internet and it would have helped to have had a better idea of the pros and cons of various methods so that I could have asked the right type of questions at my consultation. At the end of the day I chose traditional clear braces, and I couldn't be happier with my decision, experience, or smile. read more

I had an orthodontic treatment many years ago, and then my teeth started to shift after not wearing the retainer for a long time. I went to Dr. Kwon's office for a consultation. Instead of overselling me things that I might not need, he gave me very honest opinions and all the options I could choose from based on my needs - the prices for the 3 different plans were all very fair. The staff is very nice, the equipment is advanced, and the office is clean and neat. The waiting time was short and everyone was responsible. I'd recommend this office to my friends and take my kid to this office in the future. read more

We went to 3 different consultants before finalizing Dr. Kwon's service's. Their experience and knowledge surpasses any concerns or doubts you have going in as a parent. Both kids were comfortable with Dr.Kwon and his staff... it's no wonder they have been around for so many decades! This place is a generational practice of Orthodontists.. now how many can say that. Keep up the stellar & honest service!! read more

I went to see Dr. Kwon for the first time when I was in 6th grade. It was like one of those rites of passage during puberty. Thank goodness I didn't need to wear headgear! It was painful sometimes, but when my treatment was completed, my teeth were straight and pretty. I had to go back recently because my bottom teeth were beginning to become crooked again. I should have worn my retainers so I wouldn't have to go back, but I really wanted straight teeth and needed new retainers. Dr. Kwon fit me for the new invisalign trays. I love them! It takes some time to get used to them, but it definitely is working! I'm so glad they have a new office close by to where I live. It's really nice and kid friendly. My toddler son can watch videos on the computer in the waiting room. Also, they accept most dental insurance carriers, which is great. It didn't cost as much as I thought it would. Yay!!! read more

Started my braces 4 months ago and every time I come to the office everybody is super friendly. Every time I have an issue with my braces I receive quick responses to my emails read more

5 Stars easily ! Dr. Kwon finished my 1st child's braces beautifully and is now doing my 2nd child's braces. He is very informative and always addresses questions. The staff is great, too, very friendly and very accommodating with appointments. The office is beautiful, very clean, plexiglass, but we never have to wait much there. read more

I brought my 10 year old son into Kwon Orthodontics for a consultation and I was shocked by the lack of bedside manner that both Dr. Kwon's exhibited. They did not explain to my son what they were planning to do - nor ask his permission to do it. He is 10 years old, and this was his first experience at an orthodontist. The treatment was so shocking that we left the office before they had finished even taking photographs. If you have a younger child I would stay away from this office. read more

I went to Kwon Orthodontics for a consultation for my 10 year old son. It's a father and son practice and I don't plan on going back. Dr Kwon's English (father) is poor and the son has only been in practice for 3.5 years. I would personally want to take my son to someone with a bit more experience. Also, the thing that really turned me off from this practice is the lack of professionalism. I specifically asked for no x-rays and even took a copy of my son's x-ray from my general dentist because he just took photos a few months back. While I was in the waiting room, they ended up taking x-rays without even consulting me after I specifically asked for no x-rays. When I confronted this with Dr. Kwon junior he said that he had to take x-rays because children's teeth are constantly changing and he wanted to give me a thorough consultation. But, in my opinion, the professional approach should be to discuss this with me before the x-rays are taken, not after. Anyhow, this place seems to not really listen to what the customer wants and seems to think they know what is best for you (even better than yourself). read more

This is the best orthodontist office in the Los Angeles area! Dr. Kwon makes me feel at ease whenever I go. I always dread going into the office for a regular visit, but Dr. Kwon's skills put me at ease. Dr. Kwon's office is another thing worth mentioning. Who said an orthodontic office has to look bland and dull?? This office is nicely decorated and makes me wish my house looked like that! read more

My teeth started to move slightly and I knew I had to do something quick before it got worse! I went to Kwon Orthodontics and they recommended "Smart Moves" - a brand just like Invisalign. This helped me to get my teeth back on track and stay put! They were very accomodating with each of my appointments. A very professional business with darling receptionists. read more

I've been going here for about a year now, and I'm so glad that Dr. Kwon is the one taking care of my braces. Even though braces can be a pain, he makes sure that everything goes as smoothly as possible. Whenever I had a problem, such as going out of state for 3 months or breaking a bracket, Dr. Kwon and the staff check up on me and make sure that everything is taken care of. The staff is super friendly and accommodating as well. Kwon orthodontics is the best! read more

Want perfect teeth? Kwon Orthodontics is where it's at. Me, my friends, their mom's, cousin's and the entire Korean population has walked out of this place with a million dollar smile. Prior to starting my treatment here, I consulted with a good amount of Dr's but none was on par with the attention and service I was provided with here. Although my treatment ended shortly after the new Dr. Kwon was introduced to the office, I really felt comfortable walking in to get my braces changed monthly. Why? Because this Father-Son practice offers nothing but brilliant results and personal attention to accomodate my needs. The atmosphere is super cozy and the staff is awesome! read more

Both of my daughters just had their braces removed from Dr. Don Kwon. We chose this office because a friend in town highly recommended Dr. Kwon over Dr. Low. Apparently, Dr. Low is always overbooked with long wait times and their parking situation is a nightmare. Going with Dr. Kwon was the right choice for us. He has always been very attentive and very thorough in explaining maintenance. Our appointments are always seamless and we never wait no more than 5 minutes. My girls are extremely happy with their results! read more

I'm about 1/2 way through my invisalign treatment and I'm happy with this place. Appointments are easy, the staff is friendly and professional, and Dr Kwon (Jr.) is a little cold personality wise, but not everyone is an extrovert. Overall my experience so far has been positive, I would recommend this place to a friend. read more

I've had braces twice. I went to Dr. Kwon the second time around, and I knew I made a good choice. Friendly staff + embellished interior + most importantly... a detail-oriented Dr. Kwon. He knows exactly what he's doing and he'll make sure everything is perfecto. I just took my braces off last week and I've been getting compliments nonstop. Don't waste your time and monies elsewhere. This is the place to be :) read more

I went in for a replacement of retainers. Because I can't stand my original orthodontist, I needed to look for a new one after losing my retainers ASAP. Yesterday was my first visit in which they did the consultation, estimate, and molding of my teeth. Overall my experience for this appointment was fast, easy, and wonderful! I hate going to appointments and having to wait way past my time. It was great to finally get to see Dr. Kwon right away. Lydia, the reception that helped me was informative and nice as well as the woman that did the mold for my teeth which I didn't get a chance to catch her name. Dr. Kwon, the orthodontist was so informative!!! I didn't get the vibe that he was trying to sell me something that I don't need or to just sell me something to make profit...which is what my old orthodontist would do, ugh. He gave me great advice and also explained to me the 3 different options that I should consider and gave me logical reasoning behind the benefits for each one! Like I said VERY informative! I live about 30 minutes away, but to receive such awesome service- I don't mind driving all this way! I will be back in 2 weeks and I can't wait! :) read more

I have straight teeth that I love to show off thanks to Dr. Kwon! All my relatives have gotten their braces from him with no complaint! The staff was extremely attentive and Dr. Kwon never made me feel uncomfortable or insecure about having braces. I don't have an under bite anymore and he will ensure you that everything will be okay. It was worth the 2 years of having metal in my mouth. I still wear my retainers til this day and my teeth are still straight. If you need to fix your smile, Dr. Kwon is the way to go. read more

My two sisters and I have all gotten our braces from Dr. Kwon. He's the best! Friends of mine who didn't have Dr. Kwon all had their braces on much longer than necessary. He's one of the best out there. You won't regret it! read more

My son got his braces and full course treatment at the La Canada office. The staff are friendly, the doctor punctual, the payment plan affordable. Fast forward two years, we are looking forward to having my daughter enjoy Kwon Orthodontics services. read more
