Orthodontist in Clermont, FL, Serving South Lake Families Since 1994

Something about your kid's teeth is bothering you. Maybe the dentist pointed it out. Maybe you saw a video about mouth breathing and now you notice it every night. Crooked teeth. A bite that looks off. Or maybe it is your own smile you have put off for years. The internet has a thousand opinions about what it means.

You do not need a thousand opinions. You need one person to actually look. Dr. Robert Ogden, an orthodontist in Clermont since 1994, has been doing exactly that at his office on Citrus Tower Boulevard. The consultation is free, and you leave with a plain answer: treat it now, watch and wait, or nothing to worry about, with the price in writing before you decide anything. You walk out knowing exactly where you stand, with one less thing on your mind tonight.

Our Clermont roots

Three decades of straightening teeth in South Lake County

Dr. Ogden finished his orthodontic residency at the University of Florida in 1994 and started treating patients in Clermont that same year. The city has changed a lot since then. Many of the parents bringing their kids in today grew up here when US 27 was mostly citrus groves, and some of them sat in Dr. Ogden's chair themselves as teenagers.

That kind of continuity matters in orthodontics. Treatment runs a year or two, and growing kids are often watched for years before braces ever go on. At a practice owned by one orthodontist, you see the same doctor at every visit, from the first consultation to the day the braces come off. Your treatment plan never gets handed to whoever happens to be rotating through the office that month.

The right treatment at the right time

Treatment options at the Clermont office

Dr. Ogden does not start treatment just because a patient showed up. He starts it when the timing gives you the shortest path to a stable result. Here is what that can look like at the Clermont office.

Brackets and wires

Traditional brackets, self-ligating brackets, and custom 3D-printed LightForce. The full breakdown, including what treatment costs and what the monthly payment works out to, is on its own page.

Braces in Clermont, with pricing

Invisalign

Dr. Ogden plans every aligner case himself, and the fees are published: Touch-Up is $2,495 and Comprehensive is $4,895, the same at all three offices. If your bite would finish better in braces, he will say so at the consultation instead of selling you aligners anyway.

Early Treatment for Kids

We check kids around age seven, and most of them do not need anything yet. When growth guidance helps, tools like expanders do the work while your child is still growing. When it does not, we watch and wait instead of rushing your child into appliances.

Adults who start later

Plenty of Clermont parents start their own treatment after watching their kids finish, and the free consultation works the same way for them. Teeth that shifted after old braces are often a Touch-Up case at $2,495.

Why South Lake families choose Dr. Ogden

At Ogden Orthodontics that person is Dr. Ogden, an orthodontist who has planned and finished cases in this community since 1994 and who is the only one treating at any of the three offices.

The Clermont office sees kids starting around age seven, teens in full treatment, and adults who put their own teeth off for decades.

Cost is usually the first worry, so it gets handled up front. Your consultation is free, you get a written price before anything starts, and in-house financing is 0% interest. Schedule at the Clermont office and find out where you stand.

Common questions

Clermont orthodontist FAQ

What happens at a free consultation at the Clermont office?

Dr. Ogden examines your teeth and bite, takes any records needed, and tells you plainly whether treatment makes sense now, later, or not at all. You leave with a written price and a recommended plan. There is no obligation to start.

Do you offer Invisalign at the Clermont location?

Yes. The Clermont office provides both Invisalign and braces, and Dr. Ogden will tell you at your consultation which one fits your case. Some bites respond better to braces, and it is better to know that before you spend money on aligners. Fees are published on the Invisalign in Clermont page.

Do you treat adults at the Clermont office?

Yes. Adults are a regular part of the Clermont schedule, and the consultation is free for them too. Clear ceramic and Invisalign are the usual choices, and teeth that shifted after old braces are often an Invisalign Touch-Up case at $2,495. There is more detail on braces in Clermont.

Which office should I use if I live in Minneola, Groveland, or Four Corners?

Clermont is the closest office for Minneola, Groveland, Mascotte, Montverde, and the Four Corners area. If you are nearer Winter Garden or Oakland, the Windermere office on Maguire Road may be a shorter drive, and there is more detail on our page for Winter Garden orthodontic patients. Dr. Ogden treats patients at all three offices, and your records follow you if you ever need to switch.

How long does orthodontic treatment take?

Most cases run 12 to 24 months. The range depends on how far your teeth need to move, how your body responds, and how consistently you wear your appliances. You get a time estimate for your specific case at the consultation, not a guess.

How often will I come in during treatment?

Adjustment visits are usually every six to eight weeks. Appointments run efficiently, and the front desk works around school and work schedules, so most visits will not eat your afternoon.

Do I need a referral from my dentist?

No. You can schedule directly with our office, and many families do. We coordinate with your dentist during treatment so your cleanings and checkups stay on track.

Does dental insurance cover orthodontic treatment?

Most major dental plans include an orthodontic benefit, and our team checks yours before treatment starts so you know what is covered. Anything your plan does not cover can go on a Cherry payment plan or in-house financing.

Can I start with a virtual consultation?

Yes. If you would rather not book a visit yet, send a few photos of your teeth and the Clermont office will follow up with what Dr. Ogden sees and whether a visit makes sense. It is free and there is no obligation.
