Meet Our Doctors

At Gladwell Orthodontics, we go the extra mile before, during, and after your treatment

Led by Dr. Jason Gladwell, recognized as one of Raleigh's top orthodontists, our team treats every patient like family from your very first scan to the day your braces come off.

A Team of Orthodontists
Across the Triangle

Choosing an orthodontist is a big decision, and it helps to know who will be looking after your smile. Our team of seven orthodontists treats children, teens, and adults at seven offices across the Triangle, from Wake Forest, Rolesville, and Zebulon to North Raleigh, Downtown Raleigh, Durham, and Southpoint Mall.

Every doctor on our team follows the same standard of care that Dr. Jason Gladwell has built since 2007. That means a 3D scan for every patient, a treatment plan built around your goals, and a clear explanation of each step before it happens. Whether you are considering braces or Invisalign®, you will work with a doctor who takes the time to get to know you.

What Our Patients Are Saying

This is one of the best if not THE best Orthodontist office I have been to. Staff is super friendly and clean. The orthodontists are also super friendly and explain the plans for the teeth well. They have a Starbucks inside and it’s free, the donations for the Starbucks go to a local charity or organization who needs it. I think that is my favorite part, not only are they helping my kids have better smiles but they care so much they give back to the local community as well. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for an orthodontist any day. They are great!!

Love Gladwell Orthodontist. My two kids got two different services here. One got Invisalign® and the other got braces. I was very pleased with the results. The staff is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend them.

Great experience. Both of my sons were in for evaluations. My youngest has special needs and was very anxious. They took great care of both my boys but especially my youngest. Everyone took their time with us explaining all our options and going over treatment plans in detail. The entire staff was very professional and very friendly. Highly recommend!

A fantastic office that is very friendly and inviting. We had a great experience here with our sons consultation. The staff and office is well organized and entertaining for the other kids to stay occupied while their brother was being seen. Dr. Ricci was awesome with our son and very open through with her examination and explanation of the issues both present and possibly in the future. We are very happy with this office and glad we were referred here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Our Orthodontists

Which office will my orthodontist be at?

Many of our doctors see patients at more than one office. Use the office buttons above to see who practices at each location, then select View Bio to learn more about any doctor.

What is the difference between an orthodontist and a dentist?

An orthodontist is a dentist who has completed additional specialty training in moving teeth and aligning the jaws. Your family dentist keeps your teeth and gums healthy, and your orthodontist straightens your teeth and corrects your bite. Keep seeing your dentist for regular cleanings and checkups throughout your orthodontic treatment.

What happens at my first visit?

Your first visit is an initial consultation. You will meet our team, and we will:

Review your dental and medical history forms
Complete an oral exam, with X-rays, to see whether treatment is needed
Create a customized treatment plan with you
Go over costs, insurance options, and payment plans

How often will I see my orthodontist during treatment?

Most patients visit about every four to eight weeks. Keeping those appointments helps your treatment stay on schedule.

Do your doctors treat adults?

Yes. Our orthodontists treat children, teens, and adults. Many adults choose Invisalign® clear aligners because they are nearly invisible.

Do your doctors offer Invisalign®?

Yes. Gladwell Orthodontics is the #1 Invisalign® provider in North Carolina and #2 in the U.S. Your doctor will help you decide whether Invisalign® or braces is the better fit for your smile.
