Orthodontics for Children
Early Orthodontic Care That Supports Healthy Development
Not every child needs braces right away, but early orthodontic evaluation can reveal problems before they become more difficult to correct. Dr. Briceño Crespi has extensive experience in children’s orthodontics and is highly respected for her work in growth-focused care. By monitoring how the teeth and jaws develop, we can often identify bite concerns, crowding, spacing issues, and harmful oral habits at the right time.
Our goal is not to recommend treatment too early. Our goal is to guide development when it can make the greatest difference. For many families, early orthodontic care creates a smoother path toward a healthier and more balanced smile in the future. […]

Orthodontics for Teens
Modern Treatment Options for a Smile They Will Feel Good About
The teen years are one of the most common and effective times to begin orthodontic treatment. At Miami Lakes Orthodontics, we make the process easier with modern options that fit busy schedules, active lifestyles, and appearance concerns. Teens can benefit from Invisalign Teen, clear braces, or traditional braces with color options that make treatment more personal.
We know orthodontic treatment during adolescence can feel like a big step for both parents and teens. That is why we focus on education, comfort, and realistic treatment planning from the first consultation forward. Our team works closely with each family to keep the process organized, encouraging, and results-driven. […]

Adult Orthodontics
A Straighter Smile Is Not Just for Kids
More adults than ever are choosing orthodontic treatment, and many are doing it for the first time. Some want to improve the appearance of their smile. Others are dealing with shifting teeth, bite issues, crowding, or relapse from earlier treatment. Whatever the reason, adult orthodontics can deliver life-changing results with options that are more discreet and convenient than many patients expect.
At Miami Lakes Orthodontics, we offer adult-friendly treatment options such as Invisalign and clear braces, along with personalized care plans built around your goals and routine. It is never too late to invest in your smile, your confidence, and your long-term oral health. […]

Trusted Orthodontic Specialist in Miami Lakes
Dr. Carmen Briceño Crespi is a board-certified orthodontic specialist known for her academic excellence, advanced clinical training, and patient-first approach. She earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Miami, graduated at the top of her dental class from the University of Florida, and completed her orthodontic specialty training at Baylor College of Dentistry, where she also earned a Master’s degree in Oral Biology.
Her research on miniscrew implants received the prestigious Milo Hellman Award from the American Association of Orthodontists, recognizing one of the most outstanding orthodontic research papers submitted by a resident in the United States and Canada. She also serves as an attending faculty member at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, where she helps lead the orthodontic curriculum for pediatric dental residents. For patients and parents in Miami Lakes, that means care from a doctor whose credentials are not just impressive on paper, but meaningful in real treatment outcomes.
Why Board Certification Matters
Not every orthodontist is board certified. Board certification through the American Board of Orthodontics represents an additional level of achievement beyond dental school and orthodontic residency. It reflects advanced knowledge, demonstrated clinical skill, and a continued commitment to excellence in diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient care.
For families choosing orthodontic treatment, that matters. It means you are placing your smile in the hands of a specialist who has met rigorous standards in the field of orthodontics. At Miami Lakes Orthodontics, board-certified care is one of the reasons patients trust us with everything from early growth issues and teen braces to complex adult treatment planning.
