I had an outstanding experience here. You walk in, every one there just makes you feel like royalty. The atmosphere is great that even the patients are nice! Lol. Marlene was just wonderful and went above and beyond. She follows uShow morep and never forgets you, she explained everything, walked me through all the details, she is there all the way, she even gave me a tour which made me feel at ease. Dr. Nelson is amazing, she takes her time explaining everything and walking you through all pics and X-rays to let you know what to expect what type of treatment is best for you. Prices are reasonable compared to other places and that includes a one year follow up after the treatment among other things. I would 100% recommend this place.

I had a great experience at Metro Ortho with clear aligners. Dr. Nelson and the rest of her staff are all super friendly and knowledgeable. My teeth look great now and recommend anyone considering clear aligners to come to Metro OShow morertho! Only one suggestion - after when you finish it up your treatment and ready to get Bonded retainers before that go to your dentist and do check up first ( cleaning, crowns, root canals etc) otherwise you’ll double pay for that. Each one cost you 500$.

About Dr. Kristin Nelson, DDS, MSD

Metropolitan Orthodontics was founded on the belief that everyone deserves the best possible smile. Under the leadership of Kristin Nelson, DDS, MDS, the practice delivers top quality orthodontic care to the community of Fairfax, Virginia, helping people of all ages enjoy healthier smiles.

Dr. Nelson brings an impressive academic and professional background to her work at Metropolitan Orthodontics. She earned her undergraduate degree in physiology and neurobiology at the University of Maryland (UMD) in College Park. 

She went on to complete her dental degree at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry and further expanded her skills and knowledge with a Master of Science at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in Richmond.

Advancements in dental technology have vastly improved orthodontic care. Not long ago, traditional metal braces were the only option for improving teeth alignment. Today, people have access to a wide array of tools and techniques that deliver safe, predictable, and beautiful results.

At Metropolitan Orthodontics, every patient is treated as a valued member of the practice family. This is not a setting where people and appointments are rushed. Dr. Nelson and her team take the time to get to know each patient and learn what they hope to achieve through orthodontic treatment. 

Options include traditional braces, clear braces, tray aligner systems, accelerated braces, and much more. Both children’s orthodontics and adult orthodontics are available because no one is too old to enhance their smile.  

Younger patients love the reward system for keeping up with dental hygiene and arriving on time for appointments. The team works hard to make visits both fun and productive. 

Residents of Fairfax, Virginia, who want to learn more about orthodontic care should schedule a consultation at Metropolitan Orthodontics online or by phone. Virtual consultations are also an option.
